The Tube Fishing Trick Nobody Knows! This Really Is The Deal!!

Tubes are the forgotten lure! The Tube shouldn't just be back in your arsenal, it should be front and center as we head toward Summer! We have some key tricks that we use with tubes to take them from being a great bait, to an almost magical fish producer. You don't want to miss this!

So many anglers used to catch fish with a tube,  or tube jig, but have stopped throwing it. Most never realized the bait's true potential before slowly forgetting about it. Today we're going to fix that! Matt starts with the basics of how to catch bass with tubes but it isn't long before he gives up the key that makes a tube a better bait then nearly every other finesse presentation!

Below you'll find links to all the baits, heads, and gear Matt discussed in the video. We've included our favorite sizes and colors where applicable as well. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Post Spawn Transition – Shakey Head Worms And Crankbaits!

This time of year is awesome! Let's catch some fish!! There are bass in all phases of the spawn but in most places, there are some post spawners already transitioning into Summer patterns. We're getting ahead of those fish and targeting them with worms and crankbaits. Let's go!!

Today is a relaxed day as we get ahead of the transition and catch bass that are shifting toward Summer patterns. We're catching them on offshore structure (rock piles and points) with a shaky head, dropshot, and texas rig. Color is key, and paying attention for those subtle bites can completely change the course of your day!
