  • Drag / Hop: Maintain subtle bottom contact with short movements and pauses.
  • Dead-Stick: Let the bait sit when bass are inactive or heavily pressured.

Natural colors are strong choices in clear water, while darker or higher-contrast colors can help in stained water and lower-light conditions.
