**Crazy Underwater Footage** Big Bass Attacking Bluegill Lures!

Come underwater and watch these bass attacking bluegill! We’re using a variety of bluegill imitating swimbaits and plastic worms to elicit reaction strikes. Early Spring signals the start of the war between bass and bluegill, let us show you how to take advantage of it and catch more bass in today’s underwater video!

Once bass turn their attention to the shallows, bluegill become an immediate threat. Instinctively, bass begin to erratic them from their shallow haunts. Knowing this, we can stay one step ahead of the bass. By imitating bluegill we are able to draw on the bass’ natural aggression and ultimately catch more fish.

In today’s underwater footage we used a variety of bluegill imitators. From worms to swimbaits, we’ve linked all of the baits below in the order they appeared in the video. All of the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item. We’ve also included rigging components where relevant.

Clear Water Bass Fishing Tricks! How To Catch Bass In Crystal Clear Water!

Clear water fishing scares a lot of people! Unless you’ve had a lot of rain, a lot of our fisheries get clear this time of year. When that visibility increases a lot of anglers lose confidence in their ability to catch bass. Maybe the fish see the line, maybe they see you, what can you do to keep catching them? Its not as tough as you think, and the answers may be VERY DIFFERENT than what you’re expecting!

“Clear Water” doesn’t always mean 10 or 20 feet of visibility, this can even happen when your fishery is usually muddy and suddenly has 2 or 3 feet of visibility. Step one is to stay very quiet. Don’t make excess noise, avoid vibrations, and you’ll get more bites. Step two, target the visibility line (AKA “color line”). Step three is to use lighter line for finesse techniques. If you’re not going lighter, go faster, that keeps the fish from having time to inspect your offering. Step four, shade and wind are your friend. Focus on dark edges that fish can use to ambush food, or days when waves are breaking up the overall visibility.

Below you’ll find links to our favorite baits for clear water situations. Yes, finesse is key, but don’t be afraid to mix in reaction and target those bigger fish in clear water. All of the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item. We’ve also included a couple of our favorite finesse fishing rod and reel combos in case you want to expand into this style of fishing.

**Insane Underwater Footage** Fish Attacking Lures And Bass Fishing Tips!

Watch these bass attacking all kinds of lures! They’re ambushing jigs, swimbaits, jerkbaits, and even topwater! We’re studying their behavior to understand what makes them lash out. When we know what causes them to let one lure pass by and then suddenly eat the next, we can adapt our fishing. Studying underwater footage will make you a better angler and let’s face it, watching a giant bass explode on a Whopper Plopper is pretty fun too!

Triggering a feed response is more than just using the right lures, its knowing what it takes to get a fish to feed. Its amazing to see the similarities regardless of the lure. The same hop of a jig that causes the bass to lash out with fool a mid column fish when you twitch the jerkbait. There is something about that break in cadence, that extra twitch or hop, that causes those fish to lash out.

Below you’ll find links to all the baits in the video. We’ve included the exact colors we were using along with any upgrades, including hooks on the S-Waver and trailers on the jigs. All of the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

How To Catch Bass With Plastic Worms **Underwater Footage Of Bass Attacking Lures**

We can learn more in a few minutes underwater than we can in months on a boat! Watching how bass bite different lures, what makes them lash out, what causes them to back away, is incredible information that makes us better bass fisherman! Today we’re focused on plastic worms rigged different ways. Come underwater with us and watch how bass eat a Ned Rig, a Dropshot, a Shaky Head, and a Neko Rig!

We learn so much about bass every time we head underwater, but we also learn a ton about the lures we’re using. From above, a Neko rig doesn’t look like much but did you see how that bait quivers in the water?! the X Zone Ned Zone is just another bait above water but its got that extra something that just gets bit and its easy to see why! Did you see any stand out baits in today’s video? Perhaps it was the way that smallie smasher shakes at even the lightest touch, or the way the Ned Bomb’s tail pumps as it moves through the water?

We hope you’re able to glean all sorts of information from this video. It never ceases to amaze us how little subtleties make huge differences in these baits and in the bass’ behavior toward them. Pay close attention to how much you move (or don’t move) your baits and you’ll start catching more fish. All of the baits are linked in the description below. We’ve included our favorite colors for each as well as the tackle we used to rig them. All of the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Underwater Footage From Bass Heaven!! (Is This Even Real?!) Insane Topwater Strike Footage!!

This is the craziest school of GIANT BASS ever! They just finished spawning, they’ve schooled up on outside structure, and they’re hungry! Come UNDERWATER and watch as we throw TOPWATER lures over them. These fish are exploding on a frog, whopper plopper, walking bait, and popper. The topwater strikes are crazy!

Its amazing to see how different the bass treat each of these topwaters. The Whopper Plopper gets hunted down at top speed and ambushed any which way the fish is able to get it. The walking bait is hunted back and forth and ultimately ambushed from the side. The frog and popper are both hunted vertically with the bass shooting straight up and eating the bait belly first.

There is so much we can learn from this! Knowing how the bass eat the baits tells us which baits to throw when the bass are in different moods. We also see that the slower moving baits will rely much more heavily on “fooling the fish” (bait color, sound, hook color, etc) than the faster moving offerings.

Below is a breakdown of the baits in the video including our top 3 baits from each category. We’ve also included our favorite color choices for each style, hook and hardware upgrades, and our favorite rods for throwing topwater. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

How Fish React To Different Lures – Incredible Underwater Bite Footage!

Come underwater and watch the incredible reactions these fish have to different lures! Watch how incredibly accurate they are as they strike at lures while dodging the hooks. Its amazing! Most anglers consider fish to be basic and instinctual but this footage suggests they have incredible control while attacking their prey. While watching their behavior Tim provides key clues to help you adapt your fishing to become a better bass fisherman this year.

This video came about because Tim was watching underwater footage of bass while quarantined at home during this pandemic. He noticed a tendency with the fish to bite just behind the hook on a jig. As he began digging through footage he noticed it was the same with worms and swimbaits as well. Could it be that bass are really that smart? It would appear so! With that in mind, what can you do differently to increase your odds of catching these fish?

Tim suggests a few different solutions. The first is to shorten the trailers on your jigs. The shorter the pinchers are, the more likely they’ll fully engulf the jig. Second is to adapt your hooks, even going to a red hook to draw a directed strike toward the hook. For finesse fishermen, Tim suggests going to smaller worms, lighter line, and much smaller hooks so they go unnoticed by the bass. Lastly, adjust your hookset on larger baits. Often times its wise to wait a moment and give the fish the opportunity to fully engulf the bait.

Below is a breakdown of the baits in order of appearance. The links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item. We’ve also included color recommendations to help you fish with confidence.

Underwater Sight Fishing – How To Catch More Fish!

Want to catch more fish? Come underwater and watch how these fish interact with our lures around their spawning beds! The fish are biting a jig, dropshot, texas rig, ned rig, and a variety of swimbaits! Whether you’re a beginner or advanced angler, pay close attention to the details about how to avoid short strikes and false bites if you want to become a better angler overnight.

During the spawn, bass are less motivated to feed than other periods. If you haven’t spent much time sight fishing start with this recent Sight Fishing Video to help you avoid common mistakes: https://youtu.be/3pJsNGdv9QM

Because bass are focused on spawning rather than feeding their habits change. They become more protective and aggressive but rarely fully engulf your lure. Knowing how to adapt color, size, and retrieve goes a long way to catching more fish. This is the time of year to catch a new personal best so pay close attention to the details in this video and apply them the next time you’re at the lake.

Below is a breakdown of all the baits (in order of appearance) used in the video. All of the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and lure descriptions.

Amazing Underwater Footage!! Crazy Bass Strikes on Creature Baits!!


Let’s head underwater and watch how bass react to some of our favorite baits! In today’s underwater video we’ve Texas-Rigged some of the most popular creature baits on the market and are presenting them to largemouth and smallmouth bass. Do you ever wonder what your baits look like underwater? Have you wondered what movements get the most bites? Come underwater with us and find out!

We focused on 5 key creature baits. These baits have proven themselves over and over, all filling different niches in our fishing. Pay attention to the subtle details between them as you decide which might be the best for your fishing needs. A couple immediate standouts include Big Bite’s ability to float vertically above the grass and the Keitech’s incredible swim at slow speeds. If you look closely you’ll notice subtle details in each offering.

Below is a breakdown of all the baits in the video. We included the terminal tackle used as well as rods and reels we recommend for this technique.

How Fish React To Different Jigs!!! Underwater Bite Footage!!


The strikes are violent! We headed underwater with a variety of jigs to see how different bass would react. Largemouth and Smallmouth both aggressively attack a jig with tenacity rarely seen with other lures. Depending on how you rig it, a jig can imitate a crawdad, a bluegill, or a variety of other prey species. Watch how these different fish attack everything from a large pitchin’ jig down to the smallest of finesse football jigs.
Do you fish a jig? Some anglers love them, others struggle to find consistent success. After watching how these fish react, its clear that a jig should have a permanent place in your arsenal! Two keys to a jig’s effectiveness are its adaptability and its weedless characteristics. With a handful of different head designs a jig can be adapted virtually any circumstance.
Pay close attention to which jigs and trailers these fish were most aggressive with. Also pay attention to which retrieves/hops triggered the most aggressive bites. Below is a breakdown of all the baits and trailers used in the video (In order of appearance), along with color recommendations for each.
