I mostly use a Zoom Baby Brushhog Texas rigged. But I also love using little bluegill, culprit worm, Jitterbug, and a Rapala X-Rap.

I found these purple worms with a pink tip that are rigged with 6 inches of line and have three weedless hooks along the length of the worm. they are about 6 inches long and the pink tip is a different weight so the worm twirls when it is retrieved. They are just some off brand from wal-mart, but I kill bass with them.

thats how I caught a bass the other day actually bassmaster. I reeled it in and just let it drop right at the edge of the weedline near the shore. the bass just inhaled it. lol. never caught a bluegill on one yet.

i like to use the storm 4in swim bait. especially in deep shore lines. good for strip pits. and its a workout too. repeated casting makes me tired lol. if you know you have big bass in a pond use a stick bait from strike king call big tex. its a coffee blend sent to mask human sent. hook it with a 5/0 or 6/0 there big. hook it weedless its going to to be horizontal bait. no sinker what so ever. cast as far as you can. more you cover water the better chance to catch a big fish. that's my motto. i like to use it in flats or deep cover. over bent shrubs, and docks. always takes your time with this bait. fish it slow as possible. let the bass takes the bait. i usually wait about 10 seconds till i set the hook. that might be long but industries and technology has gone so far making baits for fish to hold on to them. there aint nothing better (except deer hunting) than a feeling of a 8lb or bigger large mouth on the end of the line. i hope this helps people it works for me. p.s. if nothing works use a rooster tail so you don't get skunk on the water. i seen people catch cats, bluegills, bass, crappie, pike, shiners, rock bass, small mouth, ware mouth, gar, heck even a turtle. thanks good luck

i love using crank baits, spinner baits, and buzz baits. I rarely use soft plastics but if I do I will use a zoom baby brush hog or a worm.
