Top 5 Baits For December Bass Fishing!
December is cold but the bass are BIG! If you're ready to catch a giant bass, get outside and go fishing! You may not catch a ton of fish but the bites you get tend to be bigger and you'll have a shot at the fish of a lifetime! Here are the baits we rely on to get bit during the cold month of December!
You have a few different options in December. You can slow down and finesse, hoping to just get bit. You can use aggressive baits to trigger a feed response, despite the cold water (our favorite way to catch them). Or you can pick up a giant swimbait and commit to slowly crawling bottom around likely structures in search of a monster bass! No matter what you choose, you can catch a really big bass all month long.
Below you'll find links to the exact baits, in the exact colors and sizes that we trust to catch these fish. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
