Come underwater and watch these bass destroy our baits! They’re inhaling dropshot worms, smashing ned rigs, and choking down tubes. If you’ve ever wanted to see exactly what happens to your finesse baits when you feel that “tick” in the line, this is for you! Its amazing to watch how the different bass approach and ambush each bait differently.
We focused on 3 styles of baits in today’s videos. While there are all sorts of awesome finesse baits the dropshot, ned rig, and tube are staples across the country. We included 3 different dropshot baits, 3 Ned Rig baits, and 1 tube. All of the baits used in the video are proven fish catchers that we have personal confidence in to consistently produce bites.
Below is a breakdown of the specific baits in the video (in order of appearance). We included all of our favorite colors for each bait as well as the terminal tackle we used to rig them so you can perfectly replicate the action shown.
