Come along as we explore new lakes in new states! We’re throwing everything from crankbaits and swimbaits, to jigs and dropshot, to catch a pile of fish! We stick great big Smallmouth, beautiful Spotted Bass, and a few Largemouth too! Watch as we dissect 3 very different fisheries in 3 days and build patterns that produce consistent bites each day.
Whether you’re driving across state lines or fishing right in your back yard, you can use this information to break down the lakes and ponds around you. Bass are feeding heavily before Winter and you can catch some really nice fish if you target them strategically instead of just going down the bank. Watch as we adapt to different conditions on different lakes, switch between lure styles at different times of day, and always keep an eye peeled for busting fish on the surface in the Fall!
Below you’ll find links to the baits we caught our fish on each day. Its separated into day’s one through three, with bait that caught the biggest bass of the day listed first. The links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
