September Bass Fishing Tricks! How To Catch Bass Around Cover And In Open Water!

Jump in the boat with Tim for a fun day of bass fishing! He's on a reservoir that has great shallow cover fishing, but also has open water Spotted Bass. Watch how he develops several patterns to target these fish, putting together a great bag in a few hours of fishing.

Tim could have spent the whole day shallow targeting bass with a Karashi and Senko, but the offshore fish were too tempting. It didn't take long for him to locate fish that were anxious to eat a topwater bait over open water. This time of year can produce amazing fishing if you know where to look for these bass. Tim focused on suspended fish off the end of main lake points.

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