Two GIANT Bass, One Swimbait!! CRAZY!

From bad, to worse, to EPIC! You've got to see it with your own eyes to believe this insane big bass catch! Two fish on one cast is crazy but doing it without a rod, how is that even possible???

The cast started like any other but when Tim's S-Waver was clipped off his line by an aggressive fish it went downhill quickly. He thought the bait was lost until he saw movement in the water. A 2nd flash revealed two fish struggling with one another for control of the swimbait. In the midst of the commotion Tim was able to slip a net under them and successfully land the two fish without the use of his swimbait rod. CRAZY!

If it weren't for the footage it would just be another fish story. You've got to check it out!

How To Set Your Drag For Swimbaits, Crankbaits, and Jerkbaits

Here's how to adjust your drag for a variety of baits so nothing goes wrong when that BIG BASS finally bites! Each bait requires a little different drag setting but we make it simple so anyone can adjust their gear quickly and accurately. 

Adjusting your drag is the last thing on most angler's minds. Your drag was either set months ago and you just haven't changed it, or maybe you backed it off last trip and forgot to tighten it back up. Either way, you could be headed for heartache! These quick tips are going to change the way you look at the drag on your reel. Its no longer a mundane part of your fishing day, its a key component to successfully landing every fish that bites!

Matt Catches an 11 lber! Full Catch Footage!

This GIANT SWIMBAIT was no match for this 11 pound Largemouth! She completely inhaled the big bait! Matt was fishing Clear lake, throwing a Huddleston swimbait on a deep rock ledge when the big bass hit. 

Swimbaits are still intimidating to a lot of bass fishermen. Something about throwing that giant bait just crushes their confidence and fills them with doubt but as you can see in this video, they really do work. Its not complicated, its not difficult, its about consistency. If you consistently throw the big bait, you will eventually encounter a monster bass while she is feeding. You can do it!
