Summer big baits
by Mike Gerry
As we slowly move on with summer, it can be a time of year where size matters. At no time during the fishing year is the size of your bait more important than now. The difference is that most people go with small baits in the summer; however, if you’re wanting to catch big quality bass, fish with big baits like 7-inch swim baits, 3/4 oz. jigs with large trailers that give the jig a bulky look, 3/4 to 1 oz. spinner baits with large willow leaf blades. Defy the norm and work with size to achieve size in your catch.
