t’s proof positive that effective baits never

lose their relevance. Bassmaster Elite Series

pro Terry “Big Show” Scroggins looks at

today’s tackle scene and knows that the many different bait options available to him

today have brought about a stricter level of

discernment in his bait selection process.

“If you would have asked me 10 years ago

when do I throw a spinnerbait, I would have

told you it’s my go-to bait,” Scroggins said. “But

there are so many different baits available today,

like the Booyah Boogee Bait, that I really use

a spinnerbait a less frequently.”

Nevertheless, despite the array of

moving baits and situation-specific

trailer options, Scroggins said

the spinnerbait remains a highly

effective option.

“I guarantee you that every

Elite angler has one tied on in his

boat at all times,” he said. “It’s

something you don’t leave

home without.”
