Largemouth BassTechniqueTexas Rigs (Worming)SeasonFallStructureHumpsI caught a few bass on green pumpkin Senkos, but when I switched to Purple, the bass really started to hit them. Some days, the color makes the difference. The bass were on drop-offs and also submerged weeds in 7 to 8 feet of water.

I caught bass on wacky rigs right off the outside edge of the weedline. My buddy John caught and released this 42 inch musky while we were fishing a drop off.

Post front conditions and the fishing was slow. We worked the weed edge until we got bites and slowed down. Keep an eye on your contour maps for slight changes such and inside/outside turns with healthy, green vegetation as the fish seem to be tight to cover. We got largemouth in areas where we felt the bluegill nibbling on the ned jigs. Slow down if you feel those bites because bass are right behind them. Pairing a chartreuse jig head with a green pumpkin MG Lures floating wormed seems to work best.

Tried fishing from the pier but the seemed to shallow and warm. Walked along the coasr towards the boat launch and casted along the lily pads right off the boat launch. There were lots of too water strikes visible from the launch and I landed a good one.

I used a drop shot on the outside edge of the weedline in 10 to 12 feet of water. The big bass are definitely deep right now.

The Z-Man chatterbait is hot on this lake! My approach was targeting deep outside weedlines (10-15 fow) and points, along with a slow, bottom-bumping retrieve.

Wacky style with the new 5" Fat Senko was fire today. Compared to the original Senko, the increased diameter of the Fat Senko results in a slightly faster fall rate, which can be advantageous in certain situations. Also, the thicker profile of the Fat Senko makes it more visible to fish, potentially attracting more attention, especially in stained water. My key areas was outside weedlines.
