I would assume that natural lakes here in NY are not unlike those in
Michigan, and I wouldn't hesitate to use any of those lures you mentioned,
since I've caught August bass on every one of those lure categories.

A couple of weeks ago, I asked for advice for fishing on a small natural
lake in Michigan in late August with no electronics. Here's a summary of
the responses...

Natural-looking crankbaits, Pop-r's, Plastic worms of various colors
(T-rigged and C-rigged), shallow-diving cranks, tandem spinnerbaits over
weeds, double-prop baits, black buzzbaits, black spinnerbaits, soft
jerkbaits of various colors.

Seeing as that pretty much covers my whole tacklebox :-), I thought it
couldn't hurt to ask the opposite question -- are there any particular
lures/techniques that you would, as a rule, NOT use at that time of the
year
in that area?
