Creature baits are not all created equal! In today’s buyer’s guide we’re simplifying creatures and craws by narrowing it down to 8 baits for different situations. Each of these baits will help you catch more fish throughout the year! Whether you’re punching mats, flipping, throwing a wobble head, or working a jig, there is a creature here that you can rely on.
These 8 baits all have very unique applications. One is best on wobble head, another is a bait we exclusively punch with, and yet another is the bait we turn to early in the year. There are a lot of great baits on the market but when you discover a key situation for a specific bait, you’ve got a bait that will put fish in the boat over and over again. If you want to shorten your learning curve, pay close attention to why and when we’re throwing each of these baits, then give them a try on your lakes.
We’ve included links to all 8 of these baits below. We’ve also included our favorite colors for each, the gear we use to rig them, and a couple great “All-Around” creature bait rods at different price points. All of the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
