Finesse baits and topwater lures worked well at Hart Park for bass

7-5-2024
Chad Burton and Chris Borden

Finesse baits and topwater lures worked well at Hart Park for bass anglers. Some real hogs have been taking a variety of weedless finesse baits, jigs, and frogs. The best time to get in on the action is after the sun goes down. Bluegill ate redworms, waxworms, and mealworms, and catfish anglers landed whisker-fish while using Carolina rigged chicken liver, dip bait, and cut anchovies.
