A 12 ga. in number 7 1/2 or 8 shot works, but it disturbs thing quite a bit LOL! I have always tried to throw something a little bit different and a little bit slower. More often than not, If I am throwing a spinnerbait, I will usually follow up with a fluke. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.

That's funny right there!
I know this is going to sound funny but it does work alot of the time. Take your rod tip and make a figure 8 and this will cause the crankbait or swimbait to turn and swim toward the bass causing the bass to hit the lure due to a reaction strike. If you catch the fish GREAT!! put your bass in the livewell and tie on a different color and speedup your retrieve . If you don't catch the bass tie on a different color, speedup your retrieve and hope you have better luck.
Thanks for all the help! I'm always afraid of fishing too fast but if you say "speed up!" then I sure will and I'd rather throw a 1/2 oz spinnerbait than a 3/8oz anyday. I'm going back Saturday so I'll report how everything works out.

As tempting as it sounds I'll skip the shotgun trick for now. lol

I just usually give up........BREAK my crap over my knee........SLAM the throttle down, and go home to drink some bud light........ :) :)
Just some things you cannot MAKE them thar fish do, and that is eat.
AND then I get to hear from all my buddies, how they kicked the CRAP out of the fish........
Or I get to watch my buddy fish oh say 50 yards from me, and WHACK the CRAP out of a few 4 pounders, and lose a 10 pounder..........
BUT hey........that's fishin.
Later,
