This article will explain the various types of artificial lures that bass fishermen use. Swimbaits. Flat-sided crankbaits. Rubberworms. Softplastics. 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 the best results, try mimicking prey animals' movements as closely and accurately as possible.
Soft plastics
The age of soft plastics has seen a mixture of sand, glitter and colored plastics used as baits to catch bass. These lures have hundreds of color options and can mimic real life. They can be used to catch fish by being rigged on hooks, jigheads or similar devices. They should not be used solely, however. You should consider the type of fish that you are targeting as well as the color of the soft plastics you use.
Most soft plastic lures float easily on water's surface, and some bob a bit. They appear more real to bass by having a bobbling action. Depending on the soft plastic used, it may be difficult to predict whether a bass will take a lure with a Bobbling Action. Before rigging, remove the weight from any weighted or weighted sinker.
Swimbaits
There are many different types of artificial bass swimbaits, each with its own characteristics. Some swimbaits have smaller hooks and others have a larger hook. A swimbait’s action is dependent on many factors, such as weight, rigging, hook size and length. The best line-thru swimmerbaits for fishing for bass are those that can be used in clear water.
Swimbaits mimic baitfish and work best in water where bass feeds on shad. Semi-translucent swimbaits are easily visible in clear water. Add scale effects to your water with shiny paint or glitter. There are many colors that work, from green pumpkin to black or white. Chartreuse goes well with a Chatterbait's skirt. However, you should match the presentation of your swimbait with the fish species you're trying to capture.
Your swimbait's size will depend on three factors: the size and type of fish being targeted, how big the fishery is and how much forage you have. Bass can be picky so you might need to reduce your size. A smaller swimbait is an option if the bite is not strong. And don't forget to consider the profile. A spinning rod is a better choice for smaller swimbaits.
Flat-sided crankbaits
Flat-sided crankbaits for bass are perfect for fishing in early spring and early fall when baitfish are very active. Flat-sided lures act and look more like real bait than the round-bodied crankbaits. This is especially true when fishing in shallower and colder waters. Flat-sided crankbaits mimic the flat-sided movements that minnows and forage fish make, so choosing the right size and color will appear 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. Likewise, they swim faster in stained water, which makes flat-sided crankbaits ideal for stained water. Be aware, however, that not all flat-sided crankbaits will be the same. Some lures may sink more than others, and others may swim faster.
Rubber worms
The rig that you use to lure bass fish with rubber worms is critical. There are many options for rubber worm rigs depending on the fishing conditions. There are many options for rubber worm rigs, including the Carolina Rig (Texas Rig), Wacky Rig (Wacky Rig), and the Ned rig. While they may not be the most appealing bass fishing lures, they are effective for attracting bass and other species.
Zoom Magnum II Worms can be used to hook larger hooks. It comes in a 9-inch length and is available in green pumpkin. It has been popular with bass anglers for many years. Its natural water color makes it easier for bass anglers to hook one. To produce a pause, and splash, you can also use it with a hook sinker.

Statistics
- To substantiate this theory, Knight attempted a systematic inquiry by considering the timing of 200 'record' catches, more than 90 percent were made during a new moon (when no moon is visible). (myfwc.com)
- You likely have a fish hooked if the bobber moves erratically for over 5 seconds. (tailoredtackle.com)
- For most freshwater species you are most likely to target when first starting out, a reel size of 20 to 30 should be more than enough! (strikeandcatch.com)
- Coarse fishing is 100% catch and release these days. (linesonthewater.anglingtrust.net)
