Sometimes when summer stretches long into fall, when it’s hot but the fishing’s not, that’s when you may need to slow way down to get the bass to take a look at your lure. So slow is the retrieve, so minimal the lure’s movement, that anglers expert in this nearly do-nothing game have a name for it: dead-stickin’. On a lake fringed with cypress and tinged with tannin, warm as bath water, Shaw and his guest Darrell Pons show how it’s done — or not done.
