Usually when I go fishing, I hit the water about 6 or earlier if I can. Until about 9, I always have some decent luck in a few coves/boathouses/creeks/points that I know that are all around 5-9' deep. As soon as it starts to heat up, I just can't buy a bite. I'll throw topwater, cranks, senkos, t-rig trick worms, spinners...they just won't hit anything. Common sense tells me to move to deeper waters, but I'm just not very experienced fishing deep. What sort of places should I be looking out for? Right now I'm working with some fairly old electronics that make it difficult sometimes to locate any structure, but I'm trying to get some cash to upgrade. What sort of lures do you use? Obviously deep running cranks but what else is good? Any help I could get would be great, Thanks

Hey everyone! My name is Nick, I am from Alabama and I've been fishing on and off with my grandpa and dad since I could cast a reel. The thing is, neither of them is very good at fishing. They love it, as do I, but they just never catch much. They are happy just sitting out on the river being away from work even if they aren't catching much. I'm different, I love to catch bass. Until recently, I had been happy with mediocre fishing but lately I've been doing a LOT of reading and trying to improve. I can't even begin to explain how much this site has helped me so far. Thank you guys, Nick
