Best deeper water baits

[BayouBassAssassin]

I don't have any deep diving cranks or any other lure that is obviously meant to be fished in deep water. In the pond I've been fishing I can usually catch all I want with brush hogs and worms along the bank, but lately the bite has slowed down along the bank. I figure that the fish have moved deeper because its so hot here. What are some lures that I would be able to try and catch deeper bass with?

Thanks

    Certain baits work best in certain conditions.

    First off, tell us how deep you are fishing, then tell us are there any weeds or grass present?

    We need details and lots of them to give you the best advice.

Rig your brush hogs and worms on a carolina rig. All you'll need is a barrel swivel

I think it's about 10 ft deep. Thats only a guess from diving down after a rod one time. There is a deep spot then it rises up to about a 2 feet of water and I can see weeds all over the bottom in the shallow water.

    OK that's a little better.

   

     

    I would be throwing a light Carolina rig (1/4 oz.) where the waters rises up from 10 ft. to 2 ft.

    Try an finesse worm as the bait for the Carolina rig, It will give you confidence that fish are there because it gets the most amount of bites.

A 1/2-3/4 oz. high quality, tandem willow/willow spinnerbait,

slowrolled on the bottom.

Good Luck !!

10ft is deep to you guys?  lol

Anyways give a drop shot a try, if theres weeds rig the worm with an EWG hook.

You can also weed some lizards the same as stated above. Those are normally my go to.

If you're getting bit on brush hogs & worms why change?

x2!  Just move out deeper with them.  That would probably be your best bet since you already have confidence in them.

Stick with what your doing, but try some different soft plastics

and jigs. Specifically, the Rage Tail Lobster on a Evolution

Shak-E2 jig; Rage Tail 10" Ananconda, GYCB 6 1/2" Kut Tail

and/or Gene Larew 7 1/2" Salty Ring Worm.

Hard, deep diving lures are probably out. Fishing from the bank

you will lose them all. I fish ponds from the bank a lot and this

lure class is not an option.
