5 Finesse Tricks For Cold Winter Fishing!
These finesse tricks can save your day! If you're struggling to get bit, don't be stubborn. Finesse can turn a tough day around, especially if you're faced with poor weather conditions. Tim has a few key finesse baits he turns to when the going gets tough and today he's giving you the details.
When it's working, there's nothing better than power fishing in Winter. Unfortunately, it's not always working. When that happens, it's time to finesse. Tim reaches for a handful of rods when the going gets tough and he's very specific about each option. From his football jig to his ned rig, there are subtle nuances that Tim believes give him an upper hand.
Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear discussed in the video. We've also links some of our favorite budget friendly rod and reel combos for these techniques. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
