GIANT Bass On Lake Chickamauga! Swimbait Fishing and Tackle Tips!

Do you struggle to commit to throwing swimbaits? Let this inspire you! Come along for a day on Beautiful Lake Chickamauga as Tim commits to the big bait and is rewarded with a monster bite! This isn't a numbers day, its all about catching a big bass!

We all want to catch a giant bass but few anglers are unwilling to do what it takes, even for a few hours. Specifically targeting trophy bass requires a different mindset and approach than a typical day on the water. On this day Tim headed out on Lake Chickamauga with the goal of catching a big bass. It took a few hours but he was rewarded! His kicker weighed 8 lbs 5 oz and had an ENORMOUS frame that was capable of weighing even more!

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear he was using, along with some budget friendly alternatives. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can find detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
