Lipless Crankbaits: Year Round Tips To Catch Bigger Bass!

Lipless crankbaits are awesome fish catchers! Most bass fishing anglers use them as a seasonal bait but the lipless crankbait can be fished all year long. This video is going to explain more about lipless cranks than you even knew existed! 

In this video we break down two very different approaches to fishing lipless cranks. The slow, methodical approach can produce GIANT bites while the fast-burning approach covers water and locates aggressive fish. Both methods have a time and place so its important to master both.

Swimbait Box Tour | Which Swimbaits Really Catch Fish?

Want to see inside our SWIMBAIT boxes? Wondering what baits we're really throwing? Take a tour of Matt's soft swimbaits and even a few glide baits in this tour. If you enjoy this video we'll do another soon!

The trouble with the internet is everyone has an opinion. Some anglers are highly educated, others just talk a good game. From behind a screen its very difficult to tell who is who, leading to a great deal of confusion. In this video we show the baits that have been devoured by bass over the years so you know you're getting real information that you can trust as you begin building confidence in swimbaits. 

What are your favorite swimbaits? This is just the tip of the iceberg so let us know if you enjoyed this video and we'll take a look inside more of the swimbait, glidebait, and wakebait boxes in the future.

Easy Hook Removal For Gullet and Gut Hooked Fish

Have you gut hooked a fish? Here is the fastest and safest way to remove the hook without injuring the fish. All you need is a pair of needle nose pliers and a little education and you'll be able to save every fish you catch. 

The method is simple. You simply need to reach the hook with needle nose pliers via the gill plate and rotate it until the hook is pointing down the throat toward the stomach. Now reach in through the mouth and gently pull the hook free.

Fishing With A Piece Of Bass Fishing History !!!

Matt gambled everything for the chance to fish with a real piece of bass fishing history and it was amazing!!! Check this out! What an honor!! 

Do you enjoy flipping, pitching, or fishing heavy cover for bass? Have you ever wondered why until recently all major tournaments had an 8 foot rod rule? Have you ever heard the name, Dee Thomas? If you haven't, you're missing a huge piece of bass fishing history!!

Dee Thomas is the godfather of Flipping. He developed a method called "Tullie Dipping" and later, the first flippin' sticks. He was inducted into the National Freshwater Fishing Hall Of Fame in 2000 and later the  Bass Fishing Hall Of Fame for his contributions to the sport. Its such an honor to catch a fish with a real piece of bass fishing history that was once used by Dee Thomas!

While dipping sticks are generally a thing of the past, flipping is alive and well! We've recently done several videos, here is a link to our video "Flipping and Pitching Heavy Cover: Everything You Need To Know" -  https://youtu.be/gU1uGAVyfAI
