Bait Trends Change Again | Articles-Fishing Lures, Spinnerbaits, Hair Jigs, Bass Lures

Bait Trends Change Again As baits change, and technology pushes forward, 2010 once again showed some big changes as we head into 2011. The professional tournament trail once again proved that changing trends in baits has evolved once again. The biggest change came in crank baits and swim baits, we were so accustomed to noisy crank baits and now heading into 2011 noise from rattling to knocking is going quiet. No longer are the tournament anglers looking for noisy crank baits, instead there taking many of their existing baits drilling holes in them and removing the noise makers. The bass are so beat up in the heavy pressured lakes that noise has become a detractor instead of an attractor as it has over the past many years. New crank baits are being designed without noise and most tournament anglers are finding great success by going to quiet baits with a lot of erratic wrist motion and speed changing retrieves. Also, the tournament trail has found that a combination of quiet baits changing to noisy baits when the bass stop biting has proven to be a successful method of catching big bags of fish. It could be as simple as day to day as the bass get beat up during long tournament days that changing from quiet baits to noisy baits and visa-versa are putting big stringers in the boat. Swim baits have become part of every anglers tackle box and more and more they are producing big bags of fish during professional tournaments. There are plenty of different types and styles and experimenting with several in all kinds of conditions is producing big tournament fish. Fishing them deep, shallow, over spawning beds and over grass has all produced good fish. Rigging changes have also become a big producer, as pros are fishing them as trailers for jigs, chatter baits and swim jigs and are all produced tournament weights and winning combinations.
