You Don't Understand How To Use These 3 Baits! (But The Competition Does)

Don't miss your chance to catch a BIG bass this Summer! These 3 baits all produce big bites this time of year, and you probably don't understand why. Each bait draws a different reaction strike from the fish, and when you learn to harness their power, you will catch bigger fish! Don't let another Summer pass you by without taking advantage of these key presentations!

The Burrito is a special swimbait. Its unique profile and vibration elicits a feed response from Summer bass unlike any other swimbait we've found. It's not much to look at, but the fish can't resist! The flutter spoon has a combination of flash, reaction, and random motion that drives fish wild! And finally, we have the hair jig. The hair jig creates a perfect "cat and mouse" game, that fish can't help but chase. The combination of ripping away from them, then falling back to bottom, is more than most big bass can handle.

Below you'll find links to all the baits discussed in the video. We've included our favorite sizes and colors for each, along with the rod and reel combos we use to fish them effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Bass Fishing Vacation! Big Baits vs Finesse Baits On New Lakes

We're on vacation and the fishing is on fire! We're chasing big smallmouth and they're eating swimbaits! From tiny little finesse baits to larger swimbaits, the bite is rocking! Come along for a relaxed evening on the water as we lean back on the Smallies and enjoy some fun fishing!

This may just be a fun afternoon session for Matt but pay close attention to the details he drops while fishing. He's talking about targeting bigger fish on any natural lake in the country, then opens up about how to choose the best bait for the situation, even if you don't know anything about the lake you're on. There is key information sprinkled throughout this fishing session. And let's not overlook that in the North, fishing clear water, Matt opted to throw the bigger swimbaits and it worked!

Below you'll find links to the exact baits the guys were using. We've included the exact sizes and colors for each, along with the key rods and reels they used to successfully catch these fish, even on the lightest lines. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
