Hi everyone! If you’re a fanatic of bass big mouth fishing, you likely know the significance of having the correct lures. Lures are special tools that we use to attract fish, and having good lures can make a difference in how many fish you catch. Here we discuss the big mouth bass lures for catching these big fish. Okay, lets go over what each lure does, and when you want to be using them. Let's get started!
Crankbaits – Crankbaits are big fish streakers. Roaming in water draw big mouth bass — they swim in a way that piques their interest. Crankbaits come in all different shapes and sizes and colors so you can select one that matches your fishing water. They are superb in shallow water close to the beach as well as deeper water farther offshore. When you pull it towards you, it has a swimming action that big mouth bass cannot get enough of.
Spinnerbaits – Spinnerbaits are unique lures that feature a spinning blade attached to them. As you throw them in the water, the blade rotates and makes vibrations. These vibrations attract large mouth bass as they imitate the movement of small fish. Regardless of the water turbidity, whether it’s cloudy, muddy, clear or sunny, you can use spinnerbaits. They are super effective and can bring you more fish.
Because of this, jigs start to sink to the bottom and we're going to lead, let me tell you a little bit about this in case you are unfamiliar with these two styles of fishing — when you fish with a jig, it is a lure that has a heavy lead head and a soft rubber skirt. They resemble small creatures that big mouth bass like to munch on. You can even attach a component known as a trailer to the jig that helps entice fish with the illusion of a bait fish that just got attacked. Jigs are particularly good for fishing deep water where big mouth bass like to hang out. Using a jig, you can bounce it through the water and mimic your prey's movement, increasing your chances of catching fish.
Topwater Lures – Topwater lures are unique in that they float on the surface of the water. And they make popping or gurgling sounds as you reel them in, attracting big mouth bass. These are particularly effective low in the water during dawn or dusk when they come above the surface to feed. Whenever you see fish jumping or splashing at the water surface, you’re in an excellent opportunity to fish using a topwater lure!
How to Catch More Big Mouth Bass
Technique – It’s key to switch up your fishing technique with the lure you are using. When using a spinnerbait, for example, you want to slowly reel it back in with consistent pressure to mimic its lure. But with a jig you want to bounce it on the bottom to get their attention. To catch fish, however, there is a lot to learn, including your technique, which can change depending on what day it is.
