How To Catch Tough September Bass! ( On The Water Tricks For September bass Fishing )

Jump in the boat with us for a day of September Bass Fishing! Tim is on the Tennessee river, and he's targeting active fish around grass. He's using a combination of flipping, topwater, and reaction baits to catch fish. Watch how he adapts to changing conditions to catch fish throughout the day.

This time of year can be very challenging. Fish are transitioning from Summer to Fall patterns and are generally focused on eating baitfish near open water. This pattern keeps the fish moving, and requires the angler to do the same. Tim does a great job of covering water to dial in several key patterns throughout the day.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear he used throughout the day. We've included his exact bait colors, 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.

Top 5 Baits For September Bass Fishing!

These are the baits we trust to catch bass in September! Bass are transitioning to Fall patterns and actively feeding on baitfish. If you're not paying attention, the fish can disappear so it's important that you rely on baits that can cover water quickly.Throw these baits with confidence and you'll catch fish all month long!

September can be amazing fishing! When you get around schooling fish the bite is like nothing else! Topwater, crankbaits, and swimbaits, are all viable options. We spend very little time finesse fishing in September. We rely on fast moving, power fishing techniques to get consistent bites. The best part about September is that as you build patterns toward the end of the month, those patterns are likely to last all the way through the Fall and early Winter.

Below you'll find links to the baits Tim discussed in the video. We've included our favorite sizes and colors for each lure so you can fish them with confidence. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

How To Find BIG Bass In A New Lake! ( Summer Edition )

We're exploring a new lake during the hottest part of the year, jump in the boat as we figure it out! Matt uses a combination of new fishing (Urchins and Minnows), traditional fishing (Jigs And Worms), and BFS Fishing (Karashi, and Micro Glide Baits) to dial in a new lake. Let's go fishing!

Going in to the day Matt's plan was to split his time between shallow and deep. As it turns out, that plan was spot on. He caught fish from the surface out to 40+ feet of water. While the largest bass of the day came from 25' of water on the edge of a grass line, the majority of his bites were in less than 10' of water around cover, including a bunch of topwater bites.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear Matt used throughout the day. We've included his exact colors, terminal tackle, as well as some of his key rod and reel combos. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
