How To Set The Hook & Keep Bass From Throwing The Hook

August 2, 2019 By Wes Leave a Comment

How to set the hook…oh that’s easy. Wait for the first to take the bait. Give the rod a good yank and you have yourself a fish right?

Wrong.

Learning how to set the hook properly is probably one of most important things a beginner angler could learn.

After all, if you don’t learn this important step, that big fish will always be the one that got away.

To help you land more fish we have put together this post to talk about the proper way to set the hook when fishing with jigs, topwater frogs, and crankbaits.

We are also going to highlight 3 important tips to keep in mind when hooking that fish.

What are the best crankbaits for bass?

Wow! What a question! There are so many different crankbaits on the market today, how could we possibly narrow it down to just a few?

Take, for example, the square bill crankbait, could you narrow it down to your top 5 favorite squarebills? There are hundreds if not thousands of different lures that fall under this category. To pick just 5 or even 10 would be difficult (believe me I’ve tried).

Now, let’s think about the broader question: what are the best crankbaits for bass? That question is even more difficult to answer, but I like challenges, so in this post, I am going to try to answer that question.

To make it easier, I have broken it down into 3 categories. I have picked a few from each category that I would consider to be my favorite and possibly the best (by no means is this list exhaustive).

I hope you enjoy!
