Summer Lures
#1
Berkley PowerBait Hollow Body Frog
Color: Black · Size: 2.5 inch
Cast directly onto floating mats and work with short, deliberate hops and pauses. Let it sit 2–3 seconds between twitches to trigger strikes from bass holding underneath the mat edges.
Floating mats in clear summer water with high pressure demand a weedless topwater that doesn't spook fish; hollow body frogs are the standard for mat fishing and evening activity when bass move shallow.
#2
Zoom Brush Hog
Color: Watermelon Red · Size: 4.75 inch
Punch through dense submerged vegetation with a heavy 1 oz bullet sinker; drop vertically and work with short lifts and drags to dislodge bass from thick cover. High pressure demands finesse—use a slower cadence than normal.
Submerged vegetation in clear water with high fishing pressure requires a weedless presentation that penetrates cover; punch rigging a creature bait is the proven technique for pressured pond bass in dense grass.
#3
Rapala Original Floater
Color: Silver · Size: #7
Cast near lily pad edges and work with sharp 2–3 inch jerks followed by 1–2 second pauses. The suspending action triggers strikes from bass relating to pad structure in clear water; evening light favors the natural silver finish.
Lily pads in clear summer water with steady pressure and evening light call for a natural-profile jerkbait that mimics fleeing baitfish; the #7 size and silver color match pond forage and work the shallow pad zone effectively.
