Bass in heavily pressured waters have seen it all. Few lures produce new action that largemouths haven't seen before.

Try using a floating crankbait as a topwater bait. The manufacturer didn't design it to be used this way but the tactic can work wonders.

Cast the bait to likely looking cover and let it rest for a few seconds. Start tugging on the line, slowly bobbing it up and down as you slowly reel it in. Largemouths drawn to the topwater action tend to slam this bait. You can almost guarantee they've never seen anything like it and you can take bass that have been caught on other tactics.
