This Is What Winter Fishing Is All About! Big Bass And Good Fun!

Come along for an awesome day on the water with the Tactical Crew! The air temps are 16 degrees at the boat ramp but that won't stop the guys from catching fish! Tim starts the day off solo and dials in a great pattern, fishing flats near moving water. When Matt arrives the duo steps it up and catches some really nice fish!

We talk a lot about how fun Winter bass fishing can be. This is such a great example! The air is cold, but the boat is full of laughs and big fish. Don't be afraid to fish when the weather dips below freezing. It's all about layering up with the right clothing to be comfortable so that you're focused on fish catching instead of the temperature.

Below you'll find links to all the baits the guys were throwing today. We've included the exact sizes, colors, as well as the rod and reel combos they were using. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Winter Jerkbait Fishing! (All The Tricks)

Jerkbait Fishing Is Easy... If you Know The Tricks! Winter brings a new set of challenges to Jerkbait fishing and you need to adapt if you're going to be successful. Slowing down and paying attention to your cadence becomes critical, as does the baits you choose to throw. Not all baits are created equal!

The key to cold water jerkbait fishing is cadence. Taking the time to let your bait sit still in the water is how you'll draw fish up, but it requires the right baits to be able to do that. Neutrally buoyant baits that can dive near the bottom, without sinking or rising on the pause are what you're looking for. After that, it comes down to color selection.

Below you'll find links to our favorite baits for this time of year. We've included our favorite colors for each, some of our favorite hook upgrades, modifications, as well as the rods and reels we rely on to fish jerkbait effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

3 Winter Bass Fishing Tricks You Need To Know!

Winter bass fishing can be tough, these tricks will help! From subtle color adjustments, to what time of day to be fishing, these are the real difference makers that anglers try to keep quiet. Here's what you need to know to be successful!

Bass behave differently in Winter. While we would expect to find them in the warmest water, they're often hunting on the deeper, darker edges where they can use light to their advantage. Lure speed, lure color, and a few other retrieve tricks are also huge factors! If you want to be successful all Winter, it's time to pay attention to the subtle details.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear Matt discussed in the video. He's included his favorite sizes and colors for each lure, as well as some great rod and reel options for fishing them effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
