Big Spinnerbaits for Trophy Bass Fishing in Mexico

These fine spinnerbaits are the favorite styles used by top Mexican tournament pros like Carlos Gloria and Dago Luna on northern Mexico lakes (Guerrero, El Cuchillo, Las Blancas, Sugar Lake, etc.) and the international border waters shared with Texas (such as Falcon and Amistad).

They're also the favorites of Mexican and American big bass trophy hunters on trophy waters across southwest Mexico (El Salto, Baccarac, Huites, etc.).

They've been used on trophy bass waters across Texas, including trophy catches made on Lake Fork and Rayburn with these spinnerbait styles.

Whether in Mexico, Texas, Florida, California or anywhere in the world where trophy bass are caught in thick cover on heavy tackle, these spinnerbaits are ideal. Please enjoy!

Style N Spinnerbaits.

It's hard to gauge size from the photos, but make no mistake - these are extra large spinnerbaits.

These are bigger spinnerbaits than most any others available for bass.

These have heavy duty long shank 6/0 Mustad Ultra Point hooks - a bigger hook size than usual.

They have heavy duty .040 wires with twisted closed wrapped loop eyes.

Due to the extra large blade sizes, the wires are a little longer in order to properly present the extra large blades on these spinnerbaits.

These extra large spinnerbaits are perfect in every proportion for trophy bass anywhere worldwide.

Style N. The Style N is a bullet-nosed shape that's best for fishing through thick cover. Just like a Texas rig bullet sinker shape, the conical Style N shape comes through thick weeds, tree limbs and branches or brush better than most other head shapes.

Style C Spinnerbaits.

It's hard to gauge size from the photos, but make no mistake - these are large size spinnerbaits.

These are approx. the biggest size spinnerbaits that are usually available for bass.

These have heavy duty long shank 6/0 Mustad Ultra Point hooks - a bigger hook size than usual.

They have heavy duty .040 SUPER WIRE arms that are 30% stronger, bend less and vibrate up to 50% more than usual spinnerbait wire.

These large spinnerbaits are perfect in every proportion for trophy bass anywhere worldwide.

Style C. These Style C's configured with the blades shown are great for shallow water distance casting across shallow flats. They are rugged to come through heavy cover when used with heavy tackle for trophy bass.

These Style C's are also well-suited for slow-rolling. Indeed the Style C is one of the best slow-rolling spinnerbait head shapes on the market. The way these are configured,  they excel to slow-roll through structure and along the bottom - usually in under 15 feet of water toward the banks and tree lines.

So these Style C's can be cast through thick shallow cover - or can be slow-rolled in deeper areas with equal effectiveness.

Don't Forget the Trailer Hooks.

Prime spinnerbait spots in Mexico usually have thick cover that makes it more difficult to fish with a second add-on trailer hook. In general, you will get a few more snags - but land a few more bass as well - with a trailer hook.

Nevertheless, most anglers will try to get away without using a second trailer hook. Most days, that may seem fine. However, there are two times when trailer hooks are especially wise to use, or put another way, it would be foolish not to use them when:

1. Fish seem to be "striking short" and missing the primary hook, add a trailer hook.
2. Fish are jumping right away and more than usual and you lose them when they jump, add the second trailer hook and they will not be able to jump off so quickly and easily.

As shown below, a trailer hook is simply a second hook with a small plastic tube used to attach it to your primary spinnerbait hook. You insert the second hook's eye inside the piece of tubing, and then insert the point of the primary spinnerbait hook through the tubing and therefore through the eye of the second hook, forming a second "trailer hook" on your spinnerbait. You will catch more fish with the second hook. The negative aspect of the second trailer hook is it snags more - but when fish are striking short or jumping off the hook - a trailer hook will help you catch more fish.

Buena Suerte! (means "Good Luck!" in Mexico).
