Early Spring BFS Fishing! (Karashi, Glide Baits, And Finesse Tips)

Jump in the boat for a FUN day on the water with Matt! Today, we’re doing something completely different! Matt has set aside his traditional Spring time baits and filled his deck with BFS rods and finesse baits. He’s targeting bass that are ambushing small baitfish, let’s go!

It’s easy to get caught up in the competition and pressure of social media bass fishing. Today, we’re taking the time to just enjoy a day out fishing. It doesn’t matter how big the fish are, it just matters that you have a great time and catch a few fish along the way. Matt left the pressure behind this morning and has a blast catching 6 different species on a variety of baits!

Below you’ll find links to the exact baits and gear Matt used throughout the day. He’s included his favorite colors and any necessary rigging components, as well as the key rod and reel combos he fished throughout the day. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
