How To Catch Bass In Cold Water! (Everything You Need To Know)
Cold water fishing is a challenge, this is what you need to know! With Winter setting in, it's time to adapt your fishing to the changing temperatures. Don't rely on the same baits and locations you used in Fall and expect to continue catching quality fish. Winter is all about triggering bass into biting, and these quick tips will help you do it!
The difference between catching a few bass, and consistently catching giant bass, is in the details. Understanding the difference between waiting on a bass to bite, and triggering a bass into biting, will change your Winter fishing forever. The anglers that succeed in Winter understand how to apply a handful of baits to their fishing that create feeding opportunities.
Below you'll find links to all the baits discussed in the video. We've included the exact sizes, colors, and any other pertinent information. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
