Catching a 10 LBER on a Lipless Crankbait With NO NET!

Tim lands a beautiful 10.88 lb bass on Clearlake with a Lipless Crankbait! Watch the epic battle and check out this beautiful fish when he finally gets her in the boat! 

The Lipless Crankbait is known as a great bait to catch numbers of bass but in the Spring its an amazing way to catch GIANT bass as well! Here on Clearlake the lipless crankbait catches a ton of big bass every year. By combining the right rod and reel with the right lipless crank Tim was able to subdue this fish of a lifetime despite an epic battle!

10 Pounder on the Lipless Crankbait!

Tim hit Clearlake between storms and got rewarded with a MONSTER BASS! In this video he explains exactly what went in to catching this 10 lb trophy bass!

For years we've preached how effective lipless crankbaits like the LV-500 are at catching trophy size bass. In this video Tim explains how he targeted a school of prespawn bass and was able to catch the biggest bass in the school by triggering her with the crankbait.

Matt's Biggest Limit | 51 lbs with a 12 lb Kicker!

Catching a 51 lb limit for 5 bass is an experience of a lifetime. Doing it with a camera crew while filming for Trev Gowdy's Monster Fish was amazing! To top it off, the day before they had a 25+ limit of smallmouth bass! 

The number one question we get asked is can you see the show? It still airs from time to time but we don't have a hard copy of it. Be sure to record "Monster Fish" if you want to see it!

We were so blessed to catch even one giant bass on a swimbait but to catch a huge limit, and in only 3 hours was truly amazing! Trev Gowdy also go the biggest bass of his life that day. If you ever get the chance to fish big swimbaits , give it a try, you just never know what could happen! 

The Story Of Matt's 12+ Lber From Shore!

Do you want to catch a 10 lb bass? Are you a bank fisherman who doesn't own a boat? We didn't always own bass boats either. There was a time when we were sneaking into ponds and creeks in search of anywhere we might catch a bass. Check out this story of Matt catching a bass that was 15+ lbs from the Shore of a local pond!!

Sorry we don't have the video to match but this fish lit the fire that led to the addiction that became Tactical Bassin! We know some anglers don't care for bedfishing and others don't but his was early on in Matt's fishing career and was the bass that inspired his addiction to trophy bass fishing!

What can you learn from this story? ANYONE can catch a giant bass if you put your time in. Whether or not you have a boat, whether or not you have the best gear, your time will come. Stick to it, keep fishing, and one day you're going to get your shot at the fish of a lifetime!
