Bass Fisher55

I definitely want to try this lure out, I had a bag of zooms once but never used them. The watermelon red bait is totally off color, definitely want to try it.

They overall are a better lure to use in summer, but you should other baits to mix it up once and awhile.

Very cool, this doesn't happen quite often with bass.

Decent day of fishing, Walleye always tend to hang out where the smallies are.

Like Wayne P. says, if all fails try live bait such as minnows. If you don't catch anything then, they could be carp or other fish that don't eat minnow type bait. I would try deep diving crankbaits and if you can, try trolling them.

Try topwater such as the Zara Spook. I'm always partial to twitch soft plastic on inland lakes.

I find that soft plastic worms you can twitch across the top are great. Banjo minnow is just dynamite on ponds.

I noticed that too for some ponds and inland lakes, I think it's because minnows and bluegill hang out near the shoreline.

Get a small net for your kayak

In the reeds!

That's for sure, dam Asian carps will probably be in the Great Lakes in no time. I saw that show too though, was very interesting. But I never heard of anyone catching a Piranha in my area. I'm sure as more people watch the movie Piranha 3d, they'll be on the number 2 list with Great Whites.

Beautiful fish, love the yellow fin underneath it. Still haven't tried fishing saltwater, I'm gonna have to try doing it one of these days.

Pause, jerk, pause jerk. Sometimes waiting really long can bring the bass out of the weeds.

Every time I tried doing it through weeds and muck, always tend to get weeds stuck on my hook. I'll have to try getting a weedless hook.

Totally agree, only caught a few bass near foating docks. Permanent docks seem to hold a lot more fish.
