subject: Best Bait For Bass Fishing [print this page] You can have all the best and most expensive fishing equipment around. You will spend tens of thousands on the best bass boat. And yet still there is the possibility of not catching a fish. All the expensive equipment will not do much if you are using the wrong bait. This will detail the best bait for bass fishing and why it is considered the best.
Grubs
The grub lure is great and inexpensive bait that will attract the bass. This bait was very widely used in the nineteen fifties and sixties. It has lost popularity in the more recent decades. This is one of the reasons why it is such an effective bait to use.
Most fishermen are using other types of lures so the fish become accustomed to these types of lure. The grub is not played out on the lakes where other lures and baits are being used. This will help you to get more bass than the other anglers who are using the same bait types as the others are using.
You can use grubs in any areas of the lake. This makes it very effective and versatile bait for bass fishing. It can also be used in warm or cold waters which increases its versatility. You can also purchase many sizes and styles of grubs and they can be used with other types of jigs to maximize their success.
You should always make sure that your grub is soft. If the grub gets hard then you need to get rid of it as it will not be as effective. The softer and more pliable it is, the more it will attract the bass that you are seeking.
Frogs
Another of the versatile and overlooked bait is the frog. The frog lure is great bait for getting fish in warmer waters. The best time of the year to use frogs is from May and throughout the summer months. This is because the frogs are a natural food source during these months.
Frogs are great because the frogs are a natural prey. It only makes sense to use bait that the bass will naturally go for. You can use them on lily pads to entice the bass into taking it. The bass will see the shadow on the lily pad and its natural aggression will make it want to strike at the frog shadow.
It is always best to use the fish's natural instinct. You will get more strikes when you are using bait that is geared towards getting to the natural behaviors instead of tricking the fish with flashy lures. The nature of using frog bait will allow you just that.
