<h2>Lures for Black Bass Fishing</h2><p>Can we share a company secret with you? Whenever things get hectic in the shop and the pressure starts to build, someone on the team drops a black bass story from the last fishing trip into the conversation - and suddenly everyone relaxes. Toni & Daniel, the founders of the Pike & Perch online shop, are absolute black bass enthusiasts. It is fair to say they count themselves among the pioneers of black bass fishing in the EU and played their part in putting largemouth bass on the bucket list of more and more European predator anglers.</p><h2>Finding Black Bass in Europe</h2><p>The growing interest in black bass fishing in Europe has been driven by the spread of the species across the continent. A handful of venues hold impressive, well-established black bass populations. <strong>Spain</strong>, for example, has several regions with a strong <strong>Black Bass</strong> presence. The national parks and their waters - the Rio Ebro and <strong>Extremadura</strong> - regularly produce reports of specimen fish. Somewhat less well known are the black bass lakes of Portugal. Both on the mainland and on the <strong>Azores</strong>, there are outstanding venues for targeting black bass in Europe. In the south of <strong>France</strong>, along both the Atlantic and Mediterranean coasts, you will find black bass spots and dedicated anglers pursuing them.</p><p>Even in the heart of Paris, you can see modern predator anglers fishing black bass rigs. The BBF (Black Bass France) is an association of passionate black bass anglers. Catch reports from Germany are mostly kept under wraps, but black bass are there - they exist. Denmark, Poland, Hungary, Croatia... anyone willing to search will find black bass here in Europe too. Further down this page you will find our personal <strong>insider tip</strong> for one of the finest and most productive black bass spots you could wish for.</p><h2>Black Bass Lures</h2><p>What matters most for successful black bass fishing? Exactly - the right lures on a solid rig. For anyone starting out, here are a few tips and tricks covering black bass fishing, finding spots and choosing your lures.</p><p>We fish black bass actively, flexibly and with full concentration from start to finish. A small number of anglers prefer bait, but 99% of all black bass anglers head out with <strong>lures</strong>. These can be fished continuously without needing to refresh the hook bait constantly. One common mistake for beginners is to keep using the same soft lure after several bites without replacing it. Watch top black bass competition anglers and you will notice they swap out shads regularly and change <strong>hooks</strong> after a hard-fought fish. Treating your lures with the same attention to freshness as you would bait is a mindset worth adopting.</p><p>Our black bass lures here are divided into different categories. We have brought together the most productive black bass baits on a single page, drawing on many hours of personal on-the-water experience. Our team has spent hundreds of hours targeting black bass specifically. We have had the opportunity to compare the effectiveness of various Texas rigs and the well-known Carolina rig at very productive black bass spots. Draw on our experience and order your own black bass lures right here.</p><p><img src="https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0548/9197/0669/files/FOX-Rage-Spinnerbait-28g-Pike-NSA006J968f03sQo7bj.jpg" alt="Schwarzbarschköder"></p><p>At the very top of the list of the oldest and most widespread lures for black bass fishing sits the <strong>spinnerbait</strong>. We would wager that at least every second American angler has a spinnerbait in their tackle box at the water. Many European anglers have yet to discover spinnerbaits or see one in action. On one side hangs a spinner blade, connected via a rigid wire frame to the hook and the main body of the lure. The leader is attached at the midpoint between the two elements.</p><p>Other true black bass classics are plugs, crankbaits and poppers. Here in the shop you will find timeless versions of these lures alongside the very latest models. Today there is a great deal of experimentation with individual elements - plugs with spinner blades, creature bait 3D poppers in frog imitations and many other exciting combination lures. The brands we stock stand for first-class quality; you can count on durable lures with razor-sharp hooks and highly detailed designs.</p><p>Shads for targeting black bass are nothing new in themselves. What is relatively new here in Europe, however, are the rigs and techniques used to present soft plastic black bass lures. On top of that, shads are now available with tempting flavours, adding an extra and very effective dimension to your fishing.</p><p><img src="https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0548/9197/0669/files/Reins-Swamp-Worm-Mini-3-8-Motoroil-PepperUiM4MowJr6k2oEILCFADIRgLFy.jpg" alt="Praktisch Schwarzbarschköder von Reins"></p><p>If you ask us for a personal recommendation for a highly effective black bass lure, we wholeheartedly suggest the following: the <strong>Reins Swamp Worms</strong> in the mini version at 3.8 inch in an Oxblood design, fished on a Neko rig, is a genuine bass killer. Pair that with a small selection of the NAYS BLD RNNR 21 in perhaps 2-3 colours and you are well equipped for your first black bass session.</p><h2>Hot Spot Black Bass Fishing</h2><p>We have always maintained a close relationship with our customers and friends. That is how we came to happily share one of the finest black bass hot spots in all of Europe with you. The idea came up to stand together at the spot with our fans and catch big black bass against a truly breathtaking backdrop. By now there are customers who have fished those lakes with us on several occasions and pushed their European personal best higher each time.</p><p>The Pike & Perch black bass hot spot in Europe is the Azores. If you have not yet heard of this island chain belonging to Portugal, there is no need to be embarrassed - outside of weather forecasts and the high-pressure system that shares its name, many people have never encountered the Azores. The islands are volcanic in origin, and the fishing lakes on the Azores sit largely within the craters of extinct volcanoes.</p><p>Set within an absolutely unique landscape, these lakes waited for years to be discovered by ambitious lure anglers. Float tube fishing has proved itself here over time and lets you reach every productive spot without much effort. Plenty of black bass can also be caught from the bank.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><iframe frameborder="0" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/8-2gnlyUUYM" width="560" height="315" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></p>
