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.

Bass Fishing WITHOUT Electronics! How To Read The Water And Catch Fish!

Tired of watching people stare at their electronics? We're going fishing without them, come along! Tim is on a river system and he's dialing in a pattern the old fashioned way. He's got a crankbait and an underspin, and he's catching a ton of fish!

When current is present in a waterbody, bass will always use it to their advantage. If you can understand what that looks like, you can predict how bass will position, even if you don't have any electronics. Watch as Tim power fishes his way to some GIANT Smallmouth, without any outside help. Speed cranking is the star of the show today, but it's not the only way he catches them.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear Tim used throughout the day. From exact weights and colors, to his rod and reel choices, everything is included. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

FINESSE SWIMBAIT vs SOFT JERKBAIT: Which Is Better?

Come along for an awesome day of fishing with Matt and his Dad! We're on vacation in the North to get away from the heat and the bass fishing is on fire! The fish are aggressive, and the water is clear. What more could we ask for?!
