Fishing Isolated Grass For Post Spawn Bass ( Florida Bass Fishing )

After the spawn a lot of anglers lose track of the bass. Here's what you need to know! Some fish stay shallow around cover to recuperate from the spawn while others go out to deep water. The fish heading to deep water typically don't go far, back out to the first break or first piece of offshore cover. Come along for a day on the water as we target these fish!

Bass typically spend several weeks recovering from the spawn before continuing on to their Summer haunts. Tim and JD landed perfectly in this window in Central Florida and were able to target those fish effectively with a variety of baits. From chatterbaits to drop shots, they probed offshore isolated grass in search of big bass on a new fishery. 

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear the guys used throughout the day as they explored the fishery. We've included the exact sizes and colors for each, along with some of key rods they relied on to get their fish in the boat. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Dropshot Tricks To Catch Fish On HOT Summer Days!

This isn't your typical dropshot fishing! We're talking flipping, pitching, punching, and dock fishing, with a dropshot! This rig is so adaptable for different Summer fishing conditions and today we're showing you how its done. From small nose hook baits, to big worms and baitfish profiles, Tim is sharing all the tricks!

The traditional dropshot rig always catches fish! Today we're taking it a step further. For some reason, most anglers don't consider the power fishing applications of the dropshot. If you've got heavy cover, grass, or docks in your lake, this is for you! Listen as Tim describes different fishing situations and if one fits the lakes you fish, give it a try the next time you hit the water. 

Below you'll find links to the exact baits discussed in the video. We've included our favorite colors for each, along with the hooks, weights, and equipment we use to fish them. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
