This is my first Abu

Crankbaits When bass are in open water busting on shad, I like to switch to lipless rattling crankbaits like the Rattlin Rapala shown below

When the striped bass go silent, I switch to a slow-moving swimbait to pique their interest

The friction created by this contact slows the spool down, especially during the initial, fastest part of the cast when backlashes are most likely to occur

Colors should be natural, dark hues in dark water, and more transparent colors in clear water
