How To Catch Tough September Bass! ( On The Water Tricks For September bass Fishing )

Jump in the boat with us for a day of September Bass Fishing! Tim is on the Tennessee river, and he's targeting active fish around grass. He's using a combination of flipping, topwater, and reaction baits to catch fish. Watch how he adapts to changing conditions to catch fish throughout the day.

This time of year can be very challenging. Fish are transitioning from Summer to Fall patterns and are generally focused on eating baitfish near open water. This pattern keeps the fish moving, and requires the angler to do the same. Tim does a great job of covering water to dial in several key patterns throughout the day.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear he used throughout the day. We've included his exact bait colors, 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.

Two Baits That Catch February Bass! (During Tough Conditions)

Jump in the boat with Matt for an exciting afternoon on the water! The post-frontal morning was 19 degrees, but the afternoon bite is hot! Matt has set his sights on dam fishing the TVA and the fish are ready to feed, despite the tough conditions.

Matt chose to fish a dam today because the fast current positions the fish in predictable locations. He used two main baits (an A–Rig and a paddle tail swimbait) because of their drawing power in the fast moving water. Listen to the details about color and fish positioning as Matt catches fish one after another on what should have been a very tough day.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits Matt used throughout the afternoon. We've also included his exact rod and reel combos, as well as any upgrades he made to his gear. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Two Lakes In One Day! Catching Bass On Crazy Lure Colors!

Most anglers don't know these lure colors actually work! Come on the road with us as we fish new water! We're throwing baits (and colors) that the average angler overlooks. Bold colors work incredibly well in Spring, especially in stained water. Come along as we explore, adapt, and catch giant bass!

Chartreuse and Blue are two of the most underrated colors in fishing. They may not work every day on every lake, but they tend to get larger than average bites. If you've been overlooking these bold colors, you may want to second guess that decision. Today the guys were applying them in fast moving current below giant dams on the Tennessee river, and the bass (and drum) couldn't resist!

Below you'll find links to the exact baits the guys were using, including the exact sizes and colors they used. We've also included some of the rod and reel combos we used to fish these baits effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
