The 4 Best Baits For Finding Bass In Spring

Spring is supposed to be easy but getting those first few fish can be tough! Matt and Tim show you the method they use to find bass quickly and efficiently so no time is wasted during your day on the water. 

The key is using baits that get bit consistently but that can also be fished very quickly through likely areas. You don't want to fish too fast and miss opportunities but you also can't afford to slowly work each location hoping to run across active fish. 

Here are Matt's Bait picks...
Deep Water Jerkbait- Staysee 90: http://bit.ly/2dBzMmz
(Try American Shad or Aurora Black)
Shallow Water Jerkbait- Jackall Rerange: http://bit.ly/2ge0qED
(Try HL Hasu or HL Silver Shad)
Rattling Squarebill- River2Sea Biggie Poppa: http://bit.ly/2ahCzvo
(Try Cold Blooded or Rooster)
Creature Bait- Strike King Game Hawg: http://bit.ly/2pfGxir

There are a lot of different ways to catch fish in Spring but the ultimate goal is to maximize your time on the water. The faster you can locate productive areas with active schools of fish, the better your overall fishing experience will be. While many baits will work, these are the baits we rely on.

Shimano Bantam MGL Casting Reel Review

Is It Worth The Money? What sets this reel apart from the rest? Tim explores the technology in the all-new Shimano Bantam MGL and puts it to the test. 


This reel lands between the Metanium MGL and Chronarch MGL on price with a retail price of $349.99 At that price there better be some serious technology to back it up. Shimano did not disappoint! This is the first low-profile bait caster to incorporate a solid frame construction. Why should that matter to you? The sensitivity is absolutely unmatched. You literally feel more bites through the reel than you will with a traditional reel. It also has micro module gearing, infinite braking, X-Ship, Hagane, and a variety of other proprietary technologies. 


When will it be available? Some gear ratios are available now, the rest are available for pre-order and will be shipping in a few weeks.
