On the fourth day of Christmas my true love gave to me, four rebel lures, three weedless hooks, two spools of line and a fishing pole complete with a reel.
Rebel fishing lures! Do you have any? Have you ever used any? I can answer with a resounding yes to both questions. Though you’ll know I’m mostly a rubber worm person if you’ve been reading my posts for a while – when the season first starts in the spring I like to use rebel lures. The floating ones with a small lip work best in my area of the country.
When I was younger (back in high school) my brother and I couldn’t wait to go fishing once the lake thawed out and it warmed up a little. It had to be warm enough so that we didn’t need gloves to fish! We tried many different lures and usually ended up with success using either small spinners or a rebel humpback lure. You can see the humpback at the rebel site here:

Just why we chose the humpback over other lures when purchasing them is not really clear, but it was a wise choice. The humpback was perfect for our favorite lake. A floating lure that goes between 2 – 4 feet deep when reeled. The bass seemed to love it. We could catch bass with it when no one else was having any success. I still have my old rebel humpback – silver with black trim! And yes, I still use it from time to time. It’s earned it’s place as one of my favorite lures!
So that’s it for our fourth day of Christmas, fresh water fishing style! Hope you have a good day.
Catch you later.
