4 Fishing Mistakes We All Make! ( And How To Change Them )

Don't be the guy who misses his shot at a big bass this year! These mistakes are costing you fish! If you change these habits you'll begin catching more fish right away. Subtle details make a huge difference, especially around shallow water. Bass are coming up from deeper water and they're leery of the shallows. Make these adjustments and see the difference for yourself.

From accidentally slamming locker lids to choosing the wrong lure, we all make mistakes in the Spring. This video is about learning better ways to operate so you can begin catching more fish on your next trip. Matt highlights the negatives, then provides a solution for each, and even includes some baits that will help you along the way.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear he discussed in the video. We've included favorite colors, sizes, and rigging for each. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

These Tricks Are Why Some Anglers Catch ALL The BIG BASS In Spring! (Spring Sight Fishing)

The truth is, most anglers are terrible at sight fishing! If you aren't paying attention to subtle details, you're almost wasting your time trying to sight fish in Spring. Pay attention to these tricks because they make all the difference! Whether you're bed fishing or sight fishing on flats, how you position, dress, and behave, has a huge impact before you even make a cast!

Most anglers just go down the bank without a care in the world, and it shows. Those anglers that pay attention to details, to boat positioning, and to their lures, catch more and bigger bass every Spring. This year you need to pay attention to how you dress, how quickly you move, and which baits you present first to bass in shallow water. If you want to catch a BIG bass this year, this is your chance!

Spring Bass Fishing Is Awesome! Exploring Lake Guntersville!

Today we're dropping the boat into Lake Guntersville and going exploring! The guys have no clue what to expect, what the bass are doing, or where to begin. But it doesn't take them long to start putting the pieces together! Watch as they figure out a pattern, and get big fish to bite!

Guntersville is one of the most famous fisheries in the world, but that doesn't mean the bite is going to be easy. The guys weren't sure where to start, so they tied on their confidence baits and started looking for that first bite. Every fish that bit provided a clue that let them put together the puzzle. By midday they caught a great limit, with a big kicker, and left an even bigger one behind!

Below you'll find links to all the baits the guys used throughout the day, as well as the gear they used to fish them effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
