So ive been doing some fishing this past weeks and for me the wacky style rig for my worms have been great and also the spinner bait bite has been awsome.. But im up in here in upstate ny and the water in the big lake by sleepy hollow is at 57 degrees. i fish alot of ponds and such more than i fish at the lake. Im having trouble right now getting those big boys to play with my lure.. i just picked up some more tubes which ill try tomorrow but ive noticed with my worms on the 3rd or 4 th fall / flutter i get a hit which is making me think these bass are suspened off the banks a 6-10 feet of water.. crank baits havnt been working spinner bait bite is on and off. Im really trying to key on a big bass to keep me at ease for the rest of the fall.. i was thinking an umbrella rig . big swimbait.. also jerk bait ive tried too. theres so many article on here about turnovers and where fish/ how to fish. them im catching plenty of bass im not complaining by any means. just a little insight for big bass.

Ive used rat-L traps as well.. i was thinking a big spoon.. or get a nice fat jig and putting some real bait on there

went out today using a white charturse gold balded chatter bait trailer with a cream/ silver flaked tube.. laned a 6 ppound hog.. also tons of hits on my 10 inch culprit saw tailed worms in chili peper. then switched to a wacky style senko half green half white.. thanks for the tips fellas
