The Ultimate All-Rounder Bug Lure: Perfect for Floating or Sinking
1. The Classic Method: Fishing with Floating Bug Lures on the Surface
The high buoyancy design of the body causes its thin, long legs to spread out when floating on the surface, creating surface tension. To a bass, it looks just like an insect helplessly floating on the water. The built-in molded plastic core has a weighted rear end, ensuring stable floating posture and preventing the hook from shifting. Additionally, the elastomer material of the body surface and the hook eye integrated into the core make it durable enough to withstand catching numerous bass without breaking, significantly reducing the chances of losing it during full casts or fights. This bug-type lure is extremely versatile; you can let it float and pause on the surface or suspend and shake it, making it highly effective in various fishing situations.
Simply pass a #6-#2 hook through the eye. Since the hook eye has a slightly larger diameter, using a guard-equipped hook is especially recommended.
2. The Slow-Sink Technique: Catching Fish by Letting the Lure Sink Gradually
You can also use a weight to submerge it, making it an all-rounder that covers both surface and underwater fishing. Remove the molded core and insert the Through-Nail from JACKALL. With a weight of around 0.3g(1/96oz), it sinks slowly, allowing you to target bass in the mid-water layer with a slow-sinking, enticing presentation.
3. Mastering the Basics of Sinking Bug Lures: Differentiating from Other Bug Types
For sinking bug-type soft-plastics from JACKALL, there are also the WAMWAM FLARE and RV BUG, both made with high-density materials. In contrast, the high-buoyancy design of the NEED BUG results in a slower fall. Use the NEED BUG when you want to present your lure slowly and deliberately to the bass.
The NEED BUG falls slowly due to its high buoyancy material, making it ideal for situations where you want to give the bass plenty of time to inspect the lure. Since the NEED BUG has a neutral action during the fall, it can be your go-to for underwater bug presentations. For dropping into heavy cover, opt for the WAMWAM FLARE, and when you need a lateral movement along the bottom, the RV BUG is your best choice. This approach ensures you efficiently utilize the different bug-type lures based on the fishing scenario.
