Summer Lures
#1
Chatterbait
Color: Black/Blue · Size: 3/8 oz
Cast toward riprap and submerged wood, retrieve with steady cadence and sharp rod twitches to trigger reaction strikes.
Vibration cuts through stained water in overcast conditions and works fast-moving water created by 11 mph wind.
#2
Rage Craw
Color: Watermelon Red · Size: 4.5 inch
Pitch into weed edges and wood cover, drag along the bottom with pauses to let it settle naturally.
Craw profile matches natural food in stained water, and Texas rig excels in heavy cover on mid-depth structure.
#3
Senko
Color: Green Pumpkin · Size: 5 inch
Cast near vegetation and structure, allow the lure to fall on semi-slack line with minimal rod movement to trigger bite from suspended bass in the cloudy conditions.
Overcast skies and steady pressure conditions favor natural-looking baits; wacky rig offers the slowest, most enticing fall that works in 73°F water where bass are less aggressive.
#4
Football Jig
Color: Black/Blue Craw · Size: 3/8 oz
Bounce along riprap and hard-bottom structure with short hops, pausing frequently on the lift.
Football shape is ideal for rocks and irregularity; black/blue stands out in stained water during overcast afternoon.
#5
Rapala Original Floater
Color: Perch · Size: 3.5 inch
Twitch-twitch-pause retrieve around shallow cover and drop-offs; work near vegetation edges where bass seek shade and prey on disoriented baitfish.
Steady pressure with recent rainfall and overcast conditions favor reactive baits that mimic injured baitfish; floaters excel in shallow zones where summer bass congregate for shade.
