From CT an can't help,But since you mentioned your looking to catch a lunker bass,True fishing story :mj07: I fished water co. propriety for 2 years awhile back,On the back end of the lake was where my lunker hung out,The water was about 6 feet deep and lead to a stream There was an old stump sticking out on the edge of land,For 2 years I tryed spinners,poppers,every rubber they made ,powerbait,kellys,shinners ,real worms,Even salt water eels,trout equipment,meal worms,Fucer jus laughed at me,One item this place did have was a shit load of bullfrogs an never dawned on me to try what the lake feed this fucer till while on shore an my son was getting bored he caught a big poppa bullfrog,Well needless to say the 1st attempt failed if you ever hook a frog they will in flat like a balloon an blow around with the wind upside down motionless :shrug: So I sent the rugrat off for more kermit and this time used a double bass hook adhered by elastic band,Gently tossed him towards the stump an he proceeded to do his last breast stoke,It was one of the greatest catches of my life,hair standing up on my arms heart fibulating :com: Land the lunker moe!! Life at its best,gl2u.
Sorry Moe, can't help ya. I'm from the midwest (Illinois) and fish in northwest Ontario. In fact I'm heading out (hopefully before noon today) for two more weeks 
95% of my fishing is for walleye. Don't do any bass fishing (Yet!) We do catch some nice smallmouth bass (I'm assuming that's what you have on your lakes) while fishing for the eyes. Leeches are deadly! If the lake hosted a tourney it must be a good one. Get a map of the lake and talk to the locals at the bait shops. GL on your venture. Have a great time and let me know how you did when you return :mj06:
Nice story DBLMUTZ!! Here's to frogs :toast:
