Here are some of the best baits to use on Fayette County


Worms


These are easy to use and catch lots of bass here. All you need to do is run around and find some timber standing in 3-10 feet of water and chunk a worm around it with it either Texas-rigged that's weightless or with a small bullet weight. You'll catch plenty of bass using this technique.

Frogs


Frogs are a great lure when the conditions are right on Fayette County. There's lots of areas you can throw these including along the dam, along the reeds and anywhere there's underwater vegetation like hydrilla or eel grass. There's lots of trees in certain palces and those areas are great for throwing a frog as well. If you are feeling really adventurous, try pushing your boat into the reeds and throwing way back in them. It can be challenging but a lot of fun.

Shaky Head


I usually rig these with a trick worm in watermelon or green pumpkin colors. My favorite is probably a Watermelon Candy color.

Flukes


These are some of the best lures to use as there are lots of bluegill in the lake. A fluke is a great way to mimic these and bass love them.
