Depends on the time of year.Early spring right before spawning they'll be more aggressive and likely to feed(especially when the barometric pressure is low).So things like Jitterbugs,Hula Poppers and spinner baits (use red in early spring because crayfish are much more red in the early spring) at a moderately to very fast withdrawal rate.
Mid spring while they're on the nest with eggs or watching their frye a plastic salamander bounced 3 feet from the bottom then back while you retrieve will cause a very aggressive response.Salamanders eat their eggs so they're very wary of them.
For any plastic worms or jigs I prefer Berkley Power Bait because you can finesse fish with them and not have to worry about the fish spitting it out before you get a chance to set the hook.
Like every other fish,bass are opportunistic feeders.Mimicking the movements of a dying or injured fish is generally most effective,slugos being one of the best,though you can mimic this with any jig or plastic bait.ALL fish feed more actively during low pressure atmospheric conditions.

It somewhat relies upon on the section in which you're fishing and many years i've got got here across specific baits paintings extra valuable than others. I even have had large success with spinners in distinctive distinctive circumstances. I additionally like looking a blue gill mattress in shallow water and dragging a floating minnow bait over acceptable it. many of the biggest bass I even have caught have been in this way.

Wow this is kinda and open ended question. Based on time of yr, type of water i.e. cold or hot and depth,vegetation and weather. So i will make this kinda easy on you. Bass normally strike a lure out of aggression, I preffer H&H spinners ( but i can only find them in Louisiana) , Tequila sunrise rubber worms, or if the water is deep enough i will use a mid crank bait. The big thing is that what they bite one day may not be the same for the next. Good luck to you !!

Yamamoto Senko is the best bait bar none. All youy have to do is texas rig it with out weight and cast it into likely bass hide outs and let it settle to the bottom . Watch your line carefully . If it twitches or moves set the hook. This bait way out fishes everything. That's why every pro has at least one rod rigged with senkos at all times. They even out produce live bait. If you can't find senkos , kiname flash or Tiki worms(you can find them both at walmart) will also work well and are both similar to senkos with the kiname flash being the better of those two. Good luck! :)

I have good luck with spinnerbaits. I use a T1 red series because they are tough and durable. Chart. & white is my favorite color. You can get them at Walmart or bass pro shops. When the water is cold, cast a spinnerbait out and reel it in at a moderate pace. About every 20 ft stop reeling a few seconds, then start reeling. A bass will usually strike when you pause. I also use 7" lizards made by zoom, with a 3/0 hook. watermelon seed is my favorite color for lizards.

Plastic baits like worms,lizards I use slugos fished at different speeds.When you feel a strike wait a couple of seconds before you set the hook.It takes practice but it is well worth it.
