Largemouth Bass Versus My Three Favorite Top Water Lures

First, a small amount of facts about the largemouth bass you are seeking to catch.  This fish actually has six senses: Along with the normal, hearing, sight, smell, taste, and touch they also have the lateral line, which is a series of sensitive nerve endings that extends from just behind the gill to the tail on each side of the fish.

While using these three favorite surface lures we should be appealing to their hearing, sight and lateral line. If you choose to spray a scent of some kind on your lure, you can add smell and maybe taste as well.

The "Jitterbug" is a surface lure that produces lots of sound as it is retrieved creating a gurgling sound with its front blade as it wobbles along the surface.  Present this lure around structure and be prepared for thrilling attack from below.

There two particular memories that I have will fishing with this lure.  The first was when I just had a feeling there was a largemouth bass hanging around a downed tree in the water.  I was correct, but threw this lure to the same spot seven times before convincing him to strike.
My second memory was at Kentucky Lake, while casting I went over a log- oops.  While trying to retrieve the lure which became caught on the log a bass attempted three times at the lure.

The "Bass Oreno" in the red/white colors is another very effective lure with the cupped out front end that also produces sound. This lure can be retrieved in a straight-line method or a side-to-side slight jerk pattern.

The last of my favorites is the "A.C. Shiner Minnow" which is a minnow style lure with a swimming type surface action.  This lure when retrieved rapidly will dart to the side like a wounded minnow.  The slow retrieve produces a side-to-side swim effect.  I like the medium size in silver pattern.

I live in a northern state which has developed some lakes with very large populations of largemouth bass. So that others can have the joy and thrill of catching bass as I have, further information is available at Bass Fishing Tactics
