bass fishing tips

In regards to the best bass lures for Largemouth, there are many to choose from and as many factors to consider when determining which one to use. This being the case the best one is going to vary from time to time based on water temps, water clarity structure and vegetation and the mood of the bass, to name a few. The key, though, is to try various lures to see what you are comfortable with and what works for you.

Popular Artificial Baits

Artificial baits are most often used when going after largemouth bass. These can range from the ever popular plastic worms to jigs, crankbaits and spinner baits, to the most recent trend of swimbaits.

So how do you chose from all these great lures?

With the variety available, crankbaits really offer flexibility in deciding on a lure depending on the fishing environment. Whether you need a deep diver to reach those deep areas during the hot months where bass go to escape the heat of the sun or one that swims just below the surface you are sure to find one to suit your needs.

One of the most recent trends in catching trophy Bigmouth is the use of Swimbaits to attract a strike from those big bass that forage on juvenile rainbow trout.

You could say some swimbaits are pretty similar to crankbaits, but they are typically larger more lifelike baits made to mimic an actual bait fish more accurately. Some are jointed to make a more realistic swimming motion when retrieved. Others will have a rubber paddle type tail that flutters to imitate the fish swimming through the water.

Results from Live Bait

When it comes to live bait, large golden shiners can prove productive for sluggish bass in the heat of summer or the cold of winter. Other productive live baits include nightcrawlers, minnows, frogs and crawfish.
