Best Bass Lures

#1 Post by MayoMan »

Hi Everyone!

I know a mark renowned for Sea Bass and it is very sheltered.
I didnt believe The person who told me it was good for Bass because it just looks like a beach very far inland for Fishing

But i was down there the other day and a man was walking back with a handful of decent sized Flounder and also had 3 Average sized Bass on Peeler

Was wondering what everyones fave Lures were for Bass.
PM would be grand and rememberTIGHT LINES

Ive prob had most success with Slug-go's, worked really slowly, although it depends on the person, venue and what has worked for them too. For example I also have a tackle house feed shallow which people rave about but I havent had much luck with it :? and at nearly 30 notes it would want to start catching me fish! :lol:

Same as yourself no joy with the feed shallow, i switched to a shorter rod and lost a nice bass on the feed shallow i can see the difference since I've being using the 8ft rod. Mayoman you cant go wrong with the Lucky Craft flashminnow 110mm its a great little plug Bass love them.
