What kind of Top Water bait should I get for very muddy dark water? Also what colors should I get for fishing bass?

How do I rig up a Yamasenko and fish it? Just throw it and drag it across the bottom?

Looks like a nice bait, but I've never caught *anything* on anything other than a worm, and plastic worms. :

I believe if they cant see it, they just react on impulse. Movement and such.

Thanks. I bought a Rapala DT06 tonight, going to try to use it tomorrow at the lock. Thanks for the help.

All of my plastics

Here's my tackle box

I'll get a picture of my tackle box and post it later so you guys can see what I'm working with

What color tackle should I use for very merky water? Visibility down is about 5 inches ( :-? ) Color of water is greenish brown.

I do have good sized tackle. I just throw a tiny piece of worm on a hook and drop it off the edge of the dock and the sunnys go crazy and I just pull them up. ;D That's after I get so bored of not getting any bites. :-/ Erie Canal, not Erie Lake! ;D

I can't catch anything! I'm new to fishing, but I do go fishing about 3 times a week. I go to the Locks (Lock 7 Mostly At Night) on the Erie Canal and Saratoga Lake in NY. I have a bunch of fishing stuff, most what I've seen being used on here, but I have caught nothing all year besides off of a Rapala lure I threw in first time and caught a 7lb largemouth. Didn't catch anything after that. All I catch are little sunnys, little perch and maybe some tiny bass. I can only fish off shore or off a dock unfortunately. I've seen 20lb Carp being brought up off of Lock 7 and some decent sized catfish. Also heard some nice Bass also. I have tubes, yum craw, lizards, Rage Tail Frogs, chatterbait(white), Daredevil, some spinners, and all kinds of assorted stuff. I'd like to get some GY prosenko but I don't know how to rig it up. Any Help?

Dicks has GY baits, but no Kreature's. I've been looking for them :-/

Where can I fish some trout in Upstate NY? I went to Thompsons Lake by Thatcher Park and there's one sign that says there's trout, but there's only one place to fish from publicly on the entire lake. I can only fish off docks and boat launches.
