Jerkbait Tips For Early Fall! (Tricks To Get More Bites)

It's jerkbait time! The early Fall transition has begun! Bass are focusing on baitfish again and jerkbaits trigger a reaction strike in those hungry bass. If you've ever wanted to experience a wide open jerkbait bite like you've heard other anglers talk about, it's time to go give it a try!

When it comes to jerkbaits, no two baits are alike. Different baits have different applications and learning to use each bait at its best time will help you catch more fish. That said, these are the key baits that we trust to put fish in the boat. When it comes to color, it's time to get out of your comfort zone! Try the bold, obnoxious colors and you might be surprised by the results!

Below you'll find links to the baits and equipment Matt discussed in the video. We've included our best "Traditional" colors, as well as our best "Bold" colors for each bait. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Finesse Tricks For Skittish Bass ( Early Fall )

Tim is fishing a new lake and the water is crystal clear! Come along for a fun day on the water as Tim uses some finesse tricks to coax these Leary late season bass into biting! From specifics on his finesse tackle, to how to extend cast range, lead fish, and more... Tim is giving up all the tips!

Today was all about finesse! Tim's primary baits were a tube and a finesse swimbait. Color was key on the tube but didn't seem important at all on the swimbait. The most important factor was reaching the fish before they detected the boat. Long casts, light line, and keeping the boat quiet were all critical factors.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear he used throughout the day. We've also included some awesome budget–friendly combos that will help you maximize distance and catch these Fall bass, even in clear water and heavily pressured situations.

These 3 Mistakes Will Ruin Your Fall Fishing! (How To Avoid Them)

We all make mistakes but these 3 will mess up your whole Fall! If you want to catch more fish as we enter the Summer to Fall transition, you need to avoid these mistakes at all costs! Luckily, we've got some alternatives that are going to help you be successful.

This can be a difficult time of year and most anglers react by slowing down and fishing places where they've been successful in the past. While that seems wise on the surface, it's the worst decision you can make as we head into the transition. Instead, focus your time on new patterns, covering water, and fishing quickly. To be even more successful, focus your attention on the extremes of lure size by focusing on small presentations or big swimbaits.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and equipment we discussed in the video. We've even included some great budget rod and reel combos to help you fish these baits effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
