RAW and UNCUT Fishing For BIG Bass!

Come along for a day of bass fishing! Watch how we build patterns and target these BIG bass in a large lake. If you want to see what its like to really figure out a new body of water, this is for you! We're using a chatterbait, swimbait, fluke, and topwater to coax these fish into biting. 

This style of video gives a complete view of what its really like to get out on the water and dial in the fish. When we're just showing highlights its easy to assume that we don't have struggles. Put this video on and watch the ups and downs, the good decisions and the bad, and see how it plays out in the end as Tim sticks some true monster bass! If you don't have time to watch it all, use the cut points below to jump between highlights. If you enjoy this style of video leave a comment and let us know!

These bass are transitioning into the shallows to feed and spawn. Spring has arrived in the South and these bass are feeding! If you want to replicate some of these patterns, we've included links to all the equipment Tim was using. All of the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item. We've included relevant colors, as well as the rods and reels he was using to throw the baits.

Swimbait Fishing Is EASY! Spring Bass Fishing For BIG Bass!

We're down in Georgia and Matt is throwing big baits! Come along on a post-front day and watch how Matt targets big bass with a swimbait despite tough conditions. Spring is prime time to catch a new personal best and Matt is showing us just how easy it can be when you commit to a big swimbait and fish it instead of other lures.

After fishing traditional baits like a Senko and Texas-Rigged worm Matt quickly realized it was going to be a difficult day on the water. Instead of putting his head down and catching what he could, he re-geared, picked up the big baits, and committed to trying to get a BIG bite, rather than catching numbers of fish. The decision paid off immediately when Matt got his biggest bass of the day on the 3rd cast!

Below you'll find links to the swimbaits Matt was throwing, including the rigging components, as well as his swimbait setups. We've also included some of our other favorite Spring time swimbaits. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

The EASIEST Trick For SPRING Bass Fishing!

RED and ORANGE catch BIG bass in the Spring! When water temperatures reach 50 degrees you should be reaching for a red bait to catch bigger bass! Whether your lake is crystal clear or chocolate milk, bass will attack red baits as they head into the pre-spawn. It can work with chatterbaits, spinnerbaits, lipless crankbaits, squarebill crankbaits, and more!

The biggest issue with throwing these crawfish-imitating baits is knowing exactly which color to throw. Some baits are neon orange, others are transparent red. So how do you know which ones to try? It all boils down to water color and conditions. Pay close attention as Matt explains how to use each color to your advantage and when to switch between them. 

Below you'll find links to the exact baits, colors, and sizes Matt discussed in the video. We've also included links to some of our favorite gear for fishing these different baits. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each lure.
