Stickbaits (Rapala X-Rap is great for this) and swimming grubs (4″ Berkley Power Grub on 1/4oz jighead) is an effective smallmouth bait year ’round. If it aint broke, don’t fix it.

All 3 are great for catching Bass in large ponds and small lakes. Spinnerbaits- In a pond situation, I would stick with single Colorado bladed SB’s in 1/4-3/8 OZ size. Use heavier Mono line (14-17LB) to keep the SB from rocketing to the bottom. (Most Pro Bass fishermen use heavier Mono for SB’s because it has a high floating characteristic and more line drag due to diameter.) A Single Colorado bladed SB can be burned on the top of the water mimicing a fleeing Shiner/Shad or Frog AND can be slow-rolled in deeper water. If there is a large population of Shiner/Shad IN the lake/pond you fish, then double Willows can be productive. How to fish a SB? The most important thing to remember about SB fishing is to KEEP MOVING. Pepper an area and then move down the shore- SB fishing should NOT be as slow as Soft Plastics fishing, (unless your slow rolling). That is one of the main issues most new Bass fishermen have with SB’s. A novice fisherman should utilize a SB as a “search bait”. However, someone with more experience could use a SB exclusively all day and do quite well.Make sure to vary your retrieve! That is the KEY to SB’s! Crankbaits- In a small lake/pond situation I would suggest you use Cranks in the correct depth. Color and depth rule Cranks! The depth of the lure also designates how and where you will fish it and what color it should (generally) be. Using Rattle Trap type lures are a fantastic way to find “active fish” – you would burn these at the depth you wanted. Cordell Spots are a good generic lure of this type that is cheap and productive- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_44610____SearchResultsFloating Cranks should generally be burned. If your fishing in gin clear water go with less bright colors, otherwise try Reds, Chartreuse, Sexy Shad, and Brown & Green Crawdad colors. For outside weedbeds in 12-15 FT try fishing a 8-10FT running depth Crank. For clipping the tops of weeds try a Manns 1- …..Etc. Use the corresponding depth seeking Crank for where you think the fish are holding. Soft Plastics- SP’s are probably going to be your most popular lure. Senko type worms rigged “Wacky Style” is all the rage currently, but “Texas-rigged” can be just as effective Use Soft Plastics around any shallow water, weedy, structure where a “weedless lure” is vital. Best “general” colors? Black/Blue, Black, Junebug, Pumpkinseed, Watermelon & Red Shad. This is all “basic” information. Add more info about the lake and the conditions you will be fishing in and you could get an even better “hypothesis”. However, some days Bass are finicky little sh*ts who want some crazy technique or lure. You just never know! But, I hope this helps you anyway? Good fishing.UPDATE: LMAO!!!!!! James you rock! (I know I should stop writing “books” for answer’s and let some of my fellow Bass fishermen get a word in edgewise, but I get so dang excited to talk about fishing I end up lose’n my mind! lol). I think James should get Best Answer- I agree with everything he said! (LOL)Good to see you back Wormist!

sure you can fish worms like that — it’s going to put a twist in your line. I don’t know many people who do.many people don’t realize it, but a plastic worm isn’t a worm imitation at all, it’s a fish imitation.striped bass are saltwater fish that spawn in freshwater. they are adapted to freshwater environments, and stocked in many reservoirs that have enough deep water to stay cold enough year round, many in Arkansas in Texas that I know of. They need fast moving current in order to spawn successfully, so most freshwater stripers are hatchery fish, stocked annually. About 100 miles from me is Lake Texoma which has one of the few self sustaining freshwater striper populations.

In my honest opinion i always use medium sized crank baits. Big cranks may be too big, and small cranks may be too small. But medium sized cranks seem to be just right, even a small bass will hit a medium sized crank, same with a big bass to. If the medium size doesn’t work, try the smaller size. Good Luck

Don’t know who made it because I found it hooked in the mouth of a dead 5 pound largemouth.It’s a medium spinnerbait and has black fade to green fade to chartreuse tails with 2 chartreuse/silver blades. I’ve ran that thing up and down in 50 different spots with several types of Berkeley Powerbaits as well as no bait at all and have more fish on it than can count.Biggest fish I caught on it was a 19 pound Sheepshead at the Matabetchewan Hydro Plant. Biggest largemouth was 7.17lbs.out of Lake Temiskaming, Ontario, biggest smalley was 6.4 lbs. out of Lady Evelyn Smoothwater, Ontario. Even landed a 14 pound Northern Pike and a 4.5 lb. Walleye on the sucker.I even have a special container for it and treat it like my best buddy. LOL

For all 3 it depends on the water clarity… if the water is cleear and there is good visibility I go with red/white or Chartruse or a blue color.. for dark or stained water I always use a dark color like brown, black, purple, dark blue. The darker colors make a better outline for the fish to se and they will hit it more frequently. I found with trout, in lakes, using a light color fly like a wooly bugger they wouldn’t hit it as often but when I swithced to a dark color like dark olive or black the fight was on. match your lure color to the water clarity and you’ll fill the cooler quicker. As far as noise, for bass and such the color as well as the noinse will get you better results. The noinse lets them home in and when they see the bait or outline they hit. Good luck and tight lines!

Each hardbait you can buy down at the sporting goods store is designed to attract fish one way or another. The usefulness in having many different kinds is that you can match your technique to the location of the fish. It’s not that bass don’t bite on such-and-such bait at all, it’s usually that the fish are at a certain depth in the lake and you are required to fish that depth, if you want to catch them. For starters, get a basic tackle box set up, with examples of each category of artificial bait available for you to pick from when you are fishing. For bass, it’s never a bad idea to have some soft body Culprit worms around. There are other brands, and I’m sure that some are good, but I’ve always used Culprit and been satisfied. If you are fishing in water with lots of snags, you can opt for “snagless” worms that rig up with the hook concealed in a little pocket, so that it won’t set on anything until a fish tugs at the worm. This is always helpful, because bass prefer structure and cover, and you will snag up a lot while bass fishing in the best spots. One of my all-time favorite go-to lures for bass has always been a good Hula Popper. It’s a topwater lure with a skirt on one end, and a wide concave face. The motion created by it’s shape attracts bass fairly well, and it is a very common artificial bait. Even if you decide not to include one of these in your tackle box, you should get yourself one or two topwater lures for when the fish are striking near the surface. Midwater hard body baits are some of my favorite to catch bass on. It’s a good idea to have many different midwater lures onhand, so that you can match your lure to the water conditions. In clear water, you can use lures that are camoflauged or colored naturally. If the water is muddy, though, or if it is too overcast, you will need to switch to a more brightly-colored lure. Get a good smattering of all sorts of midwater lures in lots of different sizes and colors, and you will have a good chance of dropping exactly what the fish want on any given day. Also not a bad idea for your tackle box are spinners and spoons. I keep half a dozen spoons in my tackle because they are very versatile and can be jigged, trolled, or fished as a normal midwater lure. These can come in a variety of different profiles, but the only two factors that I ever really bother with considering are size and texture. You will be able to find many different textures, ranging from smooth to hammered metal, and each one has different reflective behaviors. Spinners are fit with a special “propeller” near the front of the lure that chops through the water during a retrieve, spinning and reflecting light as well as causing some disturbance in the surrounding water. I carry a light and a dark spinner, but you can certainly find a huge variety of colors and designs on these too. Rapalla makes some good bass lures, and you can pick from an absolute arsenal of their gear at most sporting goods stores. There are many bass lures with strange gimmicks that claim to drive fish nuts – and some of them work – but for my purposes I usually find money better spent on basic tackle. You may not want to shell out five or six bucks apiece for twenty different Rapalla lures to start with, so of course there is always the off-brand. I’d say that about half of my tackle box is big brand name gear, and half is cheap generic tossers. After all, you WILL be losing a few of these, so don’t break the bank gearing up.
