Top 5 Baits For August Bass Fishing!

Here are the top 5 baits we trust to catch bass in August! August is HOT but don't let that stop you because the fishing is can be incredible! You can fish these 5 (Its actually 10... but who's counting?) baits with confidence whether you're walking the shore of a pond, exploring a clear water reservoir, or flipping your way through a shallow Southern fishery. 

August brings some of the hottest days of the year and with them, very predictable patterns. Bass become more lethargic in the heat and spend much of the day tucked against cover or structure. Once you know where to look (we're going to explain that too) all you have to do is fish these baits with confidence. You can catch fish all Summer long and we're going to help you do it!

Below you'll find links to all 10 baits discussed in the video, separated into their two categories. We'll give you two bait choices in every category so you can decide between the most affordable option or the top-shelf option. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
