Love the buzzbait NIB. Never had anything huge on one, but love the explosion when even a small bass hits. I've also done great with big 10" purple jelly worms in ponds with darker or murkier water.

Got Stripers, 9.2 is a cow for sure. I'd like to target herring runs more this year with big swim baits. When I was a kid I used to ride my bike up inside the local herring run in Weymouth, MA and pick at fish up to 5lbs for a few hours after school. I was amazed to see these big bass inside the herring run. Got plenty of weird looks too. People couldn't believe I was fishing in the herring run until I'd catch a bass right in front of them.
