Targeting Bass With Summer Swimbaits! (Big And Small)

The bass are big and the bite is on fire! Let's go fishing!! Come along with us for a fun day on the water as we explore a new lake! It doesn't take long to find out there are both Largemouth and Smallmouth in this lake, and things really take a turn when Matt figures out they'll eat the Magdraft Swimbait!

It's always a challenge to find fish in a new lake. Step one is to fish likely locations, step two is to build a pattern, step three is to repeat. On this day it doesn't take long to find some aggressive Smallmouth, but thankfully Matt and CC didn't settled there and kept hunting, because the story of this lake is quality largemouth!

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear we used throughout the day. From the baits, to the colors, to the map card we're using to find the points, we've linked it, to help you fish with confidence on your location fisheries.

Power Fishing VS Finesse Fishing: Finding Bass In A New Lake!

Come along for an awesome day on the water! Matt, Tim, and JD are exploring a new lake and they're taking you along for the fun! Watch as they find two distinct patterns... one with a big swimbait, and the other with small finesse baits. Both options prove to be very effective as they cover water in search of quality bass in this new lake!

Breaking down new water can be overwhelming. It's hard to know where to start or what to throw. Today the guys came out with a plan; cover as much water as possible! With this approach in mind they tied on everything from a swimbait, to a chatterbait, to a spy bait. It didn't take long to start getting bit and before long, they'd developed a wide open pattern for catching quality largemouth!

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear the guys used throughout the day. We included details on bait sizes and colors, hook upgrades, as well as the rod and reel combos they used to fish the baits effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Wakebait Fishing For Bass! (Everything You Need To Know)

BIG Wakebaits Catch BIG Bass! Today We're going to show you how to fish them! From the basics of retrieves and lure shapes, to advanced details on bait design, we're breaking down all the details of fishing with big topwater for bass. Whether you like to throw a lipped Wake, a multi joint, a rat, or giant walking bait, these are the details you need to know!

Very few baits are capable of catching bass in both Summer and Winter, around cover or open water, which makes it even more amazing that wakebaits are largely overlooked by many anglers. It's time for that to change! Let's start with a look at the River2Sea Tactical Wake 210, but we won't stop there. Next we're looking at stand out baits from around the industry.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and equipment Matt discussed in the video. He's also included his favorite rod and reel combos for fishing these baits effectively, along with his favorite hook upgrades. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
