Bass Lures

There’s all types of different ways you can work the Gitzit on smallmouth bass. I kind of like jerking it really fast in the summer time and really slow in the spring and fall. A key point is to keep jigging it right near the boat when you reel up, you definitely don’t want to stop. A lot of the bass will follow the Gitzit right up to the boat and hit it. That’s what happened on my last fishing trip. The smallmouth bass followed the Gitzit right up to the boat, I twitched it a bit and bam!

If you ever get a follow up and the fish disappears, trying doing the figure eight in the water with your lure. Fish just can’t resist that!

There’s something truly unique about the Gitzit I haven’t seen in other jigs or lures. It swims like a wounded fish and wiggles it’s tail to entice that big bass. When my brother first showed me the lure and we used it on lake St. Clair, I just new I had to buy a whole bunch of them. The lure can be hard to find, we try to keep a stock up on our website. But, they come and go really fast. If you can find them on here, you can try Dick’s Sporting Goods or Sports Authority. Those are the only fishing stores that I know of that carries the Gitzit lure.

So if you haven’t bought a few yet, give them a try on your next fishing trip. Smallmouth bass can’t resist them, they are also good on largemouth. I’ve caught quite a few largemouth bass on the lure.

I suggest trying the Gitzit “Mother of all Minnows or the “Bully” or “Paddle” fry sizes. I haven’t tried any of Gitzit’s other jigs yet, but they do look pretty good. I wouldn’t mind trying the “Helpless Size Crappie,” “Hard Time Minnow,” or the “Fat Gitzit Tubes.” The “Helpless Size Crappie” looks prime time man. I bet that would work great on Pike and Bass.
