How To Catch Bass In Winter! (Beginner To Advanced)

Do you want to catch bass this Winter? Whether you're trying it for the first time or you fish all Winter long, these tips will help you be more successful on the water. Come along for a day on the water and watch as Tim explores likely Winter areas, then sits down and gives an in-depth description of fish movements throughout the Winter months. 

Catching bass is all about understanding their movements. Tim starts out by catching a nearly 5 lb Smallmouth with no background information on this fishery. He doesn't have "secret spots" or friends telling him what do to, he's simply running the areas that bass congregate on as water temperatures drop, and it works. You can do this too! Pay close attention as he details how fish leave shallows and position on outside structures. 

Below you'll find links to the exact baits Tim threw in today's video. We've included the exact colors and weights for each. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item. You'll also find links to related Winter fishing videos if you want a better understanding of the baits we use in cold water.
