The Best Lures For Florida Bass Fishing

By Marla Mills


The art of catching fish has been around for thousands of years. Cave men probably fed on aquatic animals as a staple dish. Whether intended for food, as a sport or a pastime, fishing is an interesting adventure. The success of a fisherman on a Florida bass fishing expedition however depends on his preparedness and skill. The type of lure greatly determines the chances of catching a fine aquatic creature.

Worms are natural prey for many species of fish. They are a tasty snack that is sought after by many sea creatures, and bass are no exception. Whereas live worms might be hard to find, plastic ones make good substitutes and are readily available from many stores. Worms attract fish from way below the surface of water with their wiggling motions.

Anglers use stick baits to catch fishes that swim close to the surface of water. This kind of bait is made of a floating material. In order to use this lure, the angler has to learn how to mimic fish movements. The floating lure makes splashing movements and noises when jerked to and fro. An up and down motion of the hooking line is enough to draw in schools of fish from the bottom of a pond.

In order to catch deep swimming fish, one has to use a sinking lure. The oblong shaped spoon is a fine sinker that attracts the creatures at the bottom of lakes. The shape of the spoon makes it ideal for sifting through weeds and underwater grasses. To use this lure one must however own a medium to heavy line that can be yanked from the bottom quickly.

Sea creatures are attracted to objects that make mild noises. This knowledge has inspired the design of the buzzbait. This is an innovative piece that seems odd at first, but is wonderful when placed in water. The buzzbait is hollow inside and has a small rear propeller that makes splashing movements when pulled through water. Its innovative design prevents it from getting caught in underwater vegetation.

In the hands of a skilled angler, the spinnerbait is a fish magnet. This lure looks a little odd on dry land with its shiny blades and jig head. However, the purpose of these parts is quickly comprehended once the lure is placed in water. When the hook is in motion, the blades spin and make subtle movements that draw the attention of fish.

The rat trap lure is considered a fish magnet. The devise is shaped like a small fish with small metal beads. When pulled through water, the beads make a jiggling sound that fishes love. This trap can be used in many water conditions. It works in nearly any type of condition and has for long been a must carry for angling expeditions.

For one to achieve a high success rate in Florida bass fishing, they have to invest in appropriate equipment. Such an expedition can be a fun adventure for individuals and families. To many fishermen, the joy experienced after catching a large fish is worth the tedious wait in their tiny boats.
