Underwater Bass Fishing! (How To Catch Bass With Artificial Lures)
Come underwater with us and learn about bass fishing! Let's study bass behavior and learn about different lures at the same time. Watch how bass react to a dropshot, ned rig, texas rig, and jig. These are the details you need to know to catch more fish!
We learn a ton about bass behavior when we go underwater, but we also learn about the lures we're using. Pay close attention to Matt's tips on bait rigging, lure selection, and bait color. Also, you'll notice in the underwater shots that no two baits are created equal so focus your attention on baits with neutral buoyancy and consistent action.
Below you'll find links to the baits featured in the video. We've included our best colors, our preferred rigging components, as well as some great budget–friendly rod and reel combos. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
