Fall Fishing For Bass Is Easy!! (Here's How We Do It)

The bite is on, the fish are biting, and we're having a blast!! You don't want to miss this! We're on the water today catching fish on all the techniques we've been talking about lately! From big swimbaits to crankbaits, to topwater and finesse, we're showing you exactly why we cover these topics in the Fall! 

Its easy to latch on to a single technique, especially when its working. Today we're reminding you that you can always break the mold, try something different, and build new patterns. Our day started off with a glide bait and a lipless and ended with a squarebill and a topwater. Fall bass fishing is all about reading the conditions and adapting to change. 

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear we used in today's video. We've included the exact sizes, colors, hook upgrades, etc... for each lure so you can see exactly what we were using.

Summer Bass Fishing Tricks: Swimbaits and Crankbaits!

The bite is wide open! Come along as we catch fish on big swimbaits, crankbaits, and underspins! We're exploring where fish position on offshore and deep water structures in Summer, and putting the words to action on these Summer bass, as we catch them one after another!

A lot of anglers are intimidated by fishing offshore. Without the shoreline to cast toward it can be scary to move around in the open water searching for fish. But in reality, with decent mapping and a little confidence, its really easy to catch bass away from the bank. Matt teaches where these fish are positioning, then proves it by catching a pile of fish along the way. 

Below you'll find links to the exact baits used in the video. We've included our favorite colors for each (the color we caught them on today listed first), as well as the gear and equipment we used to fish the baits effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Finesse Underspin Swimbaits For Summer Bass!

Come along for an evening on the Tennessee River with Tim and Josiah. The guys are targeting schooling fish with a variety of baits before finally keying in on an underspin. Once they pick up the under spin, its like a light switch flipped and bass start coming into the boat right and left!

We all know the power of swimbaits, especially small swimbaits, when it comes to targeting schooling fish. But taking it a step further, an underspin with its increased flash and vibration, is amazing at drawing bass' attention away from schools of baitfish. That little blade can be the difference between catching a few fish, and having an amazing time on the water. 

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear the guys were using. We've also included details about the sizes of the heads and exact bait colors we use for schooling fish. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

TACTICALBASSIN vs Kids - KIDS WIN! (Post Spawn Bass Fishing)

He taught them right and now these kids are hammers! Tim is out on the water with his boys and his youngest catches the biggest fish of the trip! Its a junk fishing evening with a mix of topwater, dropshot, shaky head, and frogs. You can tell these kids know their stuff as they talk about skipping under docks, how big their PB's are, and cast angles while catching post spawn fish.

This is a great time of year to be on the water. There are still a lot of bass shallow and they can be caught on a mix of slow moving and reaction baits. Tonight the guys relied on a slow moving dropshot and shaky head (note the worm colors, that part is key!) and a faster moving popper and frog.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits the guys were using, including colors and sizes. We've also included links to some of the rod and reel combos they were using. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
