Was out on my local creek today targeting smallmouth, I was getting a good bit of chases/ follows from some good sized fish, but no takes. What am I doing wrong? Had senkos, flukes, and craws on weightless Texas rig

Looking for good access to the creeks in and around the warminster/ warrington area. Targeting bass (newbie) now that trout season is over. Any tips on some good spots would be greatly appreciated!
Now that it's getting to warm for trout in my area I'm planning on switching up to targeting large&small mouth bass, mostly in local streams, possibly in some lakes as well. I have a shimano 7' medium rod and a c3000 reel on the way, figured 10-15lb braid and a fluoro leader should do the trick, but I'm not very familiar with rigs/baits/lures for bass. Any recommendations on that area a well as any gear that would be handy to carry are greatly appreciated.
Side note I also plan to use this rod/ reel setup to fish for fluke in the surf/ back bays of the jersey shore if I get the chance, so any input on that would be cool too!
Up til about two weeks ago I was having the best luck fishing mouse tails off the bottom of my local creek, just a split shot at various lengths above the hook.
Now lately they've slowed up big time on them, I've tossed around a couple spinners and some trout magnets with no luck.
Figured I'd see if anyone has any go to baits/lures rigs for when the bite slows down
Having trouble bleeding my catch, usually catch/ release but I wanted to keep a few this year, every time I attempt to bleed a catch I get almost nothing out, going under full plate and cutting through glass(all the way in pretty sure) and putting back in the water, just don't easy to ruin a good fish
This guy is missing left eye, easy to I.D. but I knew it was him as soon as he was close to the bank. Plus another solid rainbow that i probably should've kept for dinner. Spotted a palomino also who wanted nothing to do with the bait I had 😅 (cant figure out how to post video with the pictures) any tips for those stubborn bastards would be cool. Tight lines 🎣
Lost count yesterday they were hitting so good, local creek in s/e PA. Had a blast and wanted to share, tight lines ✌️
Hoping that Last run wasn't it for the year, especially with the new music on the way
