Tricks To Catch Bass In The Wind! (Post Spawn Bass Fishing)

Fishing in the wind doesn’t have to be tough! Jump in Matt’s Skeeter, and learn the tricks to using wind to your advantage! Watch as he breaks down a brand new lake in the middle of a wind storm. Not only does he use the wind, he puts together a great limit of fish!

Exploring a new lake is rarely an easy task. Throw wind into the mix, and it can be downright tough! Matt had to pull all the stops today, but in the end he catches a BIG ONE! The fishery he’s on today has a lot of shallow vegetation so Matt used a combination of swim jig, underspin, and frogs to get key bites throughout the day.

Below you’ll find links to the exact baits and gear Matt used throughout the day. He’s also included the exact colors for each bait. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Frog Fishing For Bass! Everything You Need To Know!

Frog fishing is some of the craziest topwater action you'll ever experience! The way a bass comes through cover to ambush a frog is unlike anything else in fishing! Knowing how to get those bites however, is a skill set that many anglers lack. Today we're covering everything you need to know about fishing hollow body frogs so you can get in on the fun!

With all the frog designs on the market it's hard to understand what they're all for, let alone which ones are worth the time and effort! Some frogs have amazing action and a great hookup ratio, while others will get bit but it's hard to hook the bass. Sorting through all the different frogs is overwhelming, but we've done all the leg work so you can enjoy the results. In today's video Tim separates frogs into different categories, explains what each category is for, and shows his favorite baits for each scenario.

Below you'll find links to the exact frogs discussed in the video. We've sorted them by style, and included our favorite colors for each. We've also included our favorite frog rods and gear to help you be successful. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
