GIANT BASS WITHOUT ELECTRONICS!! ( These Overlooked Baits Work All Spring! )

Giant Bass Without Electronics! Come along for an insane day on the water! Matt dials in an incredible bite, catching multiple giant bass on a topwater frog! Enjoy the show, but also listen to the details of his mindset, how he breaks down water, and why he’s making adjustments throughout the day.

Whether you have the nicest boat, motor, and electronics, or you’re walking the bank, you can catch big bass! It’s all about the mindset you come into it with, and how much adapting you’re willing to do. Matt covered miles of shoreline with a frog, and it was worth it! Also make note of that Bomba. That unique presentation is a great way to get bit when nothing else is working!
