Are there any methods for targeting BIG bass, or is it just hit or miss with the regular techniques? I troll with umbrellas, stretches and do alot of chunking. I usually focus on Flynns Knoll and in the Reach and do alright on the 10-20lbers but I was wondering if there is another method or location that would up my chances for a 30+lber.
Does anyone have any other methods for bass that they want to share?

It wont be long now!!

Try Live Lining bunker, hearing, or whatever else is around for bait. Big Bait gets big fish.

The thing with big bait is t be patient. You may get soemthumps from smaller fish that can't swallow the big bait but you will know when the big one hits.

Keep your reel in free spool and thumb the bait out. If your gear is sensitive enough you will fell the live bait getting nervous.

The first run will be him grabbing the bait and crushing the gill plates, then once away form the others he turns it around and swallows it head first. Tha is when you lock it up and set the hook.

Takes a little getting use to it but it works.

Good luck
