Swimbaits
There are many styles and characteristics to artificial swimbaits that bass fishermen can choose from. Some swimbaits don't have hooks at all, others are less rigid and come with no hooks. The action of a swimbait depends on many factors such as weight, rigging and hook size. The best line-thru swimmerbaits for fishing for bass are those that can be used in clear water.

Many colors are possible, including black and white. Chartreuse goes well with a Chatterbait's skirt. However, it doesn't matter what type of swimbait is you use, ensure that your presentation matches the species of fish you are targeting.

If bass are very picky, you may need to reduce your size. However, if the bite is tough, you can try a smaller swimbait. And don't forget to consider the profile. A spinning rod is a better choice for smaller swimbaits.
Flat-sided crankbaits
Flat-sided crankbaits are great for fishing during the spring and fall, when the baitfish are active. Flat-sided crankbaits for bass look and feel more like real bait than round-bodied ones, especially when fishing in shallower or colder water. Flat-sided crankbaits mimic the flat-sided movements that minnows and forage fish make, so choosing the right size and color will appear more natural.
Flat-sided crankbaits work well in stained water as they are highly sensitive to vibrations. Bass can sense vibrations in their prey's lateral line. They also swim faster in stained waters, making flat-sided crankbaits perfect for stained water. You should be aware that flat-sided crankbaits do not all look the same. Some lures may sink more than others, and others may swim faster.
