Targeting Bigger Bass In Late Summer! These Tips Really Work!!
Late August isn't known as a "big bass" time of year... until now! Come along for an awesome evening on the water as Tim catches BIG largemouth after adapting to changing conditions. He didn't go out planning to pick up a spinning rod, but its what the conditions required.
Tim headed out with a plan to frog and fish heavy cover. The conditions weren't lining up, and once he set his preconceived notions aside and fished the conditions, he was rewarded in a big way! The next time you're on the water and you're struggling, take a step back and evaluate whether you should power through, or adapt. You just never know what could be waiting when you do!
Below you'll find links to all the baits and gear Tim fished throughout the evening. We've included the exact sizes, colors, and terminal for each. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
