Bass Fishing Is Changing!! You Need To Learn These 3 Rigs!!

Don't get left behind! Bass fishing is changing faster than ever before! Over the past couple years, these 3 rigs have exploded onto the stage and are taking over bass fishing. If you're a tournament angler, you need to know how to do them. If you're a fun fisherman, it's still a really good idea to figure these "new" techniques out, and add them to your arsenal.

Every few years a fresh technique comes along and you can catch a ton of bass while it's new. Right now there are three, and you don't want to miss any of them! Free rigging will get you bit year round when fish are difficult to catch and lethargic. Mid strolling, also known as "jig and minnow", "strolling", "moping", "damiki rigging", and many other names... is revolutionizing fishing for the time being. And hover rigging is the fun fisherman's secret weapon. If you're willing to slow down with this technique, it will catch fish when literally nothing else will!

Below we've broken down our favorite components for each rig, as well as a couple rod and reel combos we use to fish them effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Chatterbait Fishing Made Easy! ( Spring Bass Fishing Tricks )

If you want to catch more bass, you need these chatterbait tips! Bladed jigs catch a ton of fish, and giant fish too! By changing trailers you can get a chatterbait to mimic shad, panfish, crawfish, and a variety of other prey species. Chatterbaits can be a deep rabbit hole but today our goal is to simplify. Let's take a look at the best baits, trailers, and gear to help you catch more fish!

The chatterbait is incredibly versatile once you learn to adapt your trailers and retrieves. We use 4 main trailers paired to 4 different chatterbaits to meet every situation we face. The chatterbait can remain a simple option in your arsenal, or you can start adapting retrieves from a high speed burn, to a popping retrieve, to a bottom hopping presentation, to take it to a whole different level! It's up to you, but either way you need to commit to the chatterbait this Spring.

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