HUGE NEWS!! TACTICALBASSIN IS EXPANDING!!

Are you ready for even more fishing content?! Here we go!! Tim and Matt have reached out to a handful of talented anglers from the TacticalBassin Family, and invited them to film fishing videos to give you a fresh perspective as you dial in your angling! Today you get to meet Jesse Kroetch!

Matt and Tim aren't changing their video whatsoever, don't worry! The "Tactical Family" videos are IN ADDITION to the videos they're already creating. The guys understand that certain regions around the country break the seasonal norms of bass fishing and have reached out to friends in those areas to create content that will help anglers in those places stay dialed into seasonal changes, patterns, and baits.

If you enjoyed this video, keep an eye out for more Tactical Family videos in the future. And don't forget, the Holiday Buyer's Guide series starts tomorrow! Below you'll find links to all the baits and gear Jesse fished with throughout the day. All the links go to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Our Favorite Bass Fishing Trick For Big Fish! ( That No One Ever Talks About )

This is the craziest CLEAR WATER bass fishing you're ever going to see! Watch as Matt applies saltwater tactics to freshwater bass fishing as he targets monster fish on shallow flats. He's using finesse baits and light line to hook monster bass one after another!

While this style of fishing may not apply to your lake, it's something you should try to experience once in your life. Watching big Smallmouth Bass, or any other species for that matter, hunt your bait across a shallow flat, is a remarkable experience. Listen to the details as Matt explains why it's happening and what he's doing to keep the fish biting.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and equipment Matt was using. He's included the exact sizes and colors for each lure, along with the specifics for each rod and reel combo. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

RAW BASS FISHING! Serious Fish Catching And Finesse Fishing Knowledge!

Have you ever caught this many bass, this quickly?! Tim is headed out for an afternoon on the lake and he's bringing you along for the fun! It takes him no time to find some giant schools of aggressive bass and the catching ensues! Listen closely as he talks through his mindset, his approach, and the specifics of the baits he's using.

This day is all about finesse. Tim is focused on swimbaits, spy baits, hair jigs, and tubes, to keep the fish biting. Consistently cycling through baits is key to keeping the schools of fish active. They're on isolated areas in open water, specifically chunk rock and rock to sand transitions, so these fish would be easily overlooked by an angler who was simply fishing the bank.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and equipment Tim used throughout the day. From the specific colors, to the rigging components, to the rod and reel combos, we've linked it all. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
