How To Catch Bass With Plastic Worms! **Underwater Footage Of Dropshot, Ned Rig, And Texas Rigs**
Do you want to catch bass? Come underwater with us! Let's study bass behavior and learn about different lures at the same time! Watch how bass react to a dropshot, ned rig, and Texas rig, as well as how the baits behave with different rigging. These are the details you need to know to catch more fish!
We learn a ton about bass behavior when we go underwater, but we also learn about the lures we're using. Pay close attention to Matt's tips on bait rigging, jig head weight, and lure selection. Also, you'll notice in the underwater shots that no two baits are created equal so focus your attention on baits with neutral buoyancy and consistent action.
Below you'll find links to some of our favorite baits from each category. We've included our best colors, as well as our preferred rigging components. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
