Top 5 Baits For March Bass Fishing!

March is an awesome month in bass fishing! Bass are moving shallow and you can catch them! This is a great time to catch the biggest bass of your life or just to get out and have fun. Today Tim is breaking down his key confidence baits for bass fishing in March. 

Okay, so we didn't exactly stick to 5 baits with this one... but there are a ton of great options right now. If you're searching for a giant bite, pay close attention to the big baits. If you're looking to cover water and catch numbers, focus your attention on the reaction baits. And finally, if you just want to enjoy a leisurely day on the water, focus on the slow moving presentation.

Top Baits For Muddy Water Bass Fishing!

You can't bass fish in Spring without running into muddy water. For some anglers its a disaster, while others wait in anticipation. If you know how to adapt to muddy water in the Spring, you can have some of your best days after a storm. The key to muddy water is knowing where the fish go, and which baits give you the best shot at catching them. 

In today's video Tim breaks down the six baits he relies on to catch fish in muddy water. He explains how colors, sound, and vibration can all impact your catch rates. Then he goes in depth on the circumstances where each lure type will shine. If you're an angler who doesn't understand muddy water, its time to give it a try. Warm, muddy water flowing into a lake will position fish in predictable ways and makes them easier to catch than when the water is clear.

Below you'll find links to all the baits and gear discussed in the video. We've included our favorite sizes, colors, and trailers for each application. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Cold Water Tricks That Catch Bass Right Now!

Do you struggle to catch fish in Winter? Not with these tricks! Subtle nuances are what separate the consistent anglers from the guys who struggle all Winter. And don't fall into the finesse trap either, you can catch a ton of fish with reaction baits in cold water if you know the tricks that work!

The colder the water, the more details begin to matter. Anyone can throw a crankbait out, reel it back, and catch a bass in the post-spawn. But knowing how to trigger a feed response in a lethargic fish is completely different. Perhaps you already know to pause your jerkbait longer, but do you know how to balance your bait so it suspends long enough to get the bite? This is only a sampling of what it takes to be a consistent Winter bass fisherman. 

Below you'll find links to the baits and gear Tim discussed in the video. We included upgrades, components, and favorite colors as well. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Fall Transition - Where Do The Bass Go? ( And How To Catch Them )

Fall transition comes much earlier than most anglers realize. If your fish are disappearing, your transition has already begun! Don't get left behind this year! Let us show you exactly where the bass are headed, and exactly how to catch them!

The Fall transition is incredibly confusing for bass fishermen because it happens despite the day time temperatures staying the same. This particular transition is triggered by night time temperatures and length of day. As soon as your nights begin to cool off, your bass will be on the move. Seemingly overnight the fish will school up and start chasing bait. 

Don't be caught off guard this year! As soon as the night time temperatures drop, start making adjustments. Focus your time on large flats, backwater shallows, and coves where bass can corral baitfish. This is an amazing time of year with huge schools of bass aggressively chasing smaller minnows, but only if you know where to look. 

Below you'll find links to the exact baits we discussed in the video. We've included our favorite sizes, colors, as well as the gear to fish them effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
