These are our Top 5 lures choices for Spring Bass Fishing. From the first signs of Spring all the way up to the spawn, these baits will produce. Whether you're fishing a pond or a giant reservoir, using these baits to locate active fish is a very effective way to catch bigger bass this Spring. 

One of the biggest mistakes we see anglers make is to fish too slowly during the Spring. This is the time when big bass are up and active more than any other time of year.

Buyer's Guide: Which Topwater Baits Catch Fish???

Everyone wants to catch fish on topwater but not everyone knows how to do it. The baits in this video are all PROVEN fish catchers! Tie one on, head to the lake, and if there is a topwater bite going you'll load the boat!

From Whopper Ploppers to Buzzbaits to Poppers, these baits are proven producers that you can fish with confidence on your local waters.

________________________________________________________

Sprinker Modification: The key to success with the Sprinker Frog is an exposed hook. We found that by removing the stock hook and replacing it with a Gamakatsu Wide Gap 3/0 Frog Hook we got a much better hookup to land ratio. This is going to eliminate a lot of the "weedless" benefits of the frog but if you're running in open water around cover, your hookup ratio will double by using this hook.
