No single lure can respond to every situation. Whether you fish for bass in the Atlantic or wolf in the Mediterranean, in estuaries, open water, salt ponds or canals, there could be a multitude of lures that meet these conditions.

From jerkbaits and stickbaits to soft lures and casting jigs, if we had to choose just one, here it is, our selection of the best bass lures to have in your tackle box in 2025.
How to talk about best bass lure without reference to theAsturias 110 de Xorus ? We've lost count of the number of record-breaking bass we've caught with this lure. In our opinion, this stickbait stands head and shoulders above other surface lures for bass fishing, for a number of reasons.
Firstly, this bass lure stands out for its distance it can throw. And that's despite being just 11 cm long and weighing just 15 g. Its streamlined design means it can reach phenomenal distances, even in headwinds. This means you can to reach positions that cannot be reached from the shore or to stay away from areas where fishing pressure is highas in salt ponds.
Secondly, theAsturias 110 s'easily animates as a walking dog at the slightest touch of your rod. It diffuses a powerful sound effect when animated and attracts fish from far away. Whether in calm seas or heavy weather, it will never stall.
Thirdly, the lure quality is impeccable. Impeccable colours, paint that lasts, reinforced Decoy hooks and a solid frame, this stickbait will be perfect for stalking sea bass over time. Just note that the hooks rust a little quickly.
TheAsturias 110 is a meirveille that doubles as a classic for bass fishing in its box, despite a price tag that may put some people off.
The Megabass Vision 110 SW is the sea version of the famous lure we've already presented. In the SW version, the hooks have been changed to give you a longer life for sea fishing. Its design and splendid colours change in appearance when jerked. This change in light spectrum, which often triggers big bass, is a real eye-catcher. Vision 110 a special jerkbait in the world of lures.
In short, whether on board or from a boat, the Vision 110 SW is a real bar-taking machine, making it No. 1 in its category.

The Megabass Super X-Layer is undoubtedly one of the most effective soft lures for bass fishing in the last 10 years. Created in Japan by Yuki Ito, the famous designer at Megabass, it quickly made a name for itself in France as it is so formidable. Easy to use, it attracts big bass and often stands out from other lures for its effectiveness. In our opinion, its biggest plus is the rattles at the end of the lure which make a provocative sound for the bass.
We recommend that you fit the Megabass Super X-Layer in Texan on size 2/0 or 3/0 hooks. As far as animations are concerned, we fish with this lure either on the fly, i.e. bring your X-Layer up with a series of short, sharp jerks, then let it drop back down, or scrape the bottom.
We no longer present Black Minnow of Fiiish, so much so that in a short space of time it has become a the benchmark for bass and other predators.
Its patented armament allows it to prospect rocky and congested areas where sea bass are usually found. What's more, its hook-and-lead system greatly enhances its mobility in contact with the water. These are the ingredients that make the Black Minnow one of the best bass lures in the soft lure category.
As for the animation, you can use it as a cast/haul on shallow waters and as a pull on deeper areas. If the sea bass are active in the area, you won't have to wait long for a hit.
We recommend the 120 Shore. In our opinion, this is a Standard and versatile size for sea bass fishing in the Atlantic or bass fishing in the Mediterranean.
The Drag Metal Cast by Duo is a small casting jig that we're particularly fond of. Small but very dense, it is designed for long-distance fishing from the shore or from a boat. This will allow you to reach areas without being spotted by bass. When it comes to animation, we recommend using it with the rod held high for fast pulling or jerking.
The 20, 30 and 40 g versions are ideal in our opinion and will allow you to explore all types of environments. A real bombshell in the world of casting jigs for bass fishing.
The Lucky Craft Flash Minnow is also a benchmark jerkbait for bass fishing. It doesn't dive much and we mainly use it for shallow fishing. This bass lure casts beautifully thanks to its mass transfer system. It's easy to use in headwinds and over long distances.
In terms of animation, you'll notice that the Flash Minnow has a special rolling action in addition to its jerk, making its sides shimmer in all directions. When you stop the retrieve you'll also notice that this jerkbait oscillates on the spot. This is a perfect imitation of a fish in trouble. Sea bass attacks often occur at this moment. That's why the Flash Minnow has become one of the best bass lures in recent years.
The first thing that strikes you about Patchinko by XorusFirstly, its design is unlike any other bass lure. Secondly, it's the unique sound that makes this floating lure stand out from the crowd. Particularly sceptical at first, we completely adopted it as one of the best bass lures in our tackle box.
Like AsturiasThe mass transfer and profile of this surface lure allow you to reach spots where other lures won't go. Its unique shape will allow you to animate it at any speed and in any situation.
We are particular fans of Patchinko 125which is a bite-sized but not too bite-sized, allowing you to target any size of sea bass.
When the bass are sulky, posted on the bottom and focused on the small gobies and other small rock fish, the Megabass Dark Sleeper is proving to be a veritable weapon of war.
The sandy strips between the rocks and the rocky plateaux are the positions we favour. These are places where bass like to hunt, and where small rock fish are vulnerable. What's more, few other lures can get through these areas without snagging, unlike the Dark Sleeper.
The hook is armed with a sharp, strong iron hook camouflaged between the 2 parts of the dorsal fin. This feature greatly reduces the risk of snags. We particularly like the 77mm version in 14gr or 21gr depending on the area and the wind.
L'Artist Fr105 is also a benchmark for fishing for educated bass. In fact, this Jackson jerkbait is silent. This makes it highly effective in conditions where bass are wary and/or highly educated. Its design and colours allow the retrieve and twitch to shimmer on its sides.
The Jackson Artist is a quality jerkbait that we feel is worth highlighting for all bass anglers.
The Nitro Shad is a shad with a very pronounced rolling action and a fairly stiff, toned rubber which gives this lure a unique resonance and vibration. The best use we've seen of this lure is on a pullbait for bass fishing.
We recommend that you use the version 120 Nitro Shad and mount it on a lead head weighing between 7g and 21g. You'll see that the bass attacks won't be long in coming.
The Nitro Shad is one of our top lures for bass fishing in strong currents.
