The Hottest JDM Baits And Trends For Bass Fishing!

Many of the hottest bait trends in fishing have originated in Japan. Today we've identified 5 new JDM (Japanese Domestic Market) trends that are making huge waves in both US and international bass fishing! Some you may have seen, some are likely to be brand new to you, but you don't want to miss any of them!

Historically the Japanese market has brought a lot of very refined techniques. They've also accounted for many of our current swimbait designs and concepts. Today we're seeing huge waves in the "dice" and "appendage" category, as well as topwater, minnow baits, spinnerbaits, and more. These trends are catching fire in the US because they're working, so today we're making sure you're aware of them.
