Welcome to BFT!
I caught most of them on a purple worm. You can see the worm in one of the pictures. The 10"-12" bass were more difficult to catch that bass of this size are typically in the spring. Any good finesse bass fishing technique would have likely worked. The key was to spot the fish before casting and then not spook them. They weren't very interested in the faster moving reaction baits (Spinnerbaits, jerk baits, etc).
There are a lot of mosquitoes around the McTucker ponds. Bingham county also had one of the highest (if not highest) rates of West Nile Virus per capita in the nation in 2006. Good place to bring bug spray.
