Fishing Deep Crankbaits for Big Bass

Do you struggle when attempting to fish deep crankbaits through offshore structure? I know I do!

Take a moment and watch as bass pro Chris Zaldain as he demos what it takes to hunt and catch big bass from offshore structure on deep crankbaits:

Wow can you believe what he had to do to get that fish in the boat?

Pretty impressive!

Crank the Contours for Transitioning Bass

Anytime you are bass fishing during a cool/cold water transition period, focusing your presentations on the right type of structure and cover will help you catch more bass…

During these transitions, bass often use the structural contours of the shoreline as roadways to assist in their movements between deep and shallow water areas…

In this video, Elite Series Pro Aaron Martens (Rest In Peace) explains his approach to fishing shoreline contours with crankbaits to connect with transitioning bass…

As Aaron suggests be sure to follow the contours and maintain your boat position to enhance your cool-cold water crankbait fishing success!

Oh and of course … “never throw a worm if the bass are biting crankbaits” ;)
