Save Loads Of Money With The Best Lure Retriever On The Market!

November 25, 2020 By Wes Leave a Comment

Let’s face it, fishing lures can be expensive.

In fact, I have seen some lures that cost as much as $100 apiece. Don’t believe me? Check out a previous post on the most expensive swimbaits.

However, the idea of spending that kind of cash for a single lure makes me, as well as others, quite nervous.

Now I am not discouraging anyone from spending a lot of money on fishing gear. I understand that in most cases a higher-priced lure is most likely going to perform better than a cheaper option.

The part that makes me most nervous about fishing with such an expensive lure is what comes next. After buying a lure we attach hooks to it and then we proceed to launch it into the unknown.

Yes, we target areas where we know there will be laydowns, brush piles, structure, etc. All the while hoping (sometimes praying) that our lure doesn’t get snagged.

So it is not so much about making that initial investment that makes me nervous, but rather it is the idea of losing that money in a brush pile or a laydown. Not to mention the time spent trying to get it back or going to the store to find a replacement.

So what can be done?

Well if you are tired of losing lure after lure, you can have come to the right place.

In this post, we are going to talk about a simple tool that could save you hundreds of dollars a year in fishing gear. It is a lure retriever.

What is a lure retriever? Which lure retrievers are the best?

Let’s talk about that….

Analyzing 21 Lures In Search For The Best Bass Fishing Lure 2020

January 21, 2020 By Wes 1 Comment

BEST BASS LURES

best bass fishing lures

What are the best bass fishing lures? Talk about a difficult question to answer in a single blog post. With so many different types of bass lures and baits on the market, it is impossible to limit it down to one or even the top ten.

The reason that question is so difficult to answer is because there are a variety of different lure categories and under each category, there are several different kinds of baits.

Take, for example, crankbaits. Under the crankbait category, you have squarebill, single knocker, rattle, silent, lipless, deep diving and more are coming to the market each and every year. Then once you choose a subcategory there are a number of different brands that make the lure within the subcategory unique to its brand. And to think that is just the crankbait category.

We also need to take into consideration the seasons. There are lures that work best in the summer, and there are lures that work best in the fall. The same can be said about post spawn vs pre-spawn, and spring vs winter.
