3 FINESSE TRICKS TO CATCH BASS RIGHT NOW!

Struggling to catch fish? These tricks will help! These finesse baits will get you bites when nothing else is working! Bass are aggressive this time of year in most lakes, but if you're having a hard time, it's probably time to downsize. From craws, to swimbaits, to worms, these are the tricks we rely on to keep catching fish!

We love to throw big baits for big fish but there is also a time to downsize. Small baits can catch BIG bass, especially as we head into Summer. If things get tough, we like to focus on small profile baits to show bass something they're not used to seeing. It's amazing how quickly you can turn a day on the water around by simply going to a smaller presentation!

Below you'll find links to some of Tim's key confidence baits. We've included favorite colors, the rigging components, and even included some great budget friendly rod and reel combos to fish them effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
