      I tend to tie a Palomar knot a lot on hooks and a non-slip loop knot with tag end towards lure on crank baits. Knowing some others may be helpful.

    Hey Nat, I’m using 45lbs braid 3.0 and 40lbs fluoro leader, which knot should I use for tying leader and braid?
    Also what knot should I use for connecting to lures, I usually do Triline but they kind of doesnt really tighten down, that good.

    • @FishingwithNat
      @FishingwithNat  6 місяців тому +1

      For heavy line like that, I'd go with a Uni knot or San Diego jam knot to your lure and a Double uni or blood knot to connect your lines together. Try them all out and see which ones you like best.

    What’s the best lures for bass fishing right now ?

    • @FishingwithNat
      @FishingwithNat  5 місяців тому +1

      Generally, you're going to have the best luck with slower, smaller baits in cold water. Suspending jerkbaits, small jigs, dropshot rigs, Ned rigs, and Neko rigs would be good choices. Work them slow so the bass don't have to work too hard.

      That's a surprisingly complicated question. The answer changes depending on season, weather conditions, forage, and even your experience level. Bass are generalist predators so they will strike a wide variety of baits, but the best bait for a particular day can change a ton depending on the things I mentioned above.
