These Crankbaits Keep Catching Fish From Summer To Fall!

This is crankbait time! Here's what you need to know! Tim is breaking down the best baits for Summer Bass Fishing, as well as the baits that will carry over into Fall. Bass love to ambush their prey, and these baits trigger that feed response, no matter how deep your fish are. From extra deep, to dirt shallow, these are the baits we count on when its HOT outside!

If you're not fishing crankbaits during Summer and early Fall, you're missing some of the easiest fish catches of the year. Bass are targeting baitfish from deep to shallow. Covering water with a crankbait is an easy way to catch them. Focus your attention on baitfish colors and bold reaction colors for the best success.

Don't Make This Summer Mistake! (Everyone Overlooks This Spot)

Start catching fish while everyone else overlooks this spot! As we approach the middle of Summer, fish get harder to catch. If you're fishing the same techniques in the same places, you're probably starting to struggle. But there is something simple you can do to start catching fish again right now!

It's time to get away from the bank! Forget the shoreline you fish every day and start focusing your attention on submerged vegetation and color lines. Weed lines and weed edges are the EASIEST place to catch fish in your lake and almost no one is targeting them!

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear we use when targeting bass this time of year. We've included our favorite sizes and colors for each lure to make it as simple as possible for you.
