I live in Boulder Colorado. Here there's about a 2 mile square area where there's 20 lakes, so I dont have to worry about this that much, but I have a great idea for you. When someone is crowding you on a shorline, when you want to have a nice chill day of fishing in peace and quiet, jusy follow this 10 step program... 1. reach into your backpack 2. Pull out a pair of womans stockings 3. Pull said stocking over your head and face, kinda like a bank robber would do it 4. reach back into your backpack 5. Grab a plastic knife that look like a real knife, but cant hurt anybody 6. Look in the general direction of the moron who's fishing next to you 7. Holding the knife in the air, Slowly start chuckling, while looking at the moron next to you 8. Build the chucking into full blown maniacal laughter 9. While laughing like a hyena slowly start walking towards the evil fisherman crowding you and your woman 10. Watch the selfish, cracker headed, toothless inbred, who's crowding you, move down the lake about 500 yards Todd

Weedless frog, will catch a hog.

Wow! 30 feet? Very nice and very interesting. The fact that a bass would take the energy to make a 30 foot vertical strike says a hell of a lot for that particular lure. Especially if it was a big bass..

Wow guys great stuff. Thanks. Hey dink, please explain what you mean by search bait, and using soft plastic to clean up. I assume you throw the buzzbait out to a point a few times to get the bass riled up, then just throw a nice worm where you were casting the buzzer and work it from there? If so, have you noticed you get bigger bass that way? I seem to keep getting little bass on my plastic worms. 4 pounds seems huge for Boulder Colorado, and Ive only caught 1 in the short time I've been fishing here, so if I can use the "Search and clean up" method to somehow, god for bid, catch a 5 pounder, I'd love to try it.

Thanks. If anyone knows anything else that would be great.

Question #1 How far under water is to far, for a LARGEMOUTH bass to be caught on a buzzbait? I fish in lakes in Boulder Colorado, that I can't imagine get much deeper that maybe 15-20 feet( I could be wrong) Can a bass be in 20 feet of water and still be attracted to the sound/vibration/look of a buzzbait? Question #2 If 20 feet is too deep, how close to the surface does a hungry LARGEMOUTH bass have to be to be attracted to a buzzbait? Question #3 - What are a largemouths tendancies in terms of when it will go to deeper water? Is it a weather thing?(sunny days/cold fronts/windy days) or is it a time of day thing? (they go to deeper water during the daytime?) Thanks so much for your help fellas!

Really? Topwater? You've had good experiences that way? I don't see a lot of people saying lures like floating rapalas that go deep when you reel 'em in are any good. I always thought they were the perfect lure for sunny days. A nice, shiny silver one I would think attract lots of bass. Maybe I'm wrong which is probably why I created this post in the fist place. Anyone else with opinions?

Love dawn and dusk, but if you had to choose 2 lures, to fish for largemouth bass, on a hot sunny afternoon, what 2 lures would you chose, and why? Thanks guys.

hEY GUYS, i JUST STARTED LARGEMOUTH BASS FISHING AGAIN HERE IN bOULDER cOLORADO. wE HAVE THIS AMAZING FISHING SPOT HERE, THAT IS ABOUT 2 SQUARE MILES, AND HAS 20, YES, 20 LAKES. IVE BEEN CATCHING 2-3.5 POUNDERS IN THERE REGULARLY AND IVE SEEN A 5.5 POUNDER COME OUT OF THERE AS WELL. (oops just realized i was typing in caps, sorry) Anyway, I've caught bass on buzzbaits, floating rapalas, weedless frogs, and Carolina rigged plastic worms, all at different times of day, but i feel like I could be catching more fish. When fishing on a bright sunny hot day, should I be fishing in deeper water with lures that go a little deeper? Or should I be fishing closer to shore in the shade, with a buzzbait? I've heard the biggest bass are caught at noon or in bright sunlight, contrary to popular opinion. What about at dusk? At say, 7:00-9:00 on a hot summer night. Buzzbaits? If I'm fishing a lake that only gets to be about 12 feet deep, when are largemouth bass more likely to be out in deeper water? I've heard they move deeper as the sun gets brighter, but I've also heard they move close to shore in the shade and weeds. I want to make sure I'm using the correct lures, at the correct times of day, in the correct locations from shore(no boats on the lakes i fish). Thanks for your help guys!
