Cheap Lures That Actually Work! Save Money and Catch Fish!!

Fishing doesn’t have to be expensive! We love high-end tackle and JDM gear as much as the next tackle junkie but we also know there are some amazing budget options on the market. Many anglers can’t afford the top baits of today but with a little searching you can save money and still catch a TON of fish! Today we’ve comprised a list of our top 9 best budget-friendly baits for bass fishing.

Most of our videos are about dialing in your equipment to maximize your time on the water. We often throw budget to the wind and focus on the “best of the best”. Today we’re going the other direction… We’ve scoured our tackle and come up with a list of wallet-friendly baits that we have a ton of confidence in! We’ve caught countless fish on all but one of these offerings, even catching 10 lbers on that cheap Storm Sunfish!

Remember that a high price tag doesn’t always mean quality. Sometimes cheap prices reflect cheap quality but if you wade through the knock offs and mediocre baits, you’ll discover a handful of true diamonds in the rough. These baits have each proven themselves and should have a place in every angler’s arsenal. Below is a breakdown of the baits discussed in the video, including links direct to each product on Tackle Warehouse where you can see up close pictures and descriptions, we’ve even included the retail price for each offering so you know what you’re getting into.

Did He Catch A 10 lb Bass?? Spring Crankbait Bass Fishing!!!


Matt caught a monster bass on a crankbait! Crankbaits are a great way to cover water and catch bass in Spring. If you know how to adapt them to changing conditions they’re an excellent way to specifically target GIANT bass. Come along as Matt shows cast to catch footage of this big Clearlake bass then explains exactly why he caught it and how you can do the same.

We began teaching how to use the Tactical DD Crankbait to specifically target big bass back in November. Since that time a TON of big fish have been landed across the country. Not all crankbaits are created equal in cold water but once you understand the differences and how to apply baits with key vibrations to your fishing, your catch rate on bigger bass will increase.

Landing giant bass on light line isn’t just about choosing the right bait, you’ll also need the right equipment and a very patient approach to successfully battle a big fish on light tackle. Take your time, stay calm, and your new personal best could be just a cast away. Below is a breakdown of all the gear we used in the video along with some additional baits and gear that we recommend for cold water and prespawn crankbait fishing.

Keep in mind that many of the Tactical Crankbait colors are currently sold out. It will be a bit longer before all the colors are back in stock so you may want to try some of the colors currently in stock or backorder a specific color so you’re in the front of the line once they’re back in stock.
