Baits Cabela’s Bass
Beaver
With the introduction of the Cabela’s Bass Beaver, Cabela’s
continues its tradition of designing quality soft plastic baits
that deliver dynamite results. Flip it, pitch it, or jig it,
this versatile little bait lends itself to a wide variety of
highly effective techniques making it a must for any serious
bass fisherman.
At three inches, don’t let this baits petite profile fool
you. In fact, its smaller size is one of the main reasons bass
find it so irresistible. Other features include a wide ribbed
body that displaces water and tantalizing tentacles that
convince bass to slurp it up without thinking twice. And if it’s
smallmouth you’re after, this bait just might become the first
one you reach for every time.
Bass Beaver soft plastics are priced at $2.99 per package of
eight.

Z-Man’s Original ChatterBait
The patent-pending design of The Original ChatterBait makes
it the most versatile bass bait to ever hit the water.
Incorporating features of a jig, spinnerbait and crankbait, the
perfectly balanced Original ChatterBait can be cranked, jigged,
pitched, flipped, ripped, slow-rolled and trolled — all with
effectiveness.
On the retrieve, The Original ChatterBait emits a thrumming
vibration that is easily felt through the rod handle —
especially with braided line. This pulse draws strikes and
allows the angler to monitor the speed and position of his lure.
It is available in ¼-, 3/8- and 5/8-ounce sizes and 15
strike-provoking color patterns.

Fish Belly Hawgshad
As an aquatics educator, I lead canoe and kayak fishing trips
on local streams. On the first trip of the year in 2007, I was
using the typical bait of choice, minnows. Halfway through the
trip, I ran out of minnows. Being a bit skeptical about new
fishing products, I was a bit disappointed to find that the only
other lures I had with me were a single pack of Fishbelly
Hawgshad I had purchased as an experiment. With no other choice,
I decided to try a Fish Belly’s Hawgshad and on my very first
cast, I hooked a nice smallmouth bass. By the end of that trip,
the single “experimental” pack had completely won me over. Using
the Fish Belly Hawgshad, I out fished every other angler using
live bait in 19 out of 20 trips in the spring of 2007. By
targeting my cast toward downed trees and rock piles, I found
myself with a close to 97% hook up rate. On several trips, other
participants playfully called me fish-guru because they were
amazed at the amount of river bass I landed using only plastic
bait and a bare hook with no weight on my line. Every time I
heard one of my companions mutter, “He’s landed another one!” I
smiled to myself and tried to decide whether or not to share my
secret…Fishbelly. Half way through each trip, I would relent and
show them the Hawgshad and soon, they were borrowing a Fishbelly
and were happily landing fish. In many years of fishing all over
the east coast and in many bass tournaments on various rivers
and streams, 2007 was one of the most exciting seasons I have
ever had thanks to Fishbelly. I will not fish another season
without them. Any anglers smart enough to try a pack of
Fishbelly’s will most likely be “hooked” too.
Sisson’s New Weedless Crankbait
Lee Sisson’s patent-pending LIP GUARD SYSTEM
creates the first ever truly weedless crankbait. Now available
on a dozen of the most popular Lee Sisson wood lure models, the
new weedless design allows anglers to crank grass and timber
without the frustrations of hanging up all of the time.
The LIP GUARD SYSTEM eliminates that
frustration, and allows anglers to crank water that was almost
unfishable before. The Sisson weedless crankbait system also
uses a weedless hook made specially for cranking. The fine wire
protects the hook point from grass or timber, but collapses
easily when fish bite down.
To rig any of the Sisson weedless lures, simply
run your line through the eye on the Lip Guard Wire and then tie
it to the split ring as you normally would. The Lip Guard Wire
protects the lip, keeping debris from hanging on. Combining the
Lip Guard Wire with the weedless crankbait hook makes these
lures virtually weedless.
