No lure is best everywhere, so pick by where the bass are. Weeds call for a frog, open water for a crankbait or swimbait, and the bottom for a jig or soft plastic. These are the types we sell, with the sizes from each listing.
Best for weeds and pads
A hollow frog. It slides over the surface and the hooks tuck up. We sell a frog in 12 colours and a set of five in a box.
Best for open water
A crankbait, jerkbait or swimbait. They cover water at a steady speed. Look at the lengths and weights: 8.5 cm and 15 g for the crankbait, 11.5 cm and 11 g for the minnow, 9 cm and 26 g for the jerkbait.
Best near the bottom
A skirted jig, a soft craw or a Ned rig. They are slow and stay in the strike zone. Our skirted jig is 10 g in eight colours.
Best for a first box
A frog, a crankbait, a soft plastic pack and a jig head cover most situations. A lure box keeps them together.

Questions people ask
What is the single best bass lure?
There isn't one. It depends on cover, depth and mood. A soft plastic on a jig head is the most versatile.
What colour should I use?
Natural colours in clear water and brighter ones in stained water is a common rule.
Do I need many lures?
A small box covering weeds, open water and the bottom is enough to start.
