What is the best bait for Largemouth Bass? This is a question asked time and time again. There is a very wide variety when it comes to bass bait, and it can be almost overwhelming to try and choose a great lure. Crankbaits, spinners, and soft plastics fill fishing shops from wall to wall, but which ones should you include in your tackle box?
Crankbaits have many applications and come in a very wide variety. You can get them to dive deep or shallow, have a wide wobble or a narrow one, and some even come with a rattle. There is a crankbait designed for almost every fishing situation.
Are they the best bait? Nope. They are a good choice to include in your tackle, but they have a great downfall. Most crankbaits have about six hooks on them, which can be great when it comes to setting your hook, but it can often limit the places you fish.
Bass like to hide under cover such as driftwood and grass. How are you going to fish effectively in this great cover with all those hooks?
Spinners are also a good choice to include in your tackle. They are great for beginners, and are a top choice among professionals. They can be used in a variety of fishing conditions and come in many different colors and designs. Are they the best choice of fishing tackle for Largemouth Bass? Nope.
Arguably, the best choice of bait would be the soft plastic worm. This is the most basic choice when it comes to bass tackle. Why is it the best choice?
It has the highest variety of ways it can be fished. It can be fished in deep or shallow water, and it can be fished in areas of great cover such as fallen trees and tall grass. The worm can be rigged weedless (Texas style) in order to fish these great areas.
The only bad thing about worms is that it takes awhile to learn to fish with them properly. It may take a lot of practice, but you will find your soft plastic worm fishing experience a rewarding one.
All of the bait in your tackle box will probably catch fish depending on the situation, but if you want to find the best bait for largemouth bass, stick with the basics and try a six to eight inch soft plastic worm.
