Finesse Swimbait Tricks! Heads, Colors, Actions! **Underwater Footage**

Not all swimbaits are created equal! Today we're comparing how different swimbaits move in the water. We're looking at how different head styles impact action, and when each swimbait's movement style will help you catch more fish! 

Finesse swimbaits are awesome! They catch large numbers of fish, but they catch giants too! It wasn't long ago that there were only 2 styles of finesse swimbait on the market... today it can take up an entire row at your local shop. So what's the deal? Which baits should you be using? And does that answer change throughout the year? Let's find out!

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and heads Tim discussed in the video. We've included our favorite sizes and colors for each, as well as some of our favorite combos for fishing these lures. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Fishing Isolated Grass For Post Spawn Bass ( Florida Bass Fishing )

After the spawn a lot of anglers lose track of the bass. Here's what you need to know! Some fish stay shallow around cover to recuperate from the spawn while others go out to deep water. The fish heading to deep water typically don't go far, back out to the first break or first piece of offshore cover. Come along for a day on the water as we target these fish!

Bass typically spend several weeks recovering from the spawn before continuing on to their Summer haunts. Tim and JD landed perfectly in this window in Central Florida and were able to target those fish effectively with a variety of baits. From chatterbaits to drop shots, they probed offshore isolated grass in search of big bass on a new fishery. 

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear the guys used throughout the day as they explored the fishery. We've included the exact sizes and colors for each, along with some of key rods they relied on to get their fish in the boat. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

The Tube Fishing Trick Nobody Knows! This Really Is The Deal!!

Tubes are the forgotten lure! The Tube shouldn't just be back in your arsenal, it should be front and center as we head toward Summer! We have some key tricks that we use with tubes to take them from being a great bait, to an almost magical fish producer. You don't want to miss this!

So many anglers used to catch fish with a tube,  or tube jig, but have stopped throwing it. Most never realized the bait's true potential before slowly forgetting about it. Today we're going to fix that! Matt starts with the basics of how to catch bass with tubes but it isn't long before he gives up the key that makes a tube a better bait then nearly every other finesse presentation!

Below you'll find links to all the baits, heads, and gear Matt discussed in the video. We've included our favorite sizes and colors where applicable as well. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
