What are your top 5 favorite lures for fishing Bass?
Posted by Best Bass Fishing Lures on Wednesday, December 30th, 2009
I fish bass from a boat and from the shore. I am fishing for smallmouth and largemouth. And if any of them are good for crappies you could throw them in too. You can make one list with 5 lures or three lists for each species. Thanks.

Steve Hon 30 Dec 2009 at 11:08 am 3A good lure I use for Australian bass which are smaller than the Largemouth bass you guys have in America but just as exciting and aggressive, is the Crown Seal Lure. Visit http://www.crownseallures.com. We’ve just opened up the website store so keen for feedback about the lure and the site.
Happy fishing!

eeon 30 Dec 2009 at 11:46 am 5My all time favorite is a timber tiger. they are difficult to find but still out there. Great for fishing structure and very versatile. Next would be a spinner. I prefer brass blades and the skirt color always depends on environmental factors. Third….a hula pop. Especially at night. Fourth is a jig. Again color has may variables. Last is a stick bait or a bandit. Good luck!!

Ranger Peteon 30 Dec 2009 at 1:19 pm 7My general rule is to go from fast, horizontal baits to slow vertical baits.
For lmb, i like a spinnerbait, boy howdy, spook jr, senko, carolina rig.
For SMB, I like zoom fluke, tube, senko, carolina, topwater.
Good Luck, Ranger Pete
