I must receive hundreds of e-mails and phone calls from anglers all over the world (USA, Africa, Japan, Europe, Canada, Mexico, Etc...) asking what type(s) of baits I use for catching big bass. This is a BIG subject! for many anglers and I usually answer these inquiries suggesting a few different baits that will predominately perform for them catching bigger bass than they have caught before, especially when most of them explain what baits they are already using to catch bass.
This is the easy part! but next, they want to know how to present (or work) these certain baits around the many different structures in the many unfamiliar bodies of water that contain current, different water colors (stained,
semi-stained, muddy, and crystal clear), vegetation, water depths, rocky areas, brush, cliff drops, and on and on. Yes, they seem to hit me with about every scenario an angler would come up against on any body of water.
In this article I hope to help some of the anglers that might be wondering the same things all these other anglers are asking about. One of the first things you need to know or at least understand is that you will have slow days on any body of water at just about any given time. This means that just because you may learn different patterns & techniques for catching big bass that will work great for you one day don’t necessarily mean that they will work the same the next.
This could happen for many different reasons, but mostly because of the changing daily conditions such as rain, wind, clouds, pressure fronts, clear sky situations, water temperatures, just for an example. I teach a 3-Day Bass Fishing School which is located in upstate New York on Lake Champlain and Lake George which are two totally different bodies of water.
