What is the best type of lure to use in Spring time for Largemouth Bass Fishing?

Answer 1

A variety of lures will work. Buzz baits and spinner baits early and late especially around heavy cover!. As well as rattle-traps burnt real fast sub-surface. Plastic worms and lizards are very effective.
Live bait would be night crawlers fished weightless and small frogs hooked through the lips are dynamite, although you rarely hear of them used. A swivel and 3/4 ounce barrel weight rigged about 18-24 above a #2 circle hook cast around cover or cast and allowed to waiver in the current will produce some heavy rod bending action!
Good Luck,
Take a kid fishing!

Answer 2

The best type lure for Spring Bass fishing is one that closely duplicates the predators that commonly raid Bass nests and steal their eggs. A Spring Lizard or a Bluegill are extremely good lure choices. Fish the Lizard Carolina rigged in staging areas or rigged Texas style on beds and Spinnerbait (NOT Shad colors!) in Bluegill colors on grassy flats near spawning areas.

On some lakes you can do very well with a 1/2 or 3/4 Red Rat-L-Trap pre-spawn.

Best of Luck.

Answer 3

I prefer the medium size Rapalla black/silver combo,but there are many ways to catch largemouth bass,the water clarity plays a part in using the correct lures,sometimes you have to present different types of lures, color combinations, different techniques of presenting your lure.Remember bass are predatory fish they like to ambush their pray so look for structures ie. fallen trees, boat docks, land that jets out (point) etc..One good source of information will be your local bait store,they know whats been biting and what other people are using to catch fish.Good Luck on catching your bass there is no other feeling when you land a big one.

Answer 4

spring season.....my favorite season for fishing largemouth! this is the time for largemouth bass to breed. they would strike at anything that gets too close to their eggs; which means that they would strike at any lures/baits that gets too close. i suggest a plastic worm or a spinnerbait. when using a worm, dont let it sink to the bottom, reel it in slowly, letting it surface cause the bass are in shallow water which is 3-5 feet off the shoreline. good luck!

Answer 5

My favorite is a live minnow about six feet below a bobber. If you cant use live bait, then try a Senko worm or another type of rubber worm with the hook hidden in the worm so it is "weedless" & doesnt get snagged. Night crawlers work great, but usually only gets smaller bass & get nibbled by panfish. If you can see the bass, try a few different colors of plastic,sometimes they will react to a certain color. I like purple,watermelon & black. I dont like the "neon" colors because they dont look natural. The reason I like the rubber worms is because they are easy to fish with ,are inexpensive & dont have the problems of getting snagged & lost like crankbaits or spinner baits. Fish in the coves, next to fallen trees & in less than 20 feet of water. Also, it is good to catch & release during spawn time to let the fish keep spawning. If you snag a fish with a hook deep in its guts, leave the hook inside of them rather than ripping it out.

Answer 6

Depends on lake your fishing(water color, temp, depth), it also depends on the location of the lake if your in a northern state the best lure could be diffrent than in a southern state. If im at an unfamiliar lake I usually start with a ZOOM magnum worm(red shad color)

Answer 7

There are all types of lures for different seasons, some will only work for that particular seasn but a soft plastic worm will work all the time.

Answer 8

I've had the best luck on plastic lizards. Choose natural colors like brown, black, and pumpkinseed.

Answer 9

Match you bait to the natural prey in the lake / river.

Answer 10

Good old reliable rubber worms always worked for me. That time of year they will hit anything.
