Where Do Bass Go In The Middle Of Winter?! (And How To Catch Them On Your Lake)
This is how to catch bass on those COLD Winter days! Giant bass are caught every Winter, so don't be the guy sitting at home. These are the places you need to fish, and the baits you can trust, whether you fish a pond, lake, or reservoir. The boat ramps are empty, the lakes are peaceful, and big bass are willing to bite!
We're in the heart of Winter and bass have settled into their seasonal pattern. Their locations are set, their feeding patterns are set, and only the most extreme weather can disturb the balance. What that means for you, is that once you find fish you can catch them day after day. Winter can be amazing! Sure it's cold, but the chill in the air vanishes when you set the first hook!
Below you'll find links to all the baits and gear Tim discussed in the video. We've included our favorite colors, sizes, and equipment for each technique. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see photos and descriptions of the items.
