Big Bass

[#1bassmaster]

Use a plastic worm colored purple with white streaks with 3 hookes.Make sure you have tied a good knot and have a strong line because i  gaurantee to get a good size bass or bluegill on one of the first casts as long as you reel it in slowly butt not to slow.today i used it and i got 10 bass in the first 13 casts!

Welcome to Ultimate Bass #1Bassmaster!  My vote goes to the brown combo.  It is one color I always have tied on in the fall whether it be a worm, jig or crankbait.

 Eh, is this a trick question? I would never use less than 4 hooks in my purple worms.

I agree pawpaw..

It is a trick question because it all depends on what weight class your going for.
For instance, if your hunting for a 6lb hog, you need to use 6 hooks. Duh?
When I was a youngster, I used 1 hook. I have now graduated to 3-5 hooks. I'm kinda of a pessimist for not making 6 hooks my normal choice figuring that the majority of my fish will be 3-5 lbs.

welcome #1bassmaster.
I think some of the guys are having a little fun with  a newb to the forum.
purple or brown?   three hooks?
how about dark with one hook?
throw it in front of a bass with some practiced skill and he will likely bite it.
If you are catching bream on a regular basis your pan fishing.

Will, there are tons of info here, it keeps the newbie to the pro learning everyday.  Those 3 hook worms, i haven't seen them in a long time, might be the ticket that fish haven't seen.  it just might be the key. 

I stick with a Texas rigged worm with a Extra Wide Gap (EWG) hook.

I've had luck on big 10" worms on EWG hooks and 5-6" worms on the shaky head. The bass seem to like stuff BIG and SLOW when the temps start to drop. Good fishing there bassmaster.

Yup.
They're female alright.

You have to be careful.  In my state (Indiana,) The D.N.R. only allows three hooks per single line.  I'm not sure exactly what it is, but there is also a limit on distance between hooks on a trot line.  That's neither here nor there, my point being that you must check your local state regulation to see if there is a limit as to how many hooks you may have in one lure.  I would hate to see anyone be disqualified for a state record over a technicality such as number of hooks used.

Can't pick either selection........ bass school in the fall and chase shad up in creeks.. they circle the wagon so to speak.......

A shallow running crank or even better a popper or Zara spook really packs a punch in the fall...........

I like whatever the bass like and black grape or purple as some like to call it is the color of choice around here for me.  Keep listening to them bass - and you will be sitting in one of them pro boats one day
