Chad Brauer on How to Fish with the Best Lures Available

Fishing the Midnight Premier Pro Model

Editor's Note: Thirty-year-old Chad Brauer of Osage Beach, Missouri, doesn't know what life without bass fishing would be like. He grew up in the shadow of his father, professional bass-fisherman Denny Brauer. But Chad has begun to cast his own shadow in the world of bass fishing. He is one of the most-respected young fishermen on the tournament circuit trail and is definitely part of the future of bass fishing.

Brauer: The Midnight Premier Pro Model is different from other spinner baits you may find on the market because it is spinner bait designed to be fished at night. It has a rattle and an Indiana blade for vibration noise, and it comes in colors like black-and-blue and black-and-red -- colors that seem to favor the nighttime.

I've also fished this spinner bait in muddy waters, when traditional colored spinner baits like white and chartreuse haven’t worked as well. I think the combination of the dark color and the vibrations that this bait makes is what causes it to be productive in dark water. When you can't see more than 6 inches in the water, try working the bait extremely slow. With this bait, you can generate strikes when you really don't have anything else going.
