This Shallow Water Trick Catches GIANT Bass! (2 Bass For Over 20 lbs!!!) šŸ˜Ž

We're heading shallow! Come along as we search the shallows for bass that are making early moves toward the prespawn. SPOILER ALERT: IT WORKS!!! You're about to witness a beat down as we catch bass after bass, up to 11 lbs!!! This time of year can produce giants if you're willing to pursue them!

So many anglers forget to adapt with the seasons. We're constantly pushing the envelope and searching for fish that are moving ahead of the norm. In this case, it involved moving shallow despite cool conditions. It payed off in a huge way! We started off catching big bass with squarebills and paddle tail swimbaits, then ended it with GIANT BASS on chatterbaits! 

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

Exploring A New Lake! (Bass Fishing In A Swamp)

Come along for a day of bass fishing in a swamp! We're out on the road exploring new lakes and we've found ourselves in the middle of a Southern cypress swamp. Watch as we break down this diverse fishery and catch bass amongst its endless grass lines and fields of standing timber! 

Its rare to see Tim and Matt slow down and fish with plastics. Today is very much a traditional bass fishing day as the duo do all their damage with plastic worms. While they got bit on a handful of reaction baits, Matt caught his fish with a big curly tail worm and Tim found success with a shaky head. 

Below you'll find links to the exact baits the guys were fishing, as well as the rods and reels they were using to present them effectively. We've also included their terminal tackle, bait colors, and any other pertinent information.

The Best Way To Catch Bigger Bass Right Now!!

Spring is on the horizon and bass are shifting toward the prespawn. During this period there is one simple trick you can take advantage of to catch more and bigger fish! Focus your attention on red (and orange) lures! From chatterbaits to crankbaits, spinnerbaits to jigs, these bold crawfish imitators should be a staple in your fishing arsenal!

The color red is the biggest trick in Spring bass fishing. If you're on a clear water lake, focus on a ghost red. If your water is recently turned muddy, focus on the bright reds and oranges. If your fish don't want to chase, add some red to your jig. Its remarkable the difference that this one little trick can make! We catch a TON of fish on red in the next 4-8 weeks and we don't want you to miss out!

Below you'll find links to some of our favorite baits to throw in red patterns. We've included the exact color names for each bait, as well as a couple of the rod and reel combos we use to fish them.
