Freshwater beginning bass fishing lures
Posted by the author on November 2nd, 2010
The easiest thing is to go to the sporting goods store and ask them what the top 3 lures are for bass or whatever else you are fishing for and then get them.
There are at least 3 lures I always have with me. A red and white daredevle, a countdown rapala and a skirted spinner. Of course I also have a few different colors and sizes of jigs and tails.
No natural feathered or fuzzy things tho. I’ve found the soft plastic baits to be very good and fish have liked them for a long time. Yes, these are the bare basics but I can catch almost any type of fish on them.
You don’t need to get fancy to catch fish. Always remember that a lot of lures are created to catch fishermen, not fish.
Don’t let other people make it complicated for you. There are good bass lures that work almost all the time and that’s all you need. Keep it simple for beginning bass fishing lures.
Nothing will stimulate your senses more to the predatory power of a largemouth bass, than a surface presentation using a lure. Although the use of lures would have to be the most exciting way to catch fresh water predator fish, fresh water lures are still the most misunderstood lures used today largely due to the endless range found in tackle shops. Of course you couldn’t try them all unless of course you need to lighten the load on your wallet.
The first fresh water lures for big bass that I suggest everyone should have is the Original Snake Lure by natural Motion Lures. The natural snake action on the water drive big mouth bass crazy, but the trick is to think like a snake and try to mimic the action a snake might make. Try and can cast on the edge of the shore or on a log and slowly drag the lure over the intended strike area while keeping a slow and consistent action; you need to become ‘one’ with the snake.
