Fishing Tricks When Its HOT Outside! (Its Easy!!!)
The weather is hot, and so is the bite! Come along for an awesome afternoon of fishing for bass on the Tennessee River! Matt is targeting fish with a variety of baits, and sharing his knowledge about fish behavior along the way. If you want to catch more fish this Summer, pay attention to the details he shares today!
Summer fishing is all about understanding the balance between a bass' need to eat, and its struggle with warm water and low oxygen. If you understand how this impacts fish and where they position, you can have incredible fishing in the Summer! Today it took Matt 3 casts to catch a giant... it really is that easy!
Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear Matt used throughout the day. We've included his exact colors, as well as the rod and reel combos he relied on to land his fish. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
