Metabolism responds to temperature & the hottest summer days mean peak metabolism, but this doesn't mean bass give chase. They slow down to conserve calories & seek easy meals by sensory organs manic with alertness as that metabolism powers them. So I throw weightless 7 1/2-inch plastic worms that sink slower than Senkos. That's a slow, easy offering, just takes a little patience, most hits on descent. Rather than by barrel swivel, I tie uni-to-uni splice between 15-pound test Power Pro braid and 15-pound test fluorocarbon. You can also follow my blog and go back into the archives and click on the largemouth label for some info. Just google my full name with the middle name included, Edward.
