Two Lakes In One Day! Catching Bass On Crazy Lure Colors!

Most anglers don't know these lure colors actually work! Come on the road with us as we fish new water! We're throwing baits (and colors) that the average angler overlooks. Bold colors work incredibly well in Spring, especially in stained water. Come along as we explore, adapt, and catch giant bass!

Chartreuse and Blue are two of the most underrated colors in fishing. They may not work every day on every lake, but they tend to get larger than average bites. If you've been overlooking these bold colors, you may want to second guess that decision. Today the guys were applying them in fast moving current below giant dams on the Tennessee river, and the bass (and drum) couldn't resist!

Below you'll find links to the exact baits the guys were using, including the exact sizes and colors they used. We've also included some of the rod and reel combos we used to fish these baits effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Lipless Crankbait Tricks + Blade Bait Tips For Spring Bass Fishing!

These two baits catch TONS of BIG Bass in Spring! The lipless crankbait is a staple in most angler's Spring bass fishing arsenal, but very few understand the late season effectiveness of the blade bait. Both options can produce incredible results in Spring and you should fish them with confidence!

Today we're heading down the rabbit hole of lipless and blade baits. Tim begins with a surface level approach, recommending a couple baits for all-around success, but it doesn't take long before we're looking at niche baits, detailed color analysis, and in-depth descriptions of how big bass stage in Spring.
