Even MORE Lures that Imitate Tilapia
It’s abundantly clear that largemouth bass in Mexico (and some parts of Texas and Florida) grow fat largely by eating tilapia. Accordingly, many anglers heading South of the Border look for custom paint jobs to “match the hatch” and give them a leg up on double-digits. While my own success with tilapia-themed lures has been mixed, I still watch to see what’s available and may own more than a few naturalistic swimbaits, crankbaits, plastics and spinnerbaits. I cannot help myself.
Accordingly, I’ve previously outlines some of the lures meant to imitate tilapia here and here, I know that some of you have clicked through. Some of you have asked for assistance in locating some of the harder-to-find models or in identifying a custom painter. I’m happy to help where I can, and I’m also happy to feed the addiction, because new tilapia baits keep popping up.
I’ll keep my eyes open (and my credit card ready) for more – if you’ve got some that I’ve yet to identify, shoot us a message and let us know.
