Waking Up Bass

Did you ever encounter a day on the water and you felt like it was time to "wake up" the bass? 

Now I don't mean those days when it seems the bass need an alarm clock to get them going but situations where the bass are holding in submerged cover (grass, brush, etc.) and show signs of surface activity!

Though there are a number of different topwaters that may work, retrieving a wake bait with its wide wobbling motion and clicking of internal and external hardware is often the key to drawing bass up from their submerged haunts to explode on the bait...

Want to learn more about drawing bass to the surface to slam a wake bait? 

Take a moment to watch this short tutorial video on fishing wake baits over shallow, submerged cover:

In the previous video they demonstrate wake baiting using a fat-body crankbait style of lure. 

In addition, there are several different body styles available to bass anglers today including one of oldest, the Arbogast Jitterbug, shad shaped wake baits like the 6th Sense Speed Wake and rat-shaped versions like the Bull Shad Bull Rat!
