We brought together the six lures responsible for some of our best bass of the season and showed the fishing behind them.

What we tested

A season-to-date evidence review using the actual lures and catches that produced standout bass.

What this session suggests

A useful lure shortlist should come from catches in real water, not just tackle-box popularity. The six represent different jobs rather than one universal “best lure.”

What this does not prove

This is a retrospective field review rather than a controlled same-session comparison.

Which soft plastic lure should you choose for UK sea bass fishing?

In this video we go through the soft plastics that have produced our best bass this season, explain when and why we choose them, and show some of the small rigging and retrieve tricks that help us fish soft plastic lures more effectively.
We put them to work in real UK sea bass fishing conditions, catch multiple fish, and one of these lures helps produce our best bass of the season , an 80cm sea bass.

If you’re into UK sea bass fishing, lure fishing, soft plastic lures, bass fishing tips and real-world fishing sessions, this video is for you.
If you could only carry ONE soft plastic for bass, which one would you choose?

Thanks man. Appreciate the comment. Keep an eye out for our website. Your comment and the lures you reference will find its way into our database smoother anglers can find what works for people. Love the Sandy Andy’s. I’m not sponsored by Westin either but definitely great lures. And the sidewinder skerries pro too. They do send me some free lures to test. But either way they’re brilliant lures and I’ve been using them for years.

I find if a bass wants to take a lure it doesn’t mater which colour. It’s had days that you need to run through the couloirs and makes to see what the Bass want… I’ve have most of my success with the Westin Sandy Andy’s. They’ve out fished the sidewinders…. 5-1.. I’m not sponsored and pay top money for these just incase you think different.
So I think I’ll stay with them.
Intresting video thanks for making it.

Thanks for the insights man. Every day is different. But glad to see I’m not alone with the success I’ve had with slow and low retrieve. In winter it’s even more pronounced. Hardly any movement in the lure or creature bait works a treat for me in harbours. It’s a question of confidence and trusting the method. Just because you might catch on a fast retrieve doesn’t mean that you won’t catch more or won’t catch bigger fish by slowing it down. Every day is different. Whic…
