Man there are libaries full of books about the subject of bass fishing nad every one of us has there own personal favorite way, for me plastic worms texas and wacky rigged are my bread and butter but alot has to do with the time of year the water you fish so on and so forth the best thing to do is to hit the water ask some folks you see out there go to local bait stores fisherman might not tell you where they fish but th will sure tell you how they fish. There are alot of good resources on this site give them a good read and then ask the questions you may have from what I have seen from these good folks they are more than willing to give advice Dave Stewart is one Jim Dickins and many others are listed at the opening page. good luck and by the way there are times when if I could catch a small mouth every couple of hours I would not complain a bit
