We're Going Where?! Chatterbait Fishing For BackWater Bass!
Today we're exploring a crazy backwater! Everyone else is driving airboats but we're determined to stuff our bass boat down the tiny swamp paths, through Lily pad fields, and into untouched waters! We have no idea what we're in for at the start but by the end of the day we put together a great pattern throwing chatterbaits for prespawn bass. Come along!
So many anglers fish the same fisheries over and over. There is nothing wrong with that but if the opportunity to explore ever presents itself, jump at the opportunity! On a recent trip Matt and CC were poking around a few backwater areas and found a tiny path that connected to an area they wanted to explore. Next thing you know they're driving down tiny ditches, plowing through airboat paths, getting stuck, overheating, and catching fish!
The duo were using a variety of baits to build a pattern but once they pieced it together it was just a couple baits that did all the damage. Below you'll find links to the exact baits, colors, and the gear they were using while exploring this incredible area. All of the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
