Many bass anglers use a “chunk n wind” approach to fishing crankbaits relying on the occasional deflection off cover as their main trigger mechanism…
But changing up the speed and action you impart to the crankbait during the retrieve will help you catch more bass as bass pro Aaron Martens (R.I.P.) discusses in the following video…
Many bass anglers struggle when it’s time to fish cool to cold waters and the fish are keyed-in on baitfish such as shad and perch…
Selecting the right type of crankbait and combining with the correct presentations will greatly increase every bass angler’s success during the cool and cold water periods…
In the following video, Bassmaster Elite Pro, Mark Menendez identifies his “go to” crankbait type, the equipment he uses as well as presentations to maximize his success with cool water bass…
Enjoy!
What's your favorite cool water crankbait?
Mine is a thin-bodied bait like the Rapala Shad Rap!
When many bass anglers think of fishing a tube for smallmouths, small to medium sized tubes presented in depths of 10 feet or less and a slow, subtle presentation come to mind.
But there are times when smallies, especially big smallies, get fired up when big tubes, rigged with heavy jigs heads are aggressively ripped or stroked on deeper water structure…
Take a moment to watch this short video and see how and when the system works for power fishing smallmouth bass on deep humps, ledges and rock piles…
So if fishing waters where smallies stage on deeper water structure and cover, try power stroking big tubes jigs to connect with some of the biggest bass in your waters!
Salted soft stick baits are a “go-to” bait for many anglers, especially when fishing shallow water cover such as docks, over-hanging brush lines or downed trees. These baits can be rigged in a variety of ways to help make them snag-proof; can be fished weightless and make great skipping baits adding to their appeal.
One of the first and most popular soft stick baits on the market is Yamamoto Custom Baits Senko!
Though the bait looks pretty simple to rig and use, a few tweaks will help you get the most out of your Senkos as described in this short video…
I have to admit, soft stickbaits like the Senko are my "go-to” bait throughout most of the season...
