Matt's NEW PB! Didn't Expect This Fish To Bite!

Matt has no idea he's about to catch his PB! You just never know what's going to bite when you're out on the lake! Come along for a fun day of bass fishing full of all sorts of other random species catches as well! The transition from Fall to Winter is a great time to be on the water!

This would have been a really fun day of bass fishing but it got even better when a giant Walleye decided to make an appearance on the first stop of the morning! Too much fun! Today was unseasonably warm so Matt was able to power fish all day long. He caught fish on the Alabama Rig and several different underspins. The key to his success today was retrieve speed. As the temperatures rose, so did the fish's desire to chase the baits. 

Below you'll find links to the exact baits Matt used throughout the day. We've also included links to the rods and equipment he was using to catch these fish. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Small Creek Kayak Fishing! ( Tennessee Musky Fishing )

We're fishing a tiny creek for big fish! Come along for the excitement as we work our way upstream through chutes and shallows to target giant apex predator fish in this tiny fishery. Throwing giant swimbaits in a tiny creek, does it get any better? Matt hasn't been this excited to go fishing in a while!

Today we're on a musky mission! Matt has been chasing them non-stop this Fall and today we've got great conditions for a big bite. Chasing these fish takes swimbait fishing to the next level! Watch as he picks the water apart with some of his confidence baits in the pursuit of musky on bass lures. In the end, he's successful in landing a quality musky on a glide bait!

How To Lose A 10 Lber In The Cold 😳😂 Late Fall Bass Fishing Fail!

Sometimes the fish win! Unfortunately its usually the really big ones that do! We work really hard to put the odds in our favor but its still fishing, and sometimes things go wrong. Come along for a crazy day on Lake Chickamauga! Air temps in the 40's but the bass are up shallow and willing to eat!

Could the pattern get any stranger? Half the bites coming on an Alabama Rig, the other half on a frog. We're not sure why, but we're not arguing either! Tim got a shot at a true Chickamauga GIANT bass but she had other plans. If you quit fishing in the Fall because its getting cold, these are the days you're missing! Get back out there!

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear we used throughout the day. We've included the exact colors and sizes as well. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Underspin And Screw Head Tricks For Bass Fishing!

The underspin is a lure every bass fisherman should own! When bass are chasing smaller baitfish, an underspin paired with a swimbait outfishes virtually every other lure. Today we're showing you the differences between these heads, and when you should be fishing each style. 

With all the different swimbaits and underspins on the market, how do you know which models to use? Matt breaks them down into categories and gives you the best of the best for each situation. By the time you reach the end of this video you'll know exactly when to reach for a full size option, or when the little 2.8 keitech is your best bet.
