Bigger Isn’t Always Better
|
|
According to Bassmaster Elite Series pro Bryan New, when it comes to fishing a jig, bigger isn’t always better. This mantra is particularly true during the colder months of the year. “When the water temperatures start to get below 60 degrees is when I really start to downsize my baits, and that includes a jig.” says New. His go-to setup for his smaller jig combination is a Greenfish Tackle Bad Little Dude Jig paired with a Nories Baits Escape Chiba Twin Creature Bait. Downsize your favorite jig and trailer combination over the next couple of months and see if will help you put more fish in the boat as well! |

A pre-rigged jighead and minnow combination specifically built for use with live sonar, the Z-man Graph Shadz features a natural shad-shape body, highly detailed head shape, and forked tail that mimics the profile of the most common bass forage. Constructed from 10X Tough Elaztech material for maximum durability, an air cavity in the body increases the strength of forward-facing sonar returns, as the molded scale pattern traps air and releases air bubbles for increased sonar visibility.
Armed with a medium wire 3/0 black nickel sickle-shaped hook, the revolutionary line-through jig head rigging system and recessed bottom line tie provide the perfect line angle for precise horizontal balance, pendulum swings, and depth control. Finished with color-matched bodies, jig heads, and 3D eyes to tempt the most finicky fish, the Z-Man Graph Shadz enhances sonar returns with a balanced head design and naturally buoyant material that provides the perfect horizontal posture.
Includes: (1) pre-rigged jighead, (1) spare body per package
– Revolutionary Line-through Rigging System
– 3/0 Black Nickel Sickle-Shaped Hook
– 10X Tough Elaztech Construction
– Alloy Jighead for enhanced returns on FFS
– Color-matched Bodies, Realistic 3D eyes

The 2025 Falcon Bass Boat 18 Freedom was born out of a need to bridge the gap in the market between higher-end boats and more affordable options. In today’s economy, the cost of bass boats has skyrocketed, and many anglers are left with few choices. The goal at Falcon Boats was to produce a well-built, affordable boat that doesn’t compromise on quality. This led to the creation of the 18 Freedom, a boat that combines the best of both worlds. While higher-end boats can retail for upwards of $90,000, the 18 Freedom comes in at a more accessible price point of $42,000. This makes it a great option for those who may have been priced out of the market for a larger, more expensive boat but still want a quality fishing experience.
According to the team behind Falcon Bass Boats, many customers had been “forgotten” as the industry shifted toward more expensive models. But with the 18 Freedom, they recognized the importance of catering to this segment, offering a boat that could be customized to meet specific needs without overloading the price tag. The Falcon Freedom 18 offers a “build-your-own” model, meaning that while the base model is priced affordably, you can always upgrade specific features down the road. For example, some owners have added more advanced electronics to the boat, giving it a personal touch.
Falcon remained focused on the boat’s performance and core features, which delivers on all fronts, and with the boat’s affordable base price, there’s room to add those extra features later on. With a focus on durability, practicality, and customization, this boat is a great option for anglers who want to fish without breaking the bank. The 18 Freedom fills a crucial gap between more expensive fiberglass boats and aluminum alternatives, which can sometimes feel like a compromise in quality. Boasting an impressive list of features, exceptional build quality, and attention to detail, it’s no wonder why this boat stands out in the crowd. Don’t settle for anything less than the best – the Falcon Bass Boat 18 Freedom is ready to take your fishing adventures to new depths.
