Chatterbait and Topwater! Exploring New Lake During ICAST!
Forget the show, we're going fishing!! ICAST is awesome but you've already seen enough coverage of the new baits and gear... its time to catch some bass! We're exploring the Orlando area and sticking a ton of fish on a chatterbait, frog, and whopper plopper! Come along as we break down a new fishery and adapt to changing conditions before a big thunderstorm rolls in.
Florida isn't known for the greatest Summer fishing... but it should be! Sure its hot... really hot... but the bass don't seem to care. You can catch them offshore or right up on the bank, it just depends on your style. Today we started offshore and while we caught fish, they weren't the right size. We moved up shallow into backwater canals and shallow coves and immediately started getting quality bites.
Below you'll find links to all the baits we were throwing. We've included the exact models, colors, and sizes for each lure. We've also included the trailers where applicable, and some of our favorite rod and reel combos from the day. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
