My daughter caught a couple nice ones in the fall while fishing for bluegills right after we moved into the property so we knew they were in there. I caught all of the bass today on a 2" Rapala floater that is probably 30 years old. The last big one on broke it off! A day like today was well worth losing my old favorite lure. The previous owner of our property did not fish or manage the fish for 10+ years, but the owner who lived there before him was there from the early 70's to 2000 and was an avid fisherman. We saw lots of smaller LMB today, too, so I don't think I'm going to do anything to upset what is established! The BG fishing is excellent too.
