Shad colors in the silver or gold chrome are good choice for almost any lake. “I will stick with basic colors that will allow me to fish most any situation I encounter.” “Anglers don’t need a ton of colors in the Rat-L-Trap ,” advises Daniels. Common sizes for Daniels are a or ½-ounce or ¾ ounce but sometimes he will drop down to a ¼ ounce Tiny Trap depending on the water clarity and baitfish size. He says the lure is versatile and can be fished using several different methods. One lure Daniels always has tied on for summer bass catching is the original Rat-L-Trap, which is the original lipless crankbait. In clear water Daniels usually will cast a solid white stickbait or shad colored popper. Shad or perch colors are common choices for anglers on most lakes. Lure color is generally not critical in topwater baits. “A topwater stick bait, popper or buzzbait is a good choice for action early in the day,” reports Daniels. Fish your way to the back while looking for any baitfish activity. On large reservoirs, small, quiet shallow pockets can hold bass early. The braid transfers hook-setting energy to the lure, especially on long casts. A quality casting reel spooled with Seaguar braided line is the choice for Daniels. Look for gulls or other birds that may be diving to the water to feed on the shad.Ī medium-heavy rod with a fast-action tip is prime gar for topwater lures. Bass will push shad and other baitfish up on the point to make them easier to ambush. Long flat points are other areas for topwater action. Main lake points near deep water are areas to target first. Large, soft-plastic worms are a top choice for Mark Daniels Jr.
