Two Lakes In One Day! Catching Bass On Crazy Lure Colors!

Most anglers don't know these lure colors actually work! Come on the road with us as we fish new water! We're throwing baits (and colors) that the average angler overlooks. Bold colors work incredibly well in Spring, especially in stained water. Come along as we explore, adapt, and catch giant bass!

Chartreuse and Blue are two of the most underrated colors in fishing. They may not work every day on every lake, but they tend to get larger than average bites. If you've been overlooking these bold colors, you may want to second guess that decision. Today the guys were applying them in fast moving current below giant dams on the Tennessee river, and the bass (and drum) couldn't resist!

Below you'll find links to the exact baits the guys were using, including the exact sizes and colors they used. We've also included some of the rod and reel combos we used to fish these baits effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Top 5 Baits For April Bass Fishing!

The best bass fishing of the year is happening now! Don't miss it! There is no better time to get on the water and catch a bunch of fish than April. You can typically find fish in all 3 stages of the spawn and it's not hard to catch them. If you've ever wanted to learn a new technique, or target a big bass, this is the time!

Bass can be caught on a mix of fast moving reaction baits and slow, bottom contact presentations. When it comes to reaction baits, we put a lot of emphasis on standing out from the crowd. We're using baits with flash, vibration, and sound to get the bass' attention. When it comes to soft baits, its all about a natural presentation. We find that baits with a some blue in them will often catch more fish than other colors.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits Matt discussed in the video, including our favorite sizes and colors. We've also included some of the gear we use to fish these baits effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Where Do Bass Go In Spring? ( And How To Catch Them )

Ready to catch more bass?! Spring fishing is here and bass are on the move! Today we're explaining why the bass are transitioning and how to predict their movements in your local lake. Let us help you get ahead of them so you aren't one of the guys who's struggling during the prespawn. We'll show you where the bass are headed so you can get there first and catch them as they arrive!

Before the spawn, bass are focused on feeding. As they transition from Winter haunts to Spring spawning grounds, there are key stops they make along the way. These stops are slightly different on reservoirs, lakes, and ponds. In today's video, Tim breaks different types of fisheries into 4 groups and explains how bass move in each scenario. Once you've identified which group your local lake, pond, or river fits into, you're ready to fish!

Tim relies heavily on reaction baits to quickly locate and catch Spring bass. Below you'll find links to our favorite baits, including our favorite sizes, colors, and trailers. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Spring Bass Fishing Is Awesome! (Catching Them On Everything In The Boat!)

The guys are going fishing and they're taking you along for the ride! Spring bass fishing is all about adapting to changing conditions. Watch as the guys catch fish on deep diving crankbaits and square bills, underspins and spinnerbaits, and do it while wearing down jackets to start, and shorts by the end of the day! If you're not ready to adapt, you might as well stay at home!

We love Spring bass fishing! These post spawn fish were aggressive and we found several viable patterns. We found fish holding on current seams and pinch points, as well as moved up on flooded flats. Because of the changing conditions we threw almost every bait we had in the boat!

Below you'll find links to the exact baits, rods, and reels the guys used throughout the day. We've included the exact sizes, colors, and trailers where applicable. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions.
