How To Catch Bass In Cold Water Without Slowing Down!

Winter fishing doesn’t have to be boring! So many anglers have fallen into the trap of slow, methodical fishing in the Winter. Did you know you can trigger a feed response by speeding up? Its true! Matt explains the keys to getting consistent bites in the coldest Winter temperatures without ever slowing down.

The key to consistent Winter bites with reaction baits is understanding what it takes to “trigger” a feed response. Its also key to understand all baits are not created equal. Cold water separates the perfectly balanced, perfectly tuned baits, from the endless stream of new tackle hitting the market every year. If you want to be consistent in Winter, fish the right baits with proper technique and its only a matter of time before you start catching quality fish.

There are 3 very different approaches to Winter. You can swimbait for a giant, finesse fish for consistent action, or power fish with bite triggering retrieves to try and find the best of both worlds. Whichever path you choose, Winter fishing is worse the effort. Its incredibly peaceful, there is minimal boat traffic, and the odds of catching a big bass are very high.

Below you’ll find links to the 5 styles of baits we use to trigger a feed response. We’ve included our favorite baits, favorite colors, and hardware upgrades where relevant. We’ve also included our favorite equipment for some of these techniques. All of the links go directly Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Fishing 3 States In 3 Days! Awesome Fall Bass Fishing Road Trip!

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!
