In this article, you will learn about various types of artificial lures for bass. There are four types of artificial lures for bass: Swimbaits and Flat-sided crankbaits. Rubber worms and soft plastics are also covered. Because they imitate the movements of prey animal animals, these artificial lures are ideal for catching bass. Before you can use these artificial lures effectively, it is important to learn how to correctly work them. For best results, you should mimic prey animal's movements as closely as possible.
Soft plastics
Soft plastics have become obsolete. Bass baits now include sands, glitters, and colored plastics. These lures mimic the appearance of real life and are available with hundreds of configurations and colors. They can be used to catch fish by being rigged on hooks, jigheads or similar devices. This doesn't mean that they should only be used. The type of fish and the color of your fishing gear will determine which soft plastics are best.
Most soft plastic lures flot easily on the water's surface. Some bob a bit. A bobbling motion makes them appear more natural to bass. Depending on the type of soft plastic you're using, it can be difficult to determine whether a bass will bite a lure with a bobbling action. Before rigging, remove the weight from any weighted or weighted sinker.
Swimbaits
There are several different styles of artificial swimbaits for bass, and each has its own characteristics. Some swimbaits don't have hooks at all, others are less rigid and come with no hooks. A swimbait’s action is dependent on many factors, such as weight, rigging, hook size and length. Line-thru swimbaits work well if you are fishing for bass in clear waters.
Swimbaits are generally designed to imitate baitfish. They are most effective when bass feed on shad. Semi-translucent swimmerbaits can be seen easily in clear water. A shiny paint or glitter will add scale effects. You can use a variety of colors, from black and white to green pumpkin. Chartreuse matches the skirts of Chatterbaits. However, it doesn't matter what type of swimbait is you use, ensure that your presentation matches the species of fish you are targeting.
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. Some bass are picky and may require you to reduce the size. A smaller swimbait is an option if the bite is not strong. Don't forget about the profile. A spinning rod is a better choice for smaller swimbaits.
Flat-sided crankbaits
Flat-sided crankbaits can be used to catch bass in spring and autumn, when baitfish is very active. Flat-sided crankbaits for bass look and feel more like real bait than round-bodied ones, especially when fishing in shallower or colder water. Flat-sided crankbaits look and feel more natural than those with round bodies.
A flat-sided crankbait can be a great choice when fishing in stained waters. This is because bass are highly sensitive and very sensitive to vibrations. Bass are able to sense vibrations in their prey’s lateral line. Flat-sided crankbaits are ideal for stained water because they can swim faster in it. But, not all flatsided crankbaits can be used equally. Some lures may sink more than others, and others may swim faster.
Rubber worms
Rubber worms can be very effective as artificial lures for bass, but it is crucial to the success of your rig. A rubber worm rod rig can be modified to suit different fishing conditions. The most common are the Carolina Rig or Texas Rig, Wacky Rig or Ned Rig. They can be effective for attracting both bass and other species.
Zoom Magnum II Worms, for example, are great worms for larger hooks. It comes in green pumpkin and is 9 inches long. It has been available for years and is very popular with bass anglers. Its natural water colour makes it easier than ever to hook a bass. You can use it in combination with a Worm Sinker to create a pause or splash.
