Bass Fishing WITHOUT Electronics! How To Read The Water And Catch Fish!

Tired of watching people stare at their electronics? We're going fishing without them, come along! Tim is on a river system and he's dialing in a pattern the old fashioned way. He's got a crankbait and an underspin, and he's catching a ton of fish!

When current is present in a waterbody, bass will always use it to their advantage. If you can understand what that looks like, you can predict how bass will position, even if you don't have any electronics. Watch as Tim power fishes his way to some GIANT Smallmouth, without any outside help. Speed cranking is the star of the show today, but it's not the only way he catches them.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear Tim used throughout the day. From exact weights and colors, to his rod and reel choices, everything is included. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Two Lakes In One Day! Catching Bass On Crazy Lure Colors!

Most anglers don't know these lure colors actually work! Come on the road with us as we fish new water! We're throwing baits (and colors) that the average angler overlooks. Bold colors work incredibly well in Spring, especially in stained water. Come along as we explore, adapt, and catch giant bass!

Chartreuse and Blue are two of the most underrated colors in fishing. They may not work every day on every lake, but they tend to get larger than average bites. If you've been overlooking these bold colors, you may want to second guess that decision. Today the guys were applying them in fast moving current below giant dams on the Tennessee river, and the bass (and drum) couldn't resist!

Below you'll find links to the exact baits the guys were using, including the exact sizes and colors they used. We've also included some of the rod and reel combos we used to fish these baits effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Cold Muddy Water Fishing Tips! (On The Water)

Has your water turned cold? Don't give up! Cold and muddy water is a Winter angler's nemesis, but you can still catch fish! Come along for a day on the water as Tim faces these difficult conditions but finds unique areas where the mud works to his advantage.

Muddy water is great in Spring but it can make fishing really tough in Winter. If the entire lake has turned to mud, there isn't much you can do about it. Thankfully, on this day the muddy water was still pumping into the lake and Tim was able to find clear water/muddy water seams. These are prime areas to target quality fish under tough conditions and Tim took full advantage.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear Tim used throughout the day. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
