Ladies and gentlemen I am in search of knowledge. Curious to know of peoples approach to deep water. Now that being said, the 20-30+ Foot depth is a mystery to me. Trying to expand my ability offshore. Tossing wacky rigs up under docks  and around shallow cover lands me a good deal of my fish currently. Would anyone would be kind enough to tell me then When/Where/why? Of deeper water fishing, time of year?,tempature, hours and baits you would use for getting A bite. 

thanks - Mike. 

When I go deep (over 30’) it is with a jig or spoon.  I’m normally fishing points, bluffs or bluff ends.  Spoons I vertical jig at what ever depth I want.  With jigs I like to have the boat in 50’ of water casting to more shallow and working it back.

 

The under 30’ depths get jigs, shaky, tubes or Trigs.

Drop shot?

Fishing deep is no different than fishing shallow, get a lure in front of fish.

Structure + cover + food source = bass
