I love Buzz baits and Big Poppers,
I have no links but no need for it
Like power point presentations
LM bass:
okay. start with plastic worms. get an assortment. sizes/colors.
add to this some soft plastic topwaters. rage tail shad and toads by strike king. 5/0 or 6/0 extra wide gap offset hook.
a few spinner/buzz baits. different blade styles and different colors but mostly white/chartreuse. be sure to have a couple colorado blades in the mix.
l like (love) rico poppers by lobina lures but they’re just so damn expensive. l wade into the lake to retrieve hung ones and there is no body contact allowed.
rebel pop-rs and zara spooks by heddon round out what l use most.
l don’t use many crankbaits. sorry, you’re on your own. just match them to the shad or whatever your local forage is.
SM bass:
downsize these for smallmouth.
don’t forget the float ‘n’ fly combo for them though. and the regular assortment of smallmouth jigs.
dare devil red/white 1/4 oz
Spinnerbait
Crankbait
Jigs
Jerkbaits
My favorite is the top and middle water crayfish lure. That thing drives fish crazy. I get hit after hit. Its amazing. Its the next best thing from live minnows.
I like plastic lizards,worms,crank baits and plastic minnows.All in different colors.For both small and large mouth bass,along with crappie.
Depending on the time of the year, Bass will hit just about anything that moves and looks real. I mostly use soft plastics with a lot of action for both large and smallies. You can get a profile at http://mylunker.com and ask the people there…they have monster bass photos and videos on their profile
There are two bass fishing lures that I like to use that have brought me a lot of success. One is a spinning lure called a rooster tail and the other is a floating lure called the hula popper.
The rooster tail has a tube shaped body, a spinning blade and a treble hook. It comes in may sizes, colors and shapes. Just cast it out and retrieve it at a quick, steady speed to ensure the blade spins. Occasionally, work your rod to make the rooster tail twitch, giving the illusion that the lure is in distress.
The hula popper is a great lure for catching big largemouth bass. The hula popper has a unique shaped popping head that makes noise in the water and a hula skirt that attracts fish. There are many different colors and variations. The best time to use the hula popper is at night and in the warmer months. After you cast it, wait until the ripples disappear, then twitch it occasionally while keeping the line tight, so that you’re ready to set the hook when a bass strikes.
Both lures can be found at any store that sells fishing tackle. I have had a lot of success with catching largemouth bass using both lures. I never go fishing without them. I hope you try them out and they bring you success as well.
I’ve always had my best luck on jigs… either with plastic worms or crayfish or even frogs. Lately Berkley Gulp is me favorite.
I’ve also had luck on some topwater plugs… and spinner/ buzzbaits, with various skirts. Best of luck.
