Matt's Two-Bait Trick To Catch Big Bass In Fall!

Matt catches a GIANT BASS while exploring a new lake! Come along for an awesome day of Fall bass fishing! Matt didn't know what to expect as he started the day targeting quality Largemouth, but after making a run to the open water, he discovered an amazing Smallmouth bite as well!

The Fall is an amazing time to be on the water. As temperatures drop, fish begin feeding heavily. During this window, any cast can connect you with the fish of a lifetime. Today, Matt used a combination of a Duo Realis Spinbait 80, and a Megabass Vision 110 Jerkbait, to target big bass.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits, gear, and terminal tackle. We've included the exact rods and reels, as well as any upgrades Matt made to the baits. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

How To Catch Fish In ANY Conditions! (Crazy Spring Weather Won't Stop Us)

Come along as we explore a brand new lake! Matt is out on the road and has picked a new lake to fish. The conditions are brutal, with high winds and rain approaching, but that won’t stop him from fishing! Watch how he eliminates water, builds two unique patterns, and catches a bunch of fish!

Today was all about fishing the backwaters. Matt searched out backwater canals, ponds, flooded flats, and anywhere else he could find that was protected from the wind! He started the day off with the frog, and caught a bunch of quality fish. Once the conditions began to degrade, he had to resort to subsurface presentations to keep getting bites. Next time you’re on the water and the conditions aren’t ideal, just remember that you can adapt and overcome!

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

Dropshot Fishing For Summer Bass! (Swimbait And Topwater Bites Too)

Come along for an awesome Summer day on the water! We're catching fish on swimbaits and topwater, but the real fish catcher today is the dropshot. When finesse is what the fish want, you hunker down and catch them with it! Watch Tim and Wes adapt to changing conditions and dial in an awesome pattern!

Some of the fish are active and willing to chase, but many are holding tight to cover. Once we realize these fish don't want to leave the comfort of their grass beds, we really start to catch them! The Dropshot is a very effective technique, especially when adapted for fishing around cover. 

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear we used throughout the video. We've even included the exact colors for each. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
