What are some heavy bass lures? 2024


fishing user avatarTylerT123 reply : 

By heavy, I mean heavy in ounces. Like the A-Rig, Swimbaits... I can’t think of many others, any you can think of or can recommend?


fishing user avatarDorado reply : 

There are structure spoons that fit in the 1oz-2oz category 


fishing user avatarDirtyeggroll reply : 

Whopper plopper 130 and up.

 

Heavy punch rigs


fishing user avatarbigturtle reply : 

You can keep adding lead to a jig or something and make it as heavy as you want to

Magnum crankbaits


fishing user avatarBluebasser86 reply : 

There's punch weights over 2oz. A big hunk of plastic can get heavy. I've got some custom poured 16" worms that are probably over an ounce before I add a hook or weight. Big spinnerbaits run 1.5-2oz like the Ledgebuster spinnerbaits. The biggest rattle trap that Bill Lewis made, and maybe still does, was 1.5 ounces. Tons of big swimbaits, some over a pound. A 190 Whopper Plopper is 2 3/4 ounces. Big topwater walkers and pencil baits are mostly in the 1-1.75 ounce range. River2Sea Bubble Walker 128 is a massive popper that weighs 1 1/4oz. Hack Attack jigs are available up to 1 1/4oz.

 

There's lots of big baits out there.

MS slammers are out of my price range and hudds are a little more than I’d like to spend.

A Slammer can catch you hundreds of fish per bait provided you don't do anything silly with it though. The cost per fish ratio is much cheaper than a bag a Senkos if you look at it that way. I've caught I don't know how many fish on the first one I bought and it's still going strong.

I don’t even buy Senkos, I buy Yum Dingers and they work fine. I can probably justify spending at most $20 for a single bait every now and then, the most I’ve spent on one is about $16 but $32 for a lure would make me not want to fish it. The more expensive lures I have, which are topwaters, I usually fish with 20lb line, I’m young as well, need to save some money.

Yeah, I’ve seen some that are around 10 oz or so.

Plenty of swimbaits out there over 10oz


fishing user avatardesmobob reply : 

I'm trying to find a place in my tackle boxes to fit two more Rapala Super Shad Raps I just picked up.  They're 1 5/8 oz. each.  

 

Tight lines,

fishing user avatarbigbill reply :

if you're young i wouldn't really be looking at swimbaits the normally require a new setup to throw them effectively

depends on the rod i definitely wouldn't recommend throwing a 2+ oz swimbait on a rod rated up to 1oz
