Thanks lads.
I dont fish freshwater that much so im.not well versed with bass or anything fresh. But bass was on my list to tick off and its good to get it off my back.

Lures wise they came on spinner baits. Plastics and hardbody minnows. Cicadas and surface walkers for topwater.

I would highly recommend you take up the offer and go chase them. They hit hard for a small fish. And surface strikes/explosions are awsome.
I only seen the small versions. So i can only imagine what the big guys and cod does...

Recent take from a 48, ohh so close to the fiddy but still a good surface take.
Still working on the full vid for youtube (not much time around christmas new years to edit unfortuately)

Embed link isn't working, not sure if it's facebook but for now it's just linking (apologies to those who don't have it)

Great video Man how loud are the cicadas and how fast do they head to the snags after hitting the lure.
