Top Baits For Post Spawn Bass Fishing (May and June)

What lures should you fish with right now? How do you catch bass after they spawn? We've got you covered! Last week we taught you how bass transition after the spawn as they shift toward their Summer haunts. Today we're taking an in–depth look out our confidence baits for this same time period. Whether you fish shallow or deep, these are the baits we trust. 

This time of year can be amazing because bass tend to congregate. When you locate them it can be fish after fish for hours! Understanding where the fish position is one piece of the puzzle, knowing which baits to fish confidently is the remaining piece. Today Tim is covering his favorite baits for post spawn bass fishing in a variety of different situations. From muddy water to clear, deep to shallow, these are the baits he uses throughout the coming months. 

Below you'll find links to the exact baits Tim discussed in the video. We've also included some of our favorite budget friendly combos for these techniques. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehousehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

WHAT WE REALLY FISH WITH! ( Matt's New Boat Tour + Real Tackle )

Come inside Matt's brand new boat! Look under the locker lids at how he stores his tackle and what he's really got tied on his rods! We know people are curious about the new Skeeter so today Matt is giving a full tour of the boat, a breakdown of why he picked the Skeeter FXR21, how he sets the layout of a new boat, and a bunch of other great tackle storage tips!

Tackle storage is complicated! Storing it at home is one thing but getting all your gear to fit in the boat or in a backpack is a whole different challenge. As Matt opens up his new boat and explains his layout pay close attention to the tackle that he carries on board the bass boat and how it differs from his smaller aluminum boat. From boat balance to bait management, there is a lot to consider when loading your boat! 

Below you'll find links to the Electronics on Matt's boat, the tackle storage solutions he uses on board, as well as his jet boat tackle storage components. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
