Im 16, i live up in NY, and i use a topwater lure thats called "top knocker"...the water has to be semi-calm but it doesnt have to be glass, as the lure makes tons of noise. My first time using it, i caught 3 4+ pounders in a matter of 10 minutes. The bass will just inhale it under the water if its super-hot out, but if its in like the 70's the bass will nail it. However, when its windy out and topwater is out of the question i prefer spinner baits, plastics, crankbaits, and different kinds of jigs. The only thing with spinner baits is that up North it seems as the year goes on, and the bass stop spawning, I tend to catch more pike and pickerel.
