Underspin Tricks You Haven't Tried Yet! (But You Need To)

Underspins work! Paired with a swimbait they bring more flash, more vibration, and unique colors that fool bass into biting. If you fish for bass in Spring and you don't have an underspin in the mix, you're probably getting out fished by someone who does! We have some little tricks we use to make our underspins even better and today Tim is giving it up!

First you have to understand the differences between the different underspins and what they're for. After that you get a feel for which swimbaits to pair them to in different situations. Once you've got that down you're a very proficient under spin fisherman and its time to start playing with blades and stinger hooks. 

Below you'll find links to the baits, heads, blades, and hooks that we use. We've included our favorite sizes and colors for each. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
