Fuzzy Dice Fishing! Is This Trend Real? What You Need To Know!

Bass fishing is constantly trending, but not all trends are worth your time! We've been following closely the last few years to the Fuzzy Dice trend developing in the United States. These unique Japanese baits that resemble dice, or Koosh balls, have gained a lot of traction the last couple years. So what's the deal? Are they worth it? And should you take the time to fish them?

If you haven't seen these baits yet they've been racking up tournament wins for a few years now and have recently caught the attention of main stream anglers. Depending on the brand you're looking at a cube or ball of plastic that is completely covered in soft tentacles. The final result is a "Koosh Ball" like appearance that seems out of place in the water. The key to this bait style comes when you impart action to the bait and all of the tentacles start moving on their own.

Below you'll find links to the more popular "Dice" baits on the market. We've also included links to the parts Tim uses to build his own, as well as his preferred spinning combos for fishing them. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
