Hey Guys, for a project at work I need to catch a butt load of bass in a short amount of time in a 100 acre pond/lake on the property.  The whole thing is shallow and the majority of it is thick with weeds and grass.  I use spooks and senkos the majority of my fishing but if anyone has any suggestions for me please leave the bait and technique.  I’ll share my results in a few weeks.

Live nightcrawler.. If you are doing it for a project then ditch the “sporting” aspect of it and get down to business. The way you catch bass quick is with live bait.

1/4oz buzzbait, fluke, pop-r, frog, spinnerbait, 7 inch worm….....all depends on how thick the grass is.
