In this article, you will learn about various types of artificial lures for bass. You will learn about Swimbaits, Flat-sided crankbaits, Rubber worms, and Soft plastics. Because they imitate the movements of prey animal animals, these artificial lures are ideal for catching bass. To make use of these artificial lures, you must first learn how to properly work them. For best results, you should mimic prey animal's movements as closely as possible.
Soft plastics
As the age of soft plastics is over, baits for bass are made from a combination sand/glimmer and colored plastics. These lures are molded to mimic life and are available in hundreds of colors and configurations. These lures can be attached to hooks or other jigheads in order to make it easier to fish with them. But, they shouldn't be used only. A good choice of soft plastics depends on the type of fish you're targeting and what color you're fishing in.
Most soft-plastic lures glide easily on water's surface. Others bob a little. They appear more real to bass by having a bobbling action. Depending on which soft plastic you are using, it can be hard for bass to decide whether they will bite a lure that has a bobbling action. Use a weighted lure if you want to rig the bait.
Swimbaits
There are many styles and characteristics to artificial swimbaits that bass fishermen can choose from. Some swimbaits can be smaller and have no hooks. Others are larger and more rigid with a hooked. A swimbait's action depends on several factors, including weight, rigging, and hook size. The best line-thru swimmerbaits for fishing for bass are those that can be used in clear water.
Swimbaits are designed to look like baitfish and are best in areas where bass feed on the shad. Semi-translucent swimmerbaits can be seen easily in clear water. Shiny paint and glitter can create scale effects. There are many colors that work, from green pumpkin to black or white. Chartreuse is the perfect color for a Chatterbait's skirt. But whatever type of swimbait you choose, make sure to match your presentation with the species of fish you're targeting.
Three factors affect the size of your swimbait: the size of the fishery, the amount of forage and the type fish you are targeting. You may need to reduce the size of your swimbait if you have bass that are picky. You can also try smaller swimbaits if you are having trouble getting bass to bite. Remember to take into account the profile. Try fishing smaller swimbaits using a spinning rod.
Flat-sided crankbaits
Flat-sided crankbaits can be used to catch bass in spring and autumn, when baitfish is very active. Unlike round-bodied crankbaits, these flat-sided lures look and act more like real bait, especially when fishing in shallow water or cold water. Crankbaits with flat sides mimic the flat-sided movements of forage fish and minnows, so the right size and color will look more natural.
Flat-sided crankbaits are great for fishing in stained water, as bass are very sensitive to vibrations. Bass can sense vibrations in the lateral lines of their prey. They also swim faster in stained waters, making flat-sided crankbaits perfect for stained water. But, not all flatsided crankbaits can be used equally. Some lures sink deeper than others while others swim faster.
Rubber worms
While rubber worms can work well as artificial lures to bass, your choice of rig is key to their success. There are many variations of a rubber worm-rig depending on the fishing conditions. Some of the most popular are the Carolina Rig, Texas Rig, Wacky Rig, and Ned rig. They are effective in attracting bass and other species, even though they might not be the most attractive lures for bass fishing.
Zoom Magnum II Worms are great for hooking larger hooks. It is available in green pumpkin and measures 9 inches. It has been on the market for years and is popular with bass anglers. Its natural colour makes it easy to hook a bass. It can be combined with aworm sinker to produce both a splash and a pause.
