** UNDERWATER Bass Fishing ** Spring Fishing Tips and Spawning Bass!

Come underwater and watch bass behavior for yourself! Forget what you think you know and watch what's actually happening below the surface! From how fish interact with lures, to what triggers a bite, there is so much to gain from studying underwater footage. 

Today's underwater footage is geared toward the spawn. Some of these fish were actively defending spawning areas while others were just aggressively feeding on camera. Notice the different lures and colors, but pay special attention to what movements trigger each fish to bite. 

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

Power Fishing Tips For Spring! (Spinnerbait, Swimbait, And Micro Baits)

Fishing After Spring Storms + GIANT Bonus Fish!!

Come along for an awesome day on the water! Tim is fishing after a big Spring storm and its really shaken things up. COLD Muddy water is running down all the creeks and the fish are adapting to the changing conditions. Watch as Tim breaks down the lake and starts catching nice fish quickly. 

Tim got into some really nice largemouth but the Striper stole the show!! You've got to love a GIANT bonus fish! You never know what you're going to catch so it pays to be prepared. The bulk of Tim's bass were in less than 6 feet of water, warming themselves after the cold snap. He also caught them around grass which acts like an anchor for the fish when conditions are changing. 

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and equipment he used throughout the day. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
