·         Spinnerbaits: Spinnerbaits have been known to catch a significant amount of bass whenever the purpose is to cover a lot of water in a short amount of time. These lures also tend to attract the larger fish of the species as well. Although they can be purchased in a variety of different colors, one of the best bass fishing tips is to always remember to match your lure colors to the hatch of the insects and other prey in the area.

·         Jig and Pigs: These lures are also another option to go with if you happen to be looking to catch large bass. Many bass fishing tournaments have been won with the jig and pig mainly because these lures attract the larger bass. Work this lure on the floor of the lake in order to imitate a crawfish.

·         Jigging Spoons: These are a weedless spoon that often comes with a trailer attached. Use them when fishing in heavily weeded cover and grasses. Many times this lure will work better than anything else as they are quite flashy and easily entice the fish into biting.
