kms399 Posted July 27, 2009 Posted July 27, 2009 I started out my season fairly decent I was catching numbers but couldn't seem to break that 4LB mark. I went to gander and went to the musky section and I found a Rapala x walk 13. It was big and I love topwater so I picked one up and the next morning my 3rd cast a nice 3 1/2lber. 5 more casts and I pick up a 4.12 lb. I go on to catch 5 more bass all over 3lbs and a little 4 lb musky. not a bad start to a new lure. I have been using this bait for 3 weeks now and have broken the 4lb mark 5 more times and the 5lb mark this morning I am loving this bait! so I am wondering if anyone has a specific lure that has always produced good sized fish for you. here is the xwalk if any one is interested. http://www.cabelas.com/p-0044009121702a.shtml Quote
soccplayer07 Posted July 27, 2009 Posted July 27, 2009 I would guess a jig would be most peoples answer...hard to beat for this application in my opinion. Quote
BenoBreath Posted July 27, 2009 Posted July 27, 2009 I would guess a jig would be most peoples answer...hard to beat for this application in my opinion. a 3/8-1/2oz jig with a pork or plastic trailer. BB Quote

Super User Fishing Rhino Posted July 27, 2009 Super User Posted July 27, 2009 It's a jig for me. Quote
Super User RoLo Posted July 27, 2009 Super User Posted July 27, 2009 Our most productive big-bass lures seem to rotate every year. This year, jigs were soundly trounced by the Kalin Mogambo (6" smoke grub) and the 1/2oz Johnson spoon w/ Fat Albert trailer. Also high in the running was the Berkley Hollow Belly Swimbait (Tennessee shad). Roger Quote
Super User iceintheveins Posted July 27, 2009 Super User Posted July 27, 2009 Frogs, 6" lizards, and buzzbaits! Quote
Super User iceintheveins Posted July 27, 2009 Super User Posted July 27, 2009 5" and bigger senkos are good big fish baits too, though I've got some of my biggest bass on 4" senkos. Jigs with a pork trailer are great as well, as are brush hawgs and even spinnerbaits. Quote
Super User Catt Posted July 27, 2009 Super User Posted July 27, 2009 What is my favorite big bass bait? Texas Rigged Plastic Quote
bigtimfish Posted July 27, 2009 Posted July 27, 2009 I have 2. I like BPS 12" squirmin super worms, and my huddleston deluxes. Quote
EastTexasBassin Posted July 27, 2009 Posted July 27, 2009 1/2 oz jig with a flappin hog or ragetail lobster trailer This year I've been gettin some nice ones on cavitron buzzbaits and spro frogs as well. Quote
JellyMan Posted July 27, 2009 Posted July 27, 2009 This caught jig caught 10lb 2 ounces... "Super" Brush Hog in watermelon seed, watermelon gold, or watermelon red. Watermelon red 10' Rage Anaconda slow rollin weightless. :D 8-) Quote
bass wrangler569 Posted July 27, 2009 Posted July 27, 2009 largemouth: frog smallmouth: jerkbait Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted July 27, 2009 Super User Posted July 27, 2009 10" Rage Tail Anaconda 7" Senko 3/8 oz Evolution jig/ Rage Tail Baby Craw 1/2 oz GMAN jig/ GYCB Flappin' Hog, Rage Tail Lobster, or NetBaits Baby Paca Craw 8-) Quote
Super User CWB Posted July 27, 2009 Super User Posted July 27, 2009 Most of my bigger fish have come on frogs/ buzzbaits but lately RageTail Shads seem to be the ticket. Skipping Senkos and Ikas under docks and boats always seems to get a couple hawgs each year. Quote
aarogb Posted July 27, 2009 Posted July 27, 2009 For me it has got to be a Carolina rig with a 10" inch Ole Monster or Power Worm. Another pretty good big fish is 3/4 oz. Jewel jig with a Pinch-It jig trailer from Joe S. or a 3.75 Yum Craw Papi. Quote
Super User Wayne P. Posted July 27, 2009 Super User Posted July 27, 2009 Here it comes again, LOL-------All the bass over 9# I have landed have been with a weedless wacky rigged finesse worm. Quote
DMac Posted July 27, 2009 Posted July 27, 2009 Mattlures soft bluegill or 10" texas rigged worm. 8-) Quote
A.Parris Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 Lucky Craft BDS3, Buckeye Mop Jig, 1/2 oz. spinnerbait, 1/4 oz. Cavitron buzzbait. These lures have produced many 6+ pound bass for me, and multiple tournament wins. Quote
lightsout Posted July 29, 2009 Posted July 29, 2009 3/8oz secret weapon buzzbait in black/blue has accounted for over twenty citation caliber fish in the last 3 years. luckycraft sammy (95?) in american shad has landed some football shaped smallies for me. Quote
