November Bass Fishing Tricks ( As Water Temps Drop )

Cobi Pellerito is doing some Fall bass fishing in the North and he’s invited us along for the ride. Jump in the passenger seat and enjoy the show as he targets big fish at the end of the season. He’s exploring a brand new lake, covering water, and looking for active fish. Listen to the details of how he selects likely spots to fish, and how he adapts to get consistent bites.

Cobi is an excellent addition to the Tactical Family and brings an incredible knowledge base, honed through years of targeting trophy Smallmouth and Largemouth. Today he focused on fishing that were staging around juvenile baitfish, and caught a variety of species. It’s no surprise that a minnow and a swimbait made up the majority of the catches, but he was very specific with his bait and color choices.

Below you’ll find links to all the baits he used throughout the day. We’ve included the exact colors, jigheads, as well as details of the rods and reels he used to fish the baits effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Key Baits For Fall Bass Fishing That Most Anglers Forget To Use!

Jump in the boat for an incredible Fall afternoon on the water! Tim is headed out to power fish for a few hours and has no idea what he's in for! He's not going to get many bites, he'll have to adapt, but the GIANTS are in a feeding mood. Come along and see what happens next!

Fall brings amazing opportunities to catch big bass. There is a period before Winter where these bigger fish are in the shallows feeding and if you're there, you have a great shot to catch them. Tim thought he was going largemouth fishing today, he had no idea there would be trophy class Smallmouth. It just goes to show, you always need to be ready to adapt.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear he used throughout the day. We've included the bites he started out throwing, the bait that caught all the big smallmouth, as well as the rod and reel combos he used to fish these baits effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Fishing The Most Overlooked Lure In Bass Fishing! ( Proof You Should Try It )

Jump in the boat with Matt for a wild, windy day on the water! He's targeting trophy Smallmouth Bass in crystal clear water, using one of the most overlooked baits in bas fishing. The spy bait might be the most under rated bait in fishing. Its ability to catch big fish in both clear and stained water is remarkable, and almost no one throws it.

There aren't many baits that are this good, that go unnoticed by the majority of anglers. From fan casting flats, to ledge fishing, to targeting schooling fish, the spy bait should have a place in your box! These baits don't look like much in the water, but you can see from the giant that Matt caught, big fish can't resist them.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear Matt used throughout the day. We've included his favorite sizes, colors, and rigging components, as well as the rod and reel combos he used to fish them effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Insane Summer BFS Fishing! Finesse Paddletails For BIG Bass!

Jump in the boat with Tim for an amazing day on the water! He wasn't planning to film today, but when the big bass started coming in the boat, he knew he had to fire up the camera and share the experience. His BFS rods got a work out as he quickly loaded 27 lbs of Smallmouth into the boat!

The key today was targeting active fish around cover with finesse swimbaits. Off camera, Tim made a lot of adjustments, trying different baits to dial in a pattern, but all they wanted was the small paddle tail. He switched between 3 baits in 4 sizes to catch his limit of fish.

Below you'll find links to all the baits he used throughout the day, along with the rod and reel combos he used to fish them effectively. We've also included some great budget-friendly finesse rods (BFS and Spinning) to help you fish these baits effectively, even on a budget.
