GIANT BASS WITHOUT ELECTRONICS!! ( These Overlooked Baits Work All Spring! )

Giant Bass Without Electronics! Come along for an insane day on the water! Matt dials in an incredible bite, catching multiple giant bass on a topwater frog! Enjoy the show, but also listen to the details of his mindset, how he breaks down water, and why he’s making adjustments throughout the day.

Whether you have the nicest boat, motor, and electronics, or you’re walking the bank, you can catch big bass! It’s all about the mindset you come into it with, and how much adapting you’re willing to do. Matt covered miles of shoreline with a frog, and it was worth it! Also make note of that Bomba. That unique presentation is a great way to get bit when nothing else is working!

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

The Summer Struggle Is Real! Bass Fishing Tricks For Tough Conditions!!

We're facing challenging conditions on the water today, but we're going to overcome and catch fish! Come along and see how Tim adapts to fluctuating water levels, changes in current, and the mindset that goes into adapting on the water. If bass fishing was always easy we'd never learn to adapt, but sometimes you need to understand nuances to get bit. Here are those subtle details!

Tim starts off strong, fishing grass edges and shallow vegetation. As the fishing gets tougher he moves to hard structure and moving water. Listen closely as he explains how he's positioning, what the fish are doing, and the subtle changes that help him catch fish.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear Tim used throughout the day. We've included the exact colors, hooks, and any relevant details. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
