newbie needs some bass help (bank fishing)

[tracker4stroke]

one i would try is a sinko work without a weight i love those in pumkin seed i have caught more bass on those around docks. tkoss it back in the slip and let it sink. it will wiggle on the way down jig it and work it you will lean the way the bass like it and there you go

If you have never tried a zoom horney toad I would give that a try. Fish it weight less on top, and if you get around cover you can let it flutter down. I have caught hundreds of bass on this lure the biggest 5-2.

I think over the 35+ years that I've been fishing, I've caught more fish on
a. Live bait
b. a cheap white spinner bait (2-3 bucks at Wally World). They may not have all been monsters but, I've caught everything from a 5 pound largemouth to crappie and bluegills with them.

I've also had luck with white in-line spinners(rooster tails)and beetle spins in ponds.
