lures for bass fishing in the day??
Posted by Best Bass Fishing Lures on Wednesday, September 1st, 2010
hi iv been fishing for the last week off my dock in shallow water, and i caught 1 bass with a buzzbait but after that i didnt even get a bite. It was really cold and rainy that week. so i took a break on friday and the weather got warm and sunny so this morning i went out onto my dock to cast a couple times i here 3 big splashes right under my dock then i looked in the water and saw a couple bass just laying there anyways there are all of a sudden just a ton of bass everywhere ( not just under the docks but in the water next to my dock that will eventually be covered with lillys. i have always had most of my success fishing with a hula popper in the evening but i would like to know what i should throw out there to catch some of them IN THE DAY.
ps this is in Minnesota and there is some milfoil keeping me from fishing at the bottom of the lake and the water is about 4 or 5 ft deep at the most thanks
ps there are also tons of huge carp just chillin with the bass if that means anything

You could also get a good distance AWAY from your dock and pitch a Tube with a 1/8oz weight inserted to them. Plastic lizards could also be the ticket.
I say “plastics, plastics, plastics”. Particularly T-rigged worms, T-rigged lizards, and tubes.

just make sure that u know how to use a top water and u buy one that reflects alot. i would buy at least 2. one that is light and one that is dark. both of them should reflect light a little though.

stevenon 01 Sep 2010 at 11:22 am 4texas rig a weightless senko . cast to the fish and let fall on slack line. a 4 inch green pumkin on a 2/0 or3/0 widegap hook should do the trick.
