BASS FISHING TACKLE
BASS FISHING TACKLE
FROM RODS TO LURES
By Ken Liebeskind
Yalesville, Connecticut
Bass fishing tackle consists of many different items, from rods and reels to lines, swivels, hooks and lures.
The rod combined with the reel is the main weapon of the bass fishing tackle arsenal, because they deliver your lure to the target. The rod you choose should be dependent on the size fish you're after and the water you're fishing on. It's also dependent on the type of lure you're using. When it comes to reels, there are baitcasting, spinning and spincasting reels, with baitcasters used for large freshwater fish, so they may be best for largemouth bass. One of the most important parts of bass fishing tackle is the fishing line, because it's the only connection to the bass.

There are monofilament, braided, fluorocarbon and co-polymer lines and you must consider the amount of stretch and resistance they offer. One angler says the rule of thumb is to pick the lightest pound test that meets the ratings of your rod and reel combo. Another element of bass fishing tackle is fishing hooks, with a variety to choose from based on size, weight, shank length and whether they're single or treble.
After you've selected your bass fishing tackle, you must pick a lure that will catch the most bass. Most bass anglers use plastic worm lures because of their adaptability to different water and fishing conditions. They can be Texas and Carolina rigged for clear and weeded waters and come in a variety of sizes and colors.
There are a variety of worm lures to choose from, but one stands at the top. It's the Walking Worm from www.scientificfishing.com, the scientific lure manufacturer that utilizes aeronautical flutter technology to trap air between tail segments to make the Walking Worm curl like a live worm. Other worm lures only move on retrieval, but the Walking Worm constantly moves like a live worm, which is the best method for attracting bass.
