Sight Fishing Tips And Shallow Water Tricks! + Jet Boat Tour!

Come along for a day on the water as we target shallow prespawn and spawning fish. Along the way we take a tour of the the completely redesigned jet boat, and cover some of the key information you need for ethical sight fishing during the spawn. If that's not enough, we end the day skipping docks with a swimbait!

The spawn is in full swing in much of the country. Its always a hot button issue full of heated debate about the ethics of fishing during the spawn. Our position is that in most of the country its legal, and if guys are going to do it, we'd like to see them doing it right. So today, in the midst of catching fish, Matt sits down and covers what you need to know about fish care, how to catch these big bass, and the baits he relies on to catch them quickly.

Below you'll find links to the baits Matt caught fish on today, as well as the gear he used. We've also included links to the baits he recommends for the spawn and the glasses he and Tim designed for this purpose. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

The EASIEST Trick For SPRING Bass Fishing!

RED and ORANGE catch BIG bass in the Spring! When water temperatures reach 50 degrees you should be reaching for a red bait to catch bigger bass! Whether your lake is crystal clear or chocolate milk, bass will attack red baits as they head into the pre-spawn. It can work with chatterbaits, spinnerbaits, lipless crankbaits, squarebill crankbaits, and more!

The biggest issue with throwing these crawfish-imitating baits is knowing exactly which color to throw. Some baits are neon orange, others are transparent red. So how do you know which ones to try? It all boils down to water color and conditions. Pay close attention as Matt explains how to use each color to your advantage and when to switch between them.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits, colors, and sizes Matt discussed in the video. We've also included links to some of our favorite gear for fishing these different baits. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each lure.
