These Fall Tricks Make Fish Bite!

When fish don't want to bite you can still make them react! Forget trying to fool bass into biting and use these tricks to draw a reaction strike instead! There are a handful of key baits that consistently draw reaction strikes, even as Fall begins to fade into Winter. 

Come along for a day on the water as Matt uses speed cranking and soft jerkbaits to trigger a feed response in wary bass. Not every day is a prime fishing day but if you know how to get bass to feed you can catch quality fish in tough conditions.  

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear Matt was using throughout the video. He's included sizes, colors, hooks, as well as the exact rods he used to fish these baits effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
