Fishing With a Buddy?

There is nothing like an old fishing buddy. One that will always be ready to go fishing when you can. These kind of buddy's are the ones that you will always want to have around. But I want to tell you about a different type of a buddy you can fish with it a bait called a silver buddy. The silver buddy is a type of blade bait. A blade bait is a style of bait that is made of a thin piece of metal that looks like a shad bait fish.. The head of the bait is weighted to allow for casting and to let the bait dive as its retrieved. The bait looks like a crank bait in that it has two sets of treble hooks attached to the bottom side of the lure.

These baits come in different weight sizes from a 1/4 oz. size to a 3/4 oz. size. Most silver buddy lures has up to three different holes on the lure to tie your line to. The reason for this is so the angler can decide at what depth they want the lure to run. The holes closer to the front of the lure will let the lure run more shallow and the further back you tie on to the lure the deeper it will run. This is when you are casting the bait and retrieving it like a crank bait. But you can also fish the silver buddy in a vertical presentation .

This meaning straight up and down under the boat. When you are fishing the bait in this way you will want to tie your line in the middle hole to allow the bait to remain balanced as you fish it. When fishing the silver buddy bait be sure to never tie your line directly to the bait. Always use a snap or split ring tied to your main line and the attach the snap to the eye on the bait. There are two reasons for this. One is what I said earlier the body of this bait is made from a thin metal. So it would cut your line. Secondly this bait works with a quick tight wiggle when fished with a cast and retrieve style. And with the line tied to a snap or ring instead of directly to the lure it will allow the lure to move with out any restriction. This making the lure look more like a scared or dieing bait fish.

This is what the lure is made to resemble any way. This bait has been around for a very long time but you would be surprised at the fisherman that has never heard of or used this lure. This type of lure is legendary in the small mouth bass fishing world. Used for decades in the world famous small mouth waters of Dale Hollow Lake.. Made famous by the late Billy Westmorland. To some small mouth anglers considered the greatest small mouth angler of all times. Billy Westmorland swore by the silver buddy bait as a top producer of small mouth bass. It's hard to argue with that kind of endorsement of a bait. The silver buddy is a bait that can be fished year round just by changing the way you present the lure. As I said you can cast the lure like a crank bait on a long cast and work it back with a varied retrieve. Or you can fish it in deeper water with a jigging action or in the same way you would fish a spoon style lure. So as you can tell this makes the silver buddy ore of the most versatile baits that you can fish year round.

The silver buddy is one of the best winter deep water small mouth baits you can use. Simply fish it any where you would fish a spoon at. Best fished in areas where fish are schooling and suspending on deeper water cover like rocks or wood. or on structure like points ,humps, bluffs or channel edges. Drop the lure on a tight line and watch your line for any movement. When the lure reaches the bottom or the depth you want to fish start with a slow up and down pumping action keeping a tight line and watching your line for any jerks or movement and set the hook.

As you can see this is a lure for all seasons and will catch several species of fish. I am starting something new that I believe will help more anglers better understand better about fishing. I now have a my space page set up devoted completely to fishing. It will have new fishing articles and pictures and fishing videos updated regularly. I am also working on doing a on line fishing show very soon.
