Welcome to BassExpert!
Here are some terms we've used in BASS EXPERT and what we think they mean.
- Shiner: A particular species of large minnow.
- Spinnerbait: Wire contraptions with a spinning blade attached. They come
in safetypin varieties that include Strike King and Turnabout. Inline spinners
include the Snagless Sally, Mepps, Roostertail, and Vibrax.
- Stickbait: A wooden or plastic cigar-shaped lure also known as a jump
bait. They include the Heddon Zara Spook, Burke Top Dog, Mann Dancer, Ozark
Mountain Wood Walker, Bagley Chug-O-Lure, and Storm Chug Bug. A stick- bait
has no action of its own, so it requires the fisherman to develop his twitching
skills. Structure: Anything "different" in the water that bass may hang
around.

over cover. Examples are the Johnson Silver Minnow, the Skitterfish, and
