48m
There are few places where 8" swimbaits will play consistently for bass fishing tournaments. If you're not in one of those places (places that take 30lb bags to win), you'll probably experience more tournament success with what Justin Lucas refers to as "tournament-sizes swimbaits", primarily 2.8" to 5.5" swimbaits in various body styles. In this remastered bass fishing class seminar, Justin Lucas shares his favorite 3 styles of swimbaits, the sizes he fishes of each type, the tackle he uses and where he fishes each type of swimbait.
