Buyer's Guide: Squarebills and Lipless Crankbaits For Every Season

Today’s Buyer’s guide is all about the reaction bite. In an effort to pack in as much information as possible, we’ve combined two of the largest crankbait categories into our final buyer’s guide of the season. We’re looking at shallow crankbaits for triggering a reaction bite, then switching gears to lipless crankbaits and exploring the best baits for fishing shallow grass flats, the best baits for deep water applications, and everything in between.

Choosing the right crankbait is a combination of 3 variables. First, do you want sound? Second, how large are the baitfish or crawfish you’re imitating? And finally, how deep (or shallow) do you need to reach? Answering these 3 questions will guide you to the best bait in your box, every time. From there, a small selection of colors is all you need to meet every situation.

Below you’ll find links to our favorite baits in every size and depth range. We’ve included our favorite colors, along with the rods, reels, and gear you’ll need to be successful on the water. All of the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

How To Catch Bass In Cold Water Without Slowing Down!

Winter fishing doesn’t have to be boring! So many anglers have fallen into the trap of slow, methodical fishing in the Winter. Did you know you can trigger a feed response by speeding up? Its true! Matt explains the keys to getting consistent bites in the coldest Winter temperatures without ever slowing down.

The key to consistent Winter bites with reaction baits is understanding what it takes to “trigger” a feed response. Its also key to understand all baits are not created equal. Cold water separates the perfectly balanced, perfectly tuned baits, from the endless stream of new tackle hitting the market every year. If you want to be consistent in Winter, fish the right baits with proper technique and its only a matter of time before you start catching quality fish.

There are 3 very different approaches to Winter. You can swimbait for a giant, finesse fish for consistent action, or power fish with bite triggering retrieves to try and find the best of both worlds. Whichever path you choose, Winter fishing is worse the effort. Its incredibly peaceful, there is minimal boat traffic, and the odds of catching a big bass are very high.

Below you’ll find links to the 5 styles of baits we use to trigger a feed response. We’ve included our favorite baits, favorite colors, and hardware upgrades where relevant. We’ve also included our favorite equipment for some of these techniques. All of the links go directly Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Buyer's Guide: Squarebills and Lipless Crankbaits For Every Season

Today’s Buyer’s guide is all about the reaction bite. In an effort to pack in as much information as possible, we’ve combined two of the largest crankbait categories into our final buyer’s guide of the season. We’re looking at shallow crankbaits for triggering a reaction bite, then switching gears to lipless crankbaits and exploring the best baits for fishing shallow grass flats, the best baits for deep water applications, and everything in between.

Choosing the right crankbait is a combination of 3 variables. First, do you want sound? Second, how large are the baitfish or crawfish you’re imitating? And finally, how deep (or shallow) do you need to reach? Answering these 3 questions will guide you to the best bait in your box, every time. From there, a small selection of colors is all you need to meet every situation.

Below you’ll find links to our favorite baits in every size and depth range. We’ve included our favorite colors, along with the rods, reels, and gear you’ll need to be successful on the water. All of the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
