Thanks for those thoughts mate. Appreciated. So tell us more. What colours for bass work best and in what conditions. My experience is that natural colours like khaki work best alongside the white. But would welcome your own thoughts which will honk tomorrow database on Basslurefish.com for other anglers to benefit from. We’re all learning here.

Pink vs White Lures for Sea Bass: Does Colour Matter?

Details and original discussionPosted 2026-10-05 · checked 2026-10-17.
The best colour is the one that tiggers fish on the day. I've done a lot of trolling for pike with multiple rods and on some days, it'll be one particular colour that gets the most takes, then you just switch other rods to that same lure/colour and you're hauling. When fish aren't active, it makes no difference what colour you use, when they are - it's often does - which is dependant on water clarity, time of day, overcast or sun, depth, etc. I think a lot of guys who lure f…

I've been bass fishing with lures for a while now and it didn't take me long to start doing well, a lot better than most I would say. Having an understanding of colour and when it can make a difference is something that will catch you more bass and no, pink and white are not the best colours - people only think they are as that's all they seem to use...

Lure Fishing for Bass: 10 Things I Wish I Had Known Years Ago

Great video! My tip: if you take the fish home for dinner, check what is inside their stomach while cleaning the fish. Here in the Netherlands I find a lot of small crab and 70mm minnows. So I match my lures to that. My favorite lure colour is white btw.

Ive Just started night lure fishing for bass using the weedless savage gear v2 Sandwell 33 gram also the super continental paddle tail in whitebrigged up with a 20 gram weedless jig head so far 3 sessions with a new rod reel and line havnt blanked yet. biggest so far only 47cm hoping for a bigger one soon fishing the Gower cost Swansea.. White seems to work well and kahki, slow steady retrieve, nothing else.. Great sport on light tackle, i use braid Varvias Avani 0.16mm 20lb and a good length of 16lb fluro leader rod is 12ft 14gram to 42 gram travel spining rod rod and a Daiwa Exceler 23 LT5000CXH.. I fish off the rocks mainly find headlands with a bit of reef or anything that causes surf or water to break usually holds fish, last time out last week I was 16ft above the water no drop net or landing net had to lift it up, rod held well and fish stayed on.. had alot more success in the dark especially when it's clear calm and warm.. Don't think I will beat my pb from the boat 82cm but would be very happy with any fish over 60cm on a spinning rod..

My Top Bass lures of 2018 and why you shouldn't buy Cheap !

It's the megabass zonk. Because of supply issues the only way I've managed to find it again is to search for the lure and match the colours on the picture. This has been marketed in the past as various colours so be careful.
The amazon link below could be used as a colour pallet. I've checked my usual suppliers and none have them in stock, it's possibly a discontinued colour.
I'd recommend them in white, cotton candy and a mackerel immitation too. I'm always searching so if I…

I'd recommend them in white, cotton candy and a mackerel immitation too. I'm always searching so if I find a good supply I will post it on the big bass video and here. Thanks for watching those zonks are brilliant and there's about 6 of them lost somewhere on the South Coast snags!

How to Catch Bass at Night with Lures | Sea Fishing UK

A really inspirational video beautifully articulated with superb explanation. I have never really given much thought to lure fishing at night but down where I live on the Dorset coast there must be some great opportunities and I will definitely give it a good go. A couple of questions if I may: do you find that the technique works well into winter, after all we are already into the darker nights of November.

A really inspirational video beautifully articulated with superb explanation. I have never really given much thought to lure fishing at night but down where I live on the Dorset coast there must be some great opportunities and I will definitely give it a good go. A couple of questions if I may: do you find that the technique works well into winter, after all we are already into the darker nights of November. Also, I assume that you are using a dedicated red light rather than some sort of filter on your ordinary white beam headlight, is this correct and if so can you recommend a specific brand of red light? Once again, many thanks for a great video.
