Night Fishing Lakes for Bass

[dmase]

I usally go a little larger with my t-riged baits at night. I am not afraid to throw 10 and 11 inch curly tail worms. A 1/2oz #8 single gold colorado spinnerbait ,black with a 6 in. red shad curly tail worm trailer. A big bomber #7 red craw crankbait. A black or black and blue Jig (with rattles) with a craw trailer (paca)
As always at night juice up your offerings with you favorite scent Yum- Bang ect. These have never failed me.

Not trying to divert the thread, but when you guys are T-rigging those baits, how much weight are you using? Egg-sinkers?

If and when I do night fish for Bass - generally I'm T-rigging or crankin.
When T-rigging - I'm usually throwing a 4" Gene Larew Craw w/rattle inserted. And the color is green w/orange claws. I'm usually using a 3/16oz slip sinker ... regardless of whether I'm working it 1-10ft deep or 1-20ft deep. I'm using a blacklight - watching my line - working it slow.

When crankin - I'm parallel fishing the banks ... usually with a red Hot Lips, but occasionally with a Baby Bass Wiggle Wart or a Fire Tiger Model A Bomber. I'm working the 10-15ft depth range.

A Watermelon Bitsy Flip on glowing flourescent line cant be beat. A blue fleck power worm is a very close second. Those two baits just seem to call the big ones out to play.

Depends on depth mostly to me but 3/16 or 1/4 most of the time. If per chance I get on fish shallower I may go for an 1/8.

Black & Blue Jigs, big worms up to 10" in Red or Black Shad, Big Black or White Single Colorado Blade 1/4 to 1/2 oz spinnerbait...If the moon is out I will even throw a topwater bait, either a Buzzbait, or a walking the dog type of bait. Weights for worm will be from 1/8th oz to 5/16ths.

Just hang onto that pole when a big ole bucket mouth grabs that spinner bait at night...Will feel like a big Semi done tried to jerk the rod out of your hand..... Man do I love to fish at night......
