The FORGOTTEN Lure You Need To TRY! (Epic Day Of Old School Bass Fishing!!)

We're spending an entire day fishing an old school technique that has all but been forgotten! Come along for an awesome day of grubbing for Smallmouth in a clear water fishery! We're swimming grubs on light line and even adapting it to modern BFS gear for even more fun!!

The single tail grub is about as retro as it gets. Young anglers have no idea how to do it, older anglers around about to wonder why they stopped using them! The concept is simple, the gear is cheap, and the fish catching ability is amazing! Let's go grubbing!

Below you'll find links to the grubs and other gear we used throughout the day. We've included all our favorite colors, sizes, components, etc... as well as the rod and reel combos we fished them with. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Soft Jerkbait Tricks You Need To Try! (Plus Underwater Fluke Fishing Footage)

There may be no better bait to target aggressive bass than a fluke! You can fish it quickly as a topwater, twitch it as a jerkbait, slow fish it like a weightless worm, and even Carolina rig it! The soft jerkbait's ability to adapt puts it in a close of its own! This bait should be in every angler's late season arsenal and today we're going to show you how to adapt it to your lake's conditions.

Most anglers fish a soft jerkbait but few realize its true potential. With a simple hook adjustment this bait can become a topwater. With another adjustment you can suddenly throw it with the lightest of tackle, or the heaviest of gear. It can be Texas rigged in heavy cover, nose hooked in clear water, or be "donkey rigged" and fished around active bass. Most anglers use the Fluke but few know how to keep fishing eating it day after day.

Below you'll find links to the all the baits discussed in the video. We've included our favorite sizes, colors, and rigging components for each. We've also included some of our favorite soft jerkbait combos for the different rigging methods.
