Looking for tips from guys that do this. I haven't used this method a lot and I would like to learn more about it.

There are a couple locals that do well with a hollow belly reeled about 6" under the surface. They throw it right against the bank and fish it parallel to the bank. When a bass rolls on it they go to see if it is bedding.

If any of you do this I would like to hear about your bait setup and your technique.

I have done that with a Bomber long A, buzz bait, or a bunch of other lures. All your trying to do is make the bass show itself. If your presenting a bluegill swim bait the bass will pop it to keep it out of the bed and away from eating eggs or fry... But they will also do it with any bait and most of the time once they show themselves it might take other methods to actually catch them. If your using a moving bait most of the time your fishing off colored water. It is a way to pinpoint the bed without see them either because of depth or stained or muddy conditions.

I use smaller swimbaits during pre-spawn, spawn and post-spawn. I don't usually bring out the 6" baits until summer and then use them until winter. I like to throw Shadalicious swims in 4.5 inch after spawn and usually throw a tiny tim swimbait or small fluke before and during spawn. I fish spawn conditions like I do post front - sloooooow!
