Amazing Underwater Footage!! Crazy Bass Strikes on Creature Baits!!

Let's head underwater and watch how bass react to some of our favorite baits! In today's underwater video we've Texas-Rigged some of the most popular creature baits on the market and are presenting them to largemouth and smallmouth bass. Do you ever wonder what your baits look like underwater? Have you wondered what movements get the most bites? Come underwater with us and find out!

We focused on 5 key creature baits. These baits have proven themselves over and over, all filling different niches in our fishing. Pay attention to the subtle details between them as you decide which might be the best for your fishing needs. A couple immediate standouts include Big Bite's ability to float vertically above the grass and the Keitech's incredible swim at slow speeds. If you look closely you'll notice subtle details in each offering.

Below is a breakdown of all the baits in the video. We included the terminal tackle used as well as rods and reels we recommend for this technique. The Texas Rig is an incredibly effective way to catch bass throughout the year and should be added to your arsenal if you're not already putting it to work.

Prespawn A-Rig Fishing With BONUS Tricks To Get More Bites!

Come along on Clearlake for an evening of A-rig fishing! Matt has found a school of aggressive prespawn bass that are feeding heavily in the shallow, muddy water. As Matt catches fish he begins explaining how the fish are positioning, why they're there, and modifications he makes to his A-rigs and retrieve to get more bites in the Spring.

Since the Alabama Rig stormed onto the bass fishing scene it has been at the center of endless controversy. Whether you love it or hate it, anglers can all agree that it is incredibly effective on prespawn bass. In today's video the effectiveness is seen yet again but Matt goes in depth on how the fish are positioning, swimbait color selection, and most importantly, how to twitch and pop the rig to imitate scattering baitfish. Once you've learned to twitch the rig properly you can unfold its full bite-triggering potential. 

Below is a breakdown of the exact equipment he's using in the video. We've also included budget equipment options and a few of his other favorite rigs and gear for this fun Spring technique!
