When it comes to bass fishing, soft plastic lures are some of the most consistent baits we have to catch bass. But there are literally hundreds of different soft plastics out on the market. In this video I talk about my top 5 soft plastics that I think will allow you to catch bass in about 99.9% of situations.
BassFishingHQ is dedicated to teaching people how to catch more and bigger bass. I will go over different bass fishing tips & techniques that will put more fish in the boat or on the shore. Whether you are just starting out or a seasoned tournament angler, my goal is to help you catch more bass.
