October 19, 2022 By Wes Leave a Comment

BEST CRANKBAIT ROD

Have you ever needed a hammer, but used the back of a screwdriver or something similar instead?

Yes, it did get the job done, but it would have been a lot easier to use a tool that was designed specifically for that purpose.

The same is true when it comes to crankbait fishing. Yes, you can use any fishing pole to get the job done, but you will enjoy fishing more and perhaps be more successful by using the right tools.

In this post, we will discuss what makes a good fishing rod, the best crankbait rod.

If you could only fish with one lure for a day what lure would you choose? Personally, I probably would grab a lipless crankbait.

Many would agree that lipless crankbaits are some of the best ways to catch big bass.

For one, the size of the lure allows you to throw them a mile, thus making it very easy to cover a lot of water.

They are also super easy to use, whether you like to work them across the bottom,  burn them across the top or use the yo-yo retrieve, you are bound to catch a fish no matter the (or lack of) fishing experience you have.

Lastly, they give off a great about of vibration and sound that many have said acts like a dinner bell in drawing in bass for a bite.

What more can I say? These baits are a must-have when fishing. However, did you know that there are several different types of lipless crankbaits available on the market today? What makes it worse is that no two lures are exactly alike. They all bring their own uniqueness to the fishing scene.

How can a fisherman know which one to throw?

In this post, we are going to take a closer look at some of my favorites.

Backlash!

Just hearing that word makes me sick to my stomach.

In order to prevent backlashes when fishing with a casting reel it is essential to take into consideration your casting technique as well as your equipment.

And it goes without saying that one of the most important pieces of equipment to make long accurate casts is your fishing line.

However, with the variety of different lines on the market today(fluorocarbon, braid, monofilament, super lines etc.), it can be extremely difficult to distinguish which option is the best for your fishing needs.

For that reason, in this post let’s take a closer look at what is the best fishing line for baitcasting reels.

Swimbaits are a favorite choice among bass fishermen who are targeting that big bite. However, just as important to choosing the right lure, is selecting the right equipment.

After all, if you get a fish to bite, but don’t have the right reel, rod or line, it might cost you a fish. And we all know that when fishing with big lures such as swimbaits, we are already limiting the number of bites we will get on a given trip.

For that reason, we need to be well equipped so that when a big bass takes the bait, he will stay pinned until we get him into the boat.

An essential piece of equipment when fishing with these lures is a good fishing rod. In this post, we are going to talk about what makes a fishing rod a good swimbait rod. Lastly, we are going to talk about a few of our favorites ( 6 to be exact) that are available on the market today.
