Thank you for all your great advice. I fish at the Oradell Reservoir and they don't allow boat so I can only fish from the shore. They used to have a lot of weeds but they sprayed the pesticide and got rid of all the weeds and hardly any "structure" at all. Hardly any wind today and water wasn't really moving and muddy. Spinner bait caught me a few yellow perch but no bass. Donde Esta BASS????? I tried chatter bait, top water chugging bait, spinner bait with black feather, soft plastic live kickin' shad, etc. I guess I have a long way to go to entice the bucket mouth. I challenge myself by not using live worms.
