Unlock More Bites with Expert Lure Modification for Bass Fishing!
Dive into the world of lure modification and learn how to gain an edge in bass fishing. This live show explores various techniques and tips for tweaking your fishing baits to trigger more strikes, especially from pressured fish.
Topics covered include:
Buzzbait modification: Learn how to tune your buzzbaits for maximum squeal. Discover the advantage of using an assist hook like the Gamakatsu G-Stinger to increase your hook-up ratio. Also, explore how blades can affect the bait's direction.
Swimbait modification: Get insights into the dead walking fishing technique using big swimbaits, emphasizing subtle movements and micro reel turns to mimic a dying baitfish. Learn how to replace damaged soft plastic tails using unique materials like old blister packaging plastic, cutting them to change the bait's action and swimming performance.
Repairing fishing lures: Don't trash your expensive baits! Find out how to fix broken fishing lures, such as MegaBass jerkbaits with broken lips or tails. Learn how modifying a broken bait can give it a realistic look and a new chance at life.
Adding flash and scent: Understand the importance of adding tinsel or flash to spinnerbaits, buzz baits, and chatterbaits to create realism and signal bait fish. Hear about using scents like Thump Gel, which acts as a color modification tool to make baits look like they have blemishes.
Tactics for pressured fish and post-spawn: Discover how these modifications and techniques are particularly effective for triggering strikes from pressured fish and targeting post-spawn bass that might prefer a more subtle presentation.
