ajor League Fishing pro Jacob Wheeler is widely recognized as one of
M
the top bass anglers in the world. Some (including the BassFan World
Rankings) would argue he’s the best. Since he turned pro, Wheeler’s
been a consistent winner at each organization he’s been a part of and
in every tournament format in which he’s competed.
Wheeler’s success is due in part to his natural abilities and extreme efficiency
on the water. MLF’s every-fish-counts format has further showcased just
how quickly he can find and catch piles of bass.
But to catch those fish, Wheeler has also dialed in a key kit of lures that fit
his style and approach, and that consistently produce for him. They’re the baits
he doesn’t leave home without; the key clubs in his bag. They’ve helped make
him one of the most successful professional bass anglers in the game.
