Buzz baits and live baits.
Buzzbaits are kinds of wire baits that can serve as topwater lures with tails and create splashes as you move them along the surface of the water. But to make them even more effective for fishing during the night, you should also accompany these with live baits such as small frogs or fish like minnows that can create splashes in the water. 
Large worms.
You can also find large worms being sold on many bait shops and we prefer the large because we always want to catch bass which normally gets hungry and more active during the night. You can also include a jig or a buzz bait to make the worm bait more tempting to bass so they tend to attack the bait. 
Catching fish in different bodies of water requires skills, patience and of course your knowledge on which fishing lures and bait should be used. So with this info, hopefully, the next time you go saltwater fishing or fishing in lakes or rivers or even at night, you know which bait and lures to bring. Even though you are a newbie in fishing, it pays to know the kind of food your desired fish want to eat.
