Bait Finesse Fishing For Early Fall Bass! These Finesse Tricks Really Work!!

Check this out! These TINY baits catch bass all through the Early Fall Transition! If you're tired of struggling and you want to try something different, come along on Matt's boat and watch how easy it is to downsize your presentation to catch more fish, and have more fun!

Whether you're struggling through the Fall transition, you can tell your bass are targeting small baitfish, or you live on a lake that doesn't have many big fish, whatever the reason; bait finesse is the solution! Quit fighting the trend, tie on a small bait, and give it a shot. There's a reason Matt puts the big baits down and picks up these small profiles in the Fall.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits Matt fished throughout the day. We've included the exact colors, as well as the rods and reels he used to catch fish. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
