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.

Winter Dam Fishing - What Will We Catch Next?!

Come along for a day on the Tennessee River as we fish the Watts Bar Dam at the top of lake Chickamauga. Target species: Anything that bites! We love to catch bass but sometimes we just want to get on the water and catch fish. It doesn't matter what's biting when the kids are on board! 

Tim and JD didn't let the cold keep them from having a good time at the lake! The duo double up on catfish to start it off then work their way down stream in search of bass. The day is short lived however as the arrival of snow is more than they were prepared for. Sometimes its about fishing hard, sometimes its about big fish, and sometimes its just having a good time with the family.

Winter Jig Fishing Tips And Tricks!

Snow and ice won't stop us from catching fish! Come along as the guys hit the water on Dale Hollow in search of a Winter jig bite. They use a two-pronged approach throwing both a traditional football jig, and a Hula Grub in the cold January waters and it doesn't take long before big bass start coming into the boat!

Winter is a great time to throw a jig. The larger crawfish profile dragged slowly along bottom is often more than a lethargic Winter bass can resist. Similar to a swimbait, the jig creates a slow moving, oversized meal that requires little energy to eat and tends to catch bigger than average fish. Notice that Tim's first several fish were big bass, despite the brutal cold conditions. When the water temperatures plunge and the fish don't seem to want to feed, switching from a traditional football jig to a "Hula Grub" style jig will often get more bites as well. 

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear used in the video. We've included our preferred sizes, colors, and rod models for each presentation. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Small Creek Kayak Fishing! ( Tennessee Musky Fishing )

We're fishing a tiny creek for big fish! Come along for the excitement as we work our way upstream through chutes and shallows to target giant apex predator fish in this tiny fishery. Throwing giant swimbaits in a tiny creek, does it get any better? Matt hasn't been this excited to go fishing in a while!

Today we're on a musky mission! Matt has been chasing them non-stop this Fall and today we've got great conditions for a big bite. Chasing these fish takes swimbait fishing to the next level! Watch as he picks the water apart with some of his confidence baits in the pursuit of musky on bass lures. In the end, he's successful in landing a quality musky on a glide bait!
