Five Best Bass Lures
Bass fishing can be as complex or as simple as you want it to be. Especially for those new to the sport, lure choices can leave you feeling overwhelmed. Visit a Bass Pro or a Cabella's, and you might end up in the corner in a fetal position due to choice overload.
The truth is that you only need a handful of those lures to be off to a good start. The first and absolutely most important, in my opinion, is a crankbait. Go with natural colors for clearer water, and go with darker colors or red colors for more stained water.
Next up, you need a swim bait. Don't forget to rig it with a slip sinker aka bullet weight. I have a separate post that will go into more detail.
The number three spot goes to a spinner bait. The same color rule for crank baits applies to spinners.
Next up, have a jig and a good trailer. You can't go wrong putting a craw trailer on a jig. Again, the same color rule for cranks and spinners applies to jigs.
Last but by no means least, get yourself a Rattle-L-Trap. Sometimes bass prefer the tight action of a trap to the more eradic action of a crank.
Tight lines in 2016!
