Best Swimbait Rod

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.

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

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.

What Is The Most Expensive Swimbait? – Our Top 8 Picks

most expensive swimbait

We know that big swimbaits will catch big bass, but can the same be said about an expensive swimbait?

Would it be safe to say that expensive swimbaits catch bigger fish?

Not necessarily.

Then why should I buy a lure that is going to cost me more money? Why would anybody want to buy the most expensive one, when a cheaper one can be just as effective?

The answer is simple.

More expensive swimbaits tend to be produced with better quality materials. These premium lures in turn, hopefully, will last much longer and in the end catch more fish.

So we could say that expensive swimbaits catch more fish, and since big swimbaits catch big bass we could theoretically conclude that big expensive swimbaits will catch more big fish than inexpensive ones.

Another reason people like to shop for lures that are pricey is because they look cooler, they look more realistic.

This is especially true with swimbaits. Lures manufacturers will spend a lot of time and money to make their baits look just like a real fish.

Does a more realistic looking bait catch more fish? Well, that is debatable.

Sometimes, I think lure manufacturers spend so much time perfecting the look of their baits because they know us fishermen simply can’t turn down a cool looking bait.

For that reason, I have put together this post to try to find the most expensive swimbait on the market. I hope you enjoy!
