These 2 Baits Catch Big Bass In January! (Day On The Water With Matt)

Jump in the boat with Matt for an awesome day on the water! Matt is exploring new water today and it doesn’t take long to start getting bit! He starts out strolling and throwing a jerkbait, then pivots and finds an amazing swimbait bite!

A lot of anglers mistakenly think that Winter bass fishing is tough. Today was cold, but the fishing was incredible! Watch how Matt uses different baits to fire fish up and keep them biting. Make sure you stick around to the end because Matt breaks down the retrieve differences between traditional glide baits and the emerging category of soft glide baits.

Below you’ll find links to all the baits and gear Matt used throughout the day. We’ve included his exact colors, hook upgrades, as well as the rod and reel combos he used to fish the baits effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
