2025 BUYER'S GUIDE! Best Spinnerbaits, Trailers, Alabama Rigs, and Gear!
Today's buyers guide is all about spinnerbaits and A–Rigs! We're streamlining two of the largest categories in bass fishing to help you fish with confidence! Come along as we take a quick dive into some of the best spinnerbaits and rigs on the market!
Spinnerbait options can leave the most seasoned angler confused! Different shapes, sizes, and blade configurations all impact the effectiveness of your bait. The same can be said for A–Rigs, but not after today! With spinnerbaits, we're focused on baits that run flat, track true, and fish well when paired with simple trailers. With A–Rigs we're focused on reliable baits with great movement!
Below you'll find links to the baits and gear in the order we discussed them. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of the items.
