How To Catch BIG BASS In Spring! ( It's Not Random And You Can Catch Them )

Spring is Big Bass Season, but only for select anglers. If you want to catch bigger bass this year, you need to understand that its not random and you need to fish with intention. Today Tim explains exactly what motivates big bass in Spring. He explains their movements, what they eat, and how factors like water temperature, visibility, and weather patterns, can impact them. He also shares the key baits that will help you begin targeting these big bass!

A few days ago Matt gave us an in–depth video on building patterns to target quality fish. There is a distinct mindset difference between catching more fish, and catching bigger fish. If you've struggled to catch bigger fish in Spring, you aren't alone. This time of year presents an amazing opportunity to target the biggest fish in the lake, but not everyone knows how to do it. When the same anglers continually catch big bass, it's not random, and it's not by accident. Listen closely to Tim's tips about how fish are positioning, then focus all your attention on baits that specifically target big bass.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear discussed in the video. We've included our favorite sizes and colors for each, as well as some great budget–friendly gear that will help you fish effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
