Bass tackle: In the bass tackle
section I talk to you about what bait should
be in your tackle box,
hooks sinkers, fishing rods and reels.
|
| First let me
talk about which bait you should have in your tackle box.
First is a plastic worm. It's best to get this bait just
because you can use this bait just about anytime. The
color worm you should choose depends on the water you have.
If the water is clear I would use a pumpkin seed worm.
If the water is murky I would use a black color worm.
Another bait you should have in your tackle box is a spinner
bait. Spinner bait have metal pieces on it that are usually
in different shapes. these metal pieces hang off of a
skinny bar. The spinner bait also has strips of rubber
hanging down from the head of the bait, this is called a skirt.
The type of spinner bait you should get is the one that has
the metal pieces(blades) that look like a leaf, this type is
called a colorado leaf spinner bait. The color that I
think is best for a spinner bait is chartreuse, this is a bright
green color. The last bait I think you should have in
your tackle box is a crank bait. This bait is round and
has a plastic bill on it. The crank bait usually comes
with built in rattles. I would suggest that you use a
crank bait with a small skinny lip or bill. If you have
this type of crank bait, you are less likely to get caught or
hung up on something. |
