Fall Fishing Tricks To Keep Catching Fish! (Finesse And Reaction)

Come along for a day of Fall fishing! Tim is on the water with bluebird skies and slick calm conditions. He intends to catch them on reaction, but quickly realizes the fish aren't in the mood. Learn as he adapts and puts together a quality limit of fish with a variety of power and finesse presentations.

We all love to power fish in Fall, but some days fish aren't in the mood. When Tim was faced with slick calm conditions, he turned to bait finesse rods and spinning rods to keep catching fish. From a dropshot to a Neko, finesse jig to shakey head, he adapted to changing conditions and kept catching fish. You can do this too!

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear Tim used throughout the day. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Don't Make These Fishing Line Mistakes!! (And The Tricks To Fix Them)

Who makes the best fishing line? Let's find out! Which line should you be using and when does it change? From Monofilament to Copolymer, Fluorocarbon to Braid, we're covering all the different lines and explaining the advantages of each!  Let's start simple for beginner anglers then dive in deep for advanced anglers!

The majority of line failures are a direct result of mistakes in line selection. Each style of line has benefits. Monofilament is inexpensive, strong, and easy to use. Fluorocarbon has incredible abrasion resistance and is nearly clear in the water. Braided line provides power in an incredibly thin package. While all of these lines have amazing benefits, each also provide challenges that need to be overcome. Understanding which line to throw for different techniques will improve your overall fishing experience!

Below you'll find links to the exact line Tim discussed in the video. We've separated them into different categories, based on price. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each.
