We've lived through the recent Chatterbait and Basstrix craze. So... what's your guess at the next new hot bait craze that will sweep bass fishing. From some of the reports I've heard early this year, here's my guess at the next lure craze, the Sebile Magic Swimmer swimbait.

FYI: I found mine at Dicks for those that have one close by
I've just ordered one.
Big Plastic Worms.
i'm sure the tackle manufacturers will let us know real soon
It might not be THE hot bait, but this is my new hot bait:
Yamamoto The Kreature - T-rigged backwards (thank you Fat Ika), with a 1/16 bullet weight pegged on top. Caught a ton of fish in my last tourney with it. Good fer flipping and casting.

But of course. As usual I'm the last guy to figure it out.
The Zoom 10.5in Ol Monster worm gets my vote or any monster bait for that matter. Bigger baits (swimbaits, ect.) and heavy long rods seem to be the new thing (again).
What ever I'm not using...
My vote goes to the Rattle Head Spinner Bait, awesome spinner bait.It will only take a pro to win something with them and look out you better have them before that happens. It has a unique sound and an excellent hook up to landing ratio because of the free swinging hook. Oh did I mention that the bass inhaled the bait I saw no need for a trailer hook.
6" Huddleston. Watch.

Right on. Sweet bait.

You ALL have it wrong. Nice guesses though. It will be whatever they call that ridicolus (?) buzzbait that B.D. hawks. You know the one, it has a frame that's like 18" long. They will also come out with a saltwater version for tuna, billfish and the like. So, you get yourself a dozen of these baits to beat the rush. You have to get a special kvd SUPER-BUZZBAIT-BINDER to carry them in. Oh yes, the lure requires a "special" rod that rm is testing for production as i write this.
Anything to do with BIG M. At least people on this website anyway.

That is pretty cool

They catch the only fish I fish for............
I think the new "Hot Bait" will be a finesse bait like the Flickshake worm & jig from Jackall. The trend will be soft plastics with some built in action for drop shotting or small jigs on light line. JMHO

Seems to be quite a few new big worms this year. The Yum Big Show, Zoom Magnum Speed Worm, etc. I've already purchased both of those...love me some big worms 8-)
ditto on the flukes- I've sold all my fishing buddies on it as one of the top lures ever.... give me a pack of them and a few senkos and I'll be allright....
I do not think that the next hot bait will be something thats on the market right now. The chatterbait and basstrix were not on the market for very long before they became hot. I think some new tweaking of an old bait will produce the next hot bait. Thats pretty much what the chatterbait is.
