Hey, four lbs is a nice sized fish, trophy size even. It has no bearing on your bait, because fish don’t get to be big if they are dumb. It’s all presentation, time, and location. Try live, surface, and imitation baits in morning and evening, with spinners, buzzbaits, and diving plugs in the afternoon. Play the live baits and such shallow, while the afternoon baits work best in the deeper water. My best bass was 4.5 lbs, but we didn’t mount it.
I have done really well with crayfish and shiners/suckers for bait…with no sinkers.
It depends on where your fishing. It doesn’t matter what presentation you have or what your fishing with if the body of water doesn’t have any or very few 4+ pound bass. I caught a 7 pound largemouth in a heavily stocked farm pond in missouri using a worm and a zebco and it was 4+ every cast. Was it because I was a great fisherman? no. If you really want, guaranteed, big bass you have to go to big bass lakes or ponds preferably with a local bassman or bass guide in the south or reservoirs in the south west. End of discussion
