October Bass Fishing Tips! (Day On The Water Bass Fishing A Highland Reservoir)

Jump in the boat with Tim for a day of Spotted Bass Fishing! The deck of the Skeeter FXR 21 is lined with rods and everyone one of them has a reaction bait tied on. From topwater, to underspins, to Bait Finesse, Tim is ready to target bass on this highland reservoir! It's going to be a lot of fun, let's go fishing!

This time of year we see bass ambushing baitfish around the country. This lake is no different, with Spotted Bass targeting both shad and blueback herring in open water. Tim has a variety of baits rigged up, all designed to capture the attention of these feisty spots while they're in a feeding mood. Watch closely as Tim keeps his rods ready at all times, crediting many of his bites to a quick reaction time to visible surface feeding.

Below you'll find links to all the baits Tim used in the video. We've also included links to his rod and reel combos. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
