Saint Louis, MO Largemouth Bass Baits
Conditions: morning
Morning largemouth bass in Saint Louis respond well to topwater and reaction baits early when light is low and fish are active near the surface. As the sun rises, transition to spinnerbaits, chatterbaits, and soft plastics to cover water and target bass moving toward structure. The picks below cover that full morning progression from topwater to subsurface power fishing to finesse.
