Cool! Congrats on your first bass! Believe me they can get addicting very fast!! For Deer Creek and Jordanelle you'll need to get a few staples for next time. I read your other post, so I know you've already recognized that topwater baits like poppers, etc. can be good very early or very late. Once they go down to the bottom, however, a great way to get them is with senkos or other brands of soft plastic stickbaits like that. For Deer Creek, white or smoke sparkle are great colors, followed by green. Jordanelle the chartreuse does very well, as well as shades of white. You can wacky rig them, drop shot, or many other ways. When it comes to catching lots of them but little ones, a worm under a bobber is hard to beat though.
