Catch The BIGGEST BASS Of Your Life Right NOW – New PB!

Now is the time to catch a GIANT Bass! This period leading to the full moon in June is a critical time for anyone that fishes for bass. We all dream of catching a new personal best (PB), this is the time to do it! The big post-spawn bass stage in anticipation of a big meal before heading to their Summer patterns and we’re going to show you EXACTLY how to CATCH them!

Today’s video is broken down into 4 parts. Depending on where you live and what stage your fish are in, you may want to focus on sight fishing for spawning bass, big soft swimbaits for post spawners, hard swimbaits to draw a reaction strike, or a big topwater in search of that aggressive bass looking for a huge meal before heading offshore. No matter which you choose, the next 2 weeks are critical with the bite culminating on the Full Moon on June 5th.

Below you’ll find a breakdown of all the baits Matt discussed in the video. We’ve included links that go directly to Tackle Warehouse so you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each bait. We’ve also included color recommendations, hook upgrades, and tuning tips where applicable.

***The Wild Willy is very affordable in the big bait category. It will perform better with some minor modifications. We Recommend the following upgrades to the Willy to get the best walk. First, upgrade Split Rings. Second, upgrade the rear treble hook to a larger, heavier hook. If a wider walk is preferred, add 6-8 sticky lead strips on the belly directly in front of the rear hook hanger. These upgrades will give you a phenomenal large walking bait at a very affordable price.***

How To Catch Bigger Smallmouth (And Largemouth) – Everything You Need To Know – Finesse Bass Fishing

Smallmouth are amazing! They’re aggressive, even in cold water. They’re willing to migrate huge distances for food. When you set the hook they give you a ride that is unrivaled by the other bass. There is little wonder why so many anglers love Smallmouth bass fishing. Targeting these predators requires a finesse touch and some unique gear that is often overlooked for the other bass species.

While you can catch a smallmouth on virtually anything, the fish tend to favor clearer water and a true finesse touch will increase your odds dramatically. In today’s video Tim dives into his favorite finesse tactics and equipment for consistently targeting these bronze backs.

Below is a breakdown of the gear he discussed in order of appearance. The links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
