3 Winter Power Fishing Tricks That Change Everything!!

Forget what you think you know about bass fishing! You can still power fish all Winter long! Burner reels and fast moving baits have a place in 40 degree water and we're going to show you how we do it!

There is certainly a time to downsize and slow down in Winter, as outlined by Tim in his recent finesse fishing video. But there is also a time to speed up, to go bigger, to go bolder, and to force fish to bite. This "triggering" method we use is incredibly effective and works even when water temperatures are in the 30's! 

Below you'll find links to all the gear, including our new Tactical Mini Flex Rig! All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

A-Rig Tricks For Winter Bass: Full Rigging + Modifications (Beginner To Advanced)

The Alabama Rig is here to stay! Its ability to catch bass in Winter across all conditions is virtually unrivaled. If you're still not fishing one, you're making a mistake. If you are fishing one, you could probably be catching more fish with some simple adjustments. Here are the tricks we use to catch more fish on the A Rig throughout the cold water months. 

The A-Rig is unique amongst lures because it has to be assembled by the angler. This simple difference leaves room for error and even more room for fine tuning. Understanding how many baits you should use, which wire sizes work best, when to use blades, and when to try different baits, are all factors that can take you from catching the occasional fish to having incredible days on the water! Matt isn't holding back in today's video so pay close attention as he builds out a rig and gives up the details on how he catches fish. 

Below you'll find links to the exact rigs, components, baits, and gear that Matt discussed in the video. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item. We've also included some budget-minded alternatives to give a leg up to the anglers just getting started and for those that are on a budget.
