Spring Fishing Tips For Bass! ( Dropshot, Chatterbait, Glide Bait )
Spring bass fishing is awesome... if you're willing to adapt! One minute you've got a dropshot in your hand, the next minute you're slinging a glide bait. As conditions change, you have to adapt with them if you want to consistently catch fish. Come along for a fun day with Tim and the boys. Watch how they adapt to changing conditions and learn as Tim teaches them about Spring bass fishing.
The guys started out with a plan to power fish but quickly realized they had to adapt. The dropshot and shaky head saved the day until the conditions began shifting. Once the light got a little lower, the power fishing techniques came back into play, with multiple fish on chatterbaits and glide baits. Keep an open mind, be willing to adapt, and you'll take your Spring bass fishing to new heights!
Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear the guys were using. We've included the exact colors and sizes, and even the rod and reel combos. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
