May 29th Weekly Tip

This time of year bass tends to feed upon shad to regain the weight they lost during the spawn. While a chatter bait has become the go-to bait these days, the spinnerbait is still a great lure. The spinnerbait comes in several blade and skirt combinations; each designed to attract bass through both sight and vibration. The combination you choose depends on water clarity. For muddy water choose bright or dark colored skirts with big Colorado or Indiana style blades in order to maximize vibration. In clear water conditions, white or translucent skirts tend to work the best with willow leaf blades. The main thing you want to do when spinnerbait fishing.... you want the illusion of bait fish without allowing the bass to get too good a look at the bait itself. It's also a great way to introduce youngsters to bass fishing because it a great chunk and wind bait. This has been your Seaguar Fishing Angler's Tip!!!!
