Consider change if fishing winter, spring, fall, and summer to catch bass
Whether its around docks, timber, or other structure the paddle tail swimbait paired with a jig head consistently gets bites for many anglers this time of year
Crawfish are lots of different colors at different times of the year, but in the spring, crawfish are one of the most-important forage, so you need to be throwing a crawdad-colored bait
I figured they might at least come in handy for spares
But there are a lot of good guys fishing out there, and Ive seen a lot of them catch more than 20 pounds, so I knew it was possible.
