Let me start by saying I moved here from alaska last summer. So bass fishing is new to me.I have been on roosevelt and had good luck but all were really small. So I have read and seen pics of the bass at banks 2 to 5 lbs ect. so me and the boy 6 went last wed. no luck then took the family fri sat and sun no luck one little wally. I asked a few guys what to use what colors were to go ect. was told grubs worms weedless hook up and texas hook ups dark colors there shallow ect. so i gave it one heck of a try to no success. so what makes banks so differnt then roosevelt for catching them. the other thing is i dont have a electric motor or a trolling motor do they really make that much differance.i do have a fish finder but no fish catcher (joke) any info would be great remember im new at bass fishing so any info would help thanks in advance
