Top 5 Baits For December Bass Fishing!
December is cold but the bass are BIG! If you're ready to catch a giant bass, it's time to go fishing! We typically catch less fish in December but the bites you do get are bigger and you'll have a shot at the fish of a lifetime! Here are the baits we rely on to get bit during the cold month of December...
There are two very different approaches to bass fishing in December. Many anglers turn to finesse presentations and slow retrieves to catch lethargic bass. This can be very effective but it's also monotonous. This Winter, try focusing on baits that get reaction strikes, despite the cold, and you'll be surprised by the results. No matter what you choose, December gives you a great opportunity to catch a giant bass!
Below you'll find links to the exact baits, in the exact colors and sizes that we trust to catch these fish. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item. We've also included several of the key rod and reel combos we use to consistently catch fish with these presentations.
