I like to us a really small blue gill and throw it on the bed. They will usally hit the blue gill. I've had some luck with that.

Take and alkaseltzer tablet and bore a hole through the center with a 1/16 inch drill bit, you can do this by holding the bit in your fingers. Thread the alkaseltzer tablet and thread it onto you line, tie on a worm hook to fit the bait you choose and texas rig a large plastic worm or plastic lizard on hook. Use a crimp on sinker (1/4 ounce) to pin the alkaseltzer to the hook/bait.

Pitch this rig into the bed. The bass will react to the fizzing of the alkaseltzer as she thinks the "critter" is burrowing into her bed and inhale the bait.

I just wanted to read some of the answers to get some personal help but Beekeeper, that sounds like a great idea!!! thanks for all the help!

I like Beekeeper idea and A + 1 for you sir..I'm going to try that when I get a chance soon enough!!!

a lizard bait.

Bluegills go after bass beds pretty frequently, so any good bluegill imitator will get a lot of attention. A friend of mine swears by the storm wildeye plastic swimbaits in bluegill pattern. You often get a few hits from the bass trying to knock the fish away before they'll really bite onto it.

Lizard baits work well they look like mudpuppies to bass that eat their eggs.
