TIM'S NEW PERSONAL BEST SMALLMOUTH BASS! IT'S A GIANT!!!

Tim is about to break his personal best! Let's go!! The conditions are absolutely brutal today with cold temperatures and heavy wind. It doesn't take long for Tim to realize he needs to use every advantage possible. He turns to finesse techniques, uses his Humminbird electronics to locate fish, and slowly dissects likely locations on the lake. What could have been a tough day, changed in an instant!

Tim's message at the end of the video sums it up perfectly, "Keep Grinding It Out. You're just one cast away." This is the time of year when you can catch the biggest bass of your life. It's worth the effort, it's worth battling the elements, you never know when your turn is going to come. Again, today was one of those days where you would normally blank and go home without a fish. It took every ounce of modern electronics and modern techniques to turn these brutal conditions into a truly special day. The fish were grumpy, but Tim was able to make it happen!

Below you'll find links to all the gear Tim used throughout the day. We've included the exact colors and sizes for the baits, Tim's rod and reel combos, as well as the specifics of the electronics he used to locate fish on isolated structure.

Bass Fishing Day On The Water! BIG LARGEMOUTH In Post Frontal, Cold, Windy Conditions!

Jump in the Skeeter with Tim for a great day of fishing! He's facing post frontal, windy conditions, but that won't stop him! Watch how he starts with a plan, then adapts to the changing conditions. Between the wind, the cold, the clouds, and the constant change, he manages to catch a great limit of fish, including a great big largemouth kicker!

These are the days when our fishing skills are tested. The fish aren't cooperating with Tim's plan, but he adapts and overcomes. By switching to slower moving, smaller presentations, he's able to coax a few fish into biting. He didn't get a ton of bites, but every bite resulted in a quality fish. The Keitech and the Spark Shad were the ticket today, but that jerkbait came in clutch as well.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear Tim used throughout the day. We've included the exact bait colors, weights, etc. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

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.

Potential State Record Trout While Bass Fishing!! (Smallmouth Fishing The PNW)

Jump in the boat with Jesse Kroetch as he explores a mountain reservoir! Watch how he locates fish, builds patterns, and catches not only bass, but world class trout as well! Beautiful scenery and aggressive fish makes for an awesome adventure!

Jesse pretty much caught them on every bait he picked up. He caught them on a ned rig, a swimbait, and everywhere in between. But the key to his success was his willingness to keep moving, and his desire to locate above average fish. The next time you're on the water, don't settle for second best, and you might be surprised what happens next!

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear he fished throughout his two–day adventure. We've included the exact colors for each bait, along with some of his key rod and reel combos.
