Techniques That Land the Big Ones

We'll be using a mix of techniques to entice those bass. Depending on the conditions, we might start with some topwater action, working lures across the surface to trigger explosive strikes. As the sun climbs higher, we'll switch to deeper presentations, maybe dropping soft plastics along submerged timber or slow-rolling spinnerbaits near drop-offs. For stripers, we might troll with live bait or artificials, covering more water to find the schools. Captain John's always got a few tricks up his sleeve, so be ready to learn some new skills that'll serve you well on future trips.

Species You'll Want to Hook

Largemouth Bass: These are the stars of Lake Buchanan. Known for their aggressive strikes and acrobatic fights, largemouth can push 10 pounds in these waters. They love to ambush prey from cover, so we'll target submerged vegetation, fallen trees, and rocky points. Spring and fall are prime times, but Captain John can put you on big ones year-round.

Striped Bass: The lake's stripers are a whole different ballgame. These powerful fish can top 20 pounds and will test your arms and your gear. They're often found in deeper water, following schools of shad. We might use live bait or big artificial lures to tempt these hard-fighters. The satisfaction of landing a big striper is something you won't forget.

White Bass: Don't underestimate these smaller cousins of the striper. What they lack in size, they make up for in numbers and fight. When we hit a school of whites, the action can be non-stop. They're great eating too, so if you're looking to take some fish home for dinner, these are a top choice. Spring sees huge spawning runs up the river, but we can find them year-round in the main lake.

Hybrid Striped Bass: A cross between white bass and stripers, these fish combine the best of both worlds. They grow bigger than whites but are more numerous than pure stripers. Expect hard strikes and determined fights from these popular game fish. They often school up, so when we find them, be ready for multiple hookups.
