LURES AND DESCRIPTIONS:
=======================
Topwater This type of lure floats and can be popped along the
surface of the water, creating an eye-catching slpash.
Topwater lures are best used when fish are close to
the surface, which is likely on an overcast day, in
the rain, or in the afternoon.
Crankbait Crankbait stays close to the surface of the water after
it is cast but dives when reeled in. Some crankbaits will
go deep, but most stay in relatively shallow water. They
can be tricky lures and are most effective in medium
depths and in cold water.
Spinnerbait Fast, noisy, and able to cover a lot of water quickly,
Spinnerbait is a good choice when testing the waters.
Small, dark spinnerbaits work bets in clear, sunny
conditions, while the bigger and heavier spinnerbaits
work well in the mud.
Plastic The most sleek type of lure, plastics are often shaped
like the bass's actual chow-worms, lizards, and crawfish.
Naturally colored, smaller plastics work best in clear
water, while brighter, larger plastics work in stained,
muddy, or deeper water.
Spoon When fishing in heavy vegetation, matted up grass and
similar conditions, a spoon is a good bet, since none
of its parts will get caught up in the plants. Flip a
spoon right into the vegetation then pull it through
without fear of entanglement.
Jig This fair-weather bait is perfect for sunny days and
clear water. Jigs are neither flashy nor fast and they
don't make any noise, which make them the bait of choice
when subtlety is paramount on those hard-to-fish, bright,
sunny days.
