30 LB SMALLMOUTH LIMIT!! 4 BAITS CATCH THESE GIANT BASS!

Come along for an INSANE day of Smallmouth Fishing! Tim is on the water targeting giant Smallmouth and the bite is on! He doesn't know it yet, but he's about to catch 5 Smallmouth for more than 30 pounds! Today is proof that big fish don't always require big baits!

Tim has no idea what he's in for as this day begins. He's greeted with a frigid wind and seemingly difficult conditions... but before you know it he's hold a 6 lber! He's using even smaller baits than normal, with the first few giants coming on the XZone Stealth Finesse Tube. After that he finds his groove and starts loading the boat with a Dark Sleeper, Spark Shad, and hair jig. What an incredible day!

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

Finesse Tricks For Skittish Bass ( Early Fall )

Tim is fishing a new lake and the water is crystal clear! Come along for a fun day on the water as Tim uses some finesse tricks to coax these Leary late season bass into biting! From specifics on his finesse tackle, to how to extend cast range, lead fish, and more... Tim is giving up all the tips!

Today was all about finesse! Tim's primary baits were a tube and a finesse swimbait. Color was key on the tube but didn't seem important at all on the swimbait. The most important factor was reaching the fish before they detected the boat. Long casts, light line, and keeping the boat quiet were all critical factors.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear he used throughout the day. We've also included some awesome budget–friendly combos that will help you maximize distance and catch these Fall bass, even in clear water and heavily pressured situations.
