To get you started, first you should learn about the different bass fishing lure types that you have to choose from. There plastic worms, topwater plugs, spinnerbaits, rattling crankbaits, jig n’ pigs, twitchbaits, and live baits.

Each offers their own advantages and disadvantages which you will want to be aware of, so that you can choose the one that is going to work best for your particular situation.

The plastic worms are a very common choice for bass fishing lure, and plastic worms have actually caught more bass than any other type of bass bait, so it therefore makes sense why bass fisherman rely more on these lures than any other to catch their bass. Inching a worm along the bottom and working it down a breakline are effective ways to fish for bass.

Another popular choice is the spinnerbait lure. These lures are considered as being the most versatile, and they will account for good catches all season long, no matter how deep of water you are fishing in.

When it comes to the colors of spinnerbaits that you should have, you really only need a couple different variations. White is good to have to general duty and clear water, and black for nighttime fishing if you do any. You basically just need to make sure that your lure is going to match the color of the water as best as possible to keep it hidden from the fish.

Also keep in mind that although there are other considerations that you could be concerned with, such as wire diameter and blade size for instance, you really only need to worry about the length of the wire, spinner blade arm and the use of a trailer.

The bottom line, no matter which bass fishing lure you decide to lure, is that bass fishing takes a lot of patience. You can never be in a rush, because you will not catch any fish that way. You need to be prepared to spend a whole day out on the water, and be willing to put the time into your bass fishing endeavors.
