A Sure-Fire Rig that Will Catch Big Bass -- Both Smallmouth and Largemouth

During a business meeting with a high-level company manager from Minnesota about five years ago, the conversation changed from discussing how to sell more products to a passion we both shared -- bass fishing. For the remainder of the evening, my colleague shared with me how he caught literally hundreds of bass using a simple rig. I was skeptical -- a trait of most fishermen when they talk to other fishermen -- but I listened and told him I was game to try it. The results were astounding! I began easily catching dozens of bass each time I hit the lakes and ponds. If there were bass to be had, this rig would get them into the boat.

Now I'd like to share this with others, but with one condition. I'd like to ask that you practice catch-and-release when you fish. That's important to me because I want my grandkids to always enjoy the same thrills I've had over the years. The thrill of stalking, hooking, fighting, and landing a lunker bass is an experience everyone should have at least once in his lifetime.

  1. The tools. Before I tell you about the rig itself, it's important to ensure you have the proper gear. First, a medium-to-heavy rod is best because it will handle both the smaller fish as well as that monster you're searching for. The reel depends on your preference. I've never been good at handling a baitcaster, so I usually opt for a spinning reel. But my grandkids even catch nice bass on small closed-face reels, although I'd hate to see them have to get a 10-pounder into the boat with their SpongeBob Squarepants rod and reel! The line should be at least 8 lb. test and probably no larger than 14 lb test. This often depends on your skill level and experience in landing bass -- the more skill and experience, the lighter the line you can have success with. I typically use 10 lb. test, which I think is a good all-around choice....
