Wesley Strader doesn't like fishing a weightless Senko. To him, it's like watching paint dry. Unfortunately, we can't always fish the way we would like to, conditions don't always permit Strader to go down the bank with a power technique.

Learn these tips for finesse fishing with power tackle, if you want to catch lazy bass in less-than-ideal conditions without putting down your baitcaster and 16lb fluorocarbon.
