quekua Posted March 31 Report Share Posted March 31 Hey guys! I recently just got into bass fishing (swimbaits) from a buddy who gave me a 9 inch abt trout. Went out for fun and got 2 and now am hooked. Seems like watching a bass eat a giant lure right in front of your eyes has a certain affect on you. I've been looking around online and just join this website last night. Super sick to see many other people who share the same passion in throwing big baits for some bass. Anyways I wanted to expand my collection from one bait to more. I am still in school so the budget is a bit tight, but I can make a few work out. I was primary asking your guys recommendation for glide baits preferably around the $70 to $100 range. I'm always open to used items as it allow me to get a slight discount and help get rid of something from someone else. For the small amount of searching around the internet I've done, some of the popular ones seems to be the drt baits and deps, but idk anything so I may be mistaken on those. Anyways thanks for stopping by and giving this a read, have a good one. Jim137a, BensBaits and Kyearsley 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MurdaJ Posted March 31 Report Share Posted March 31 You have the abt, maybe consider something that would fill a different niche: klash 9 quekua and Efrain 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jbr458 Posted March 31 Report Share Posted March 31 Savage gear magnum shine glide. Swims better than most of the sought after stuff and should run you under 50 bucks - @quekua quekua 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splitshot Posted March 31 Report Share Posted March 31 Welcome seeing that you have a trout I’d try a chop bait like the spro chad shad or like some one said above a Drt klash 9 and one of my personal favorites ms slammer. Efrain 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d say a wake is pretty essential for any swimbait fisherman Tealsprig 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BensBaits Posted March 31 Report Share Posted March 31 If bass forage a lot on blue gills I’d recommend a toxic baits whippersnapper. I know it’s not a glide but the thing gets bit. Welcome to SU! Efrain and quekua 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't fully decided whether I want a k9 or a tk, is there a pros and cons to having a bigger version of one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the info, I'll definitely check it out a see, for my knowledge bass here don't really eat bluegill, but I just started so I wouldn't have much of a clue, btw I'm down in SoCal so if you guys know anything about that, and what they eat.

dj1975232 Posted March 31 Report Share Posted March 31 A Toxic wake or Slammer would make for a good addition. quekua 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bgc Posted March 31 Report Share Posted March 31 Toxic abs whippernsapper (wade Hogg jr). For $65 it’s a no brainer. Better than most resin baits over $100. Toxic caught me most of my fish last year fishing in SoCal. You can even snatch the resin ones for $70-$100 on the black market. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
