what is the best artificle bait for bass for this time of year

Bassin_Dude · 03-24-05, 11:27 PM

there can be a million answers to that ? it mainly has to do with the water you fish(water clarity, temp, structure,etc..) also it has to do with where you live. be more specific. i like lizards the most this time of year due to spawning.

Welcome to the forum!

Like bf02 said, that is a question with as many answers as there are fishermen. As far as I'm concerned, it depends on the water temp. Below 50 I like a jig-n-pig and a suspending jerkbait. 50-55, add a lipless crankbait. 55-60, soft plastics-C-rig, jerkbait, and spinnerbaits. above 60-take your pick.

I agree with Rebbasser except for below 50, Â*course that may be a difference between south texas and missouri. Â*Bass here will hit some lipped cranks in mid-upper 40 degree water as well as slow rolled spinner baits and lipples crankbaits. Â*I go with jerk-baits, finesse worms, jig-n-pig, and both spinner baits and crankbaits when the water hits 46 degrees. Â*It really depends on the conditions...now and over the past 5 days.

I'll have to try those next winter, basstech. When it comes to cold water I need all the help I can get

can anyone say "chrome plated whiz-bang"? ;D

Rich · 03-25-05, 01:04 AM

Dang-I KNEW there was a bait I was missing. Â*How could I forget a chrome plated whiz-bang?!?!?

Note to badbassin-there ain't no such animal as a chrome plated whiz-bang-It's an inside joke

;D

seriously,the only bait that comes close to a miracle bait would have to be a 5 inch senko.maybe the fish will start to get used to them but thet do catch a disproportionate # of bass.

Rob Mak · 03-25-05, 08:23 AM

aww reb you spoiled a perfect set up....

chrome plated wizz bang would work for sure. mind those of you the code ring must be used to either order it or get it to work properly...pnj you are sol pal..

best bait hands down golden shiner.under a cork on a circle hook.

zooker
