Decoding Bass Behavior: Summertime Struggles And Solutions
Summer Bass Fishing can be fun! Forget the struggle with these key tips! From where bass are positioning, to key bite windows, Tim breaks down what you need to know to overcome the peak heat of Summer. Don't let the temperatures get you down, it's time to adapt and catch more fish!
For most of the Summer we've focused on how to catch bigger bass. Today, Tim is focused on making sure everyone is catching fish, regardless of size. Summer heat is real and its impact is tangible. He's got advice to help you locate fish on deep structure, and when to target them. If it were all to be summarized into one line it would be, "Find The Bait, Find The Bass."
Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear Tim discussed throughout the video. We've included our favorite sizes and colors for each, as well as some great budget combos to fish these baits effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
