Catching Bass With Metal: The Trick Behind Spoons, Blade Baits, And Tail Spins!
Why do big bass eat these crazy things?! What is it about a hunk of metal falling through the water that actually fools fish into biting? And why can't you get them to work for you?! Today Matt is taking you out for a first hand look at the proper retrieves for each of these lure styles so you can start catching fish!
Metal baits catch a ton of fish in the Fall and Winter. The colder the water the more effective they become at fooling sluggish fish. The key to any of these baits is understanding their specialized retrieves. Once you've mastered how to work them, the rest is easy.
Below you'll find links to the exact baits, including Matt's favorite sizes and colors for each. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
