The EASIEST Trick To Catch BIGGER Bass Right NOW!

Want to catch bigger bass this year? There is one simple change you can make with your baits that will immediately increase the size of fish you catch! You don't have to fish different places or different times of day. Its easy!

The Shaky Head worm catches a ton of bass in Spring and Summer! If you've ever tried one you know exactly what we're talking about. However, the finesse jig is more likely to catch a bigger bass overall than the shaky head. If you want to start upsizing your catch without changing your routine, its as easy as cutting off the worm and tying on the jig. 

Below you'll find links to the exact shaky heads, jigs, and jig trailers we use during the Spring and Summer. We've also included some of our favorite rod and reel combos for jig fishing. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Catching Big Bass Without Fancy Electronics! Lake Chickamauga SlugFest!

Do you bass fish on a budget? This one's for you! We're out on Lake Chickamauga on the Tennessee River and we're catching BIG BASS! We forgot the electronics so we're fishing completely blind! If big screens, side imaging, and live sonar is out of your reach, don't let it get you down. You can still catch a huge limit of fish on a highly pressured lake with nothing but a rod and reel in your hand!

Not only are we fishing without electronics, Tim caught all our biggest fish on a budget-friendly rod as well! Electronics and nice equipment definitely make it easier to find fish quickly but it can be done easily enough by using your knowledge. Focus your time on secondary points and edges of spawning flats where fish should be gathering this time of year and eventually cross paths with quality fish. 

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and equipment we used to catch these fish. While some of these combos aren't our first choice for the given technique, you can see that they were very effective when we were in a pinch and needed them to come through. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Spring Buyer's Guide: Budget Rods and Reels For Bass Fishing!

Welcome to the 1st Annual Spring Buyer's Guide Series! We're kicking this series off with budget-minded rods and reels for serious anglers. We scoured the fishing industry for the best rods and reels for different techniques, so you don't have to break the bank when you need a new combo. This is only the beginning! We've got 6 videos in total, a new video launching every day this week, to help you with everything from rods to baits, and electronics to apparel. Check back every day for a fresh video!

When it comes to budget gear, the rod actions allow for some wiggle room between techniques. As a result, we were able to narrow the search down to a handful of models to cover all the most popular Spring bass fishing techniques. We specifically searched for rods that would multi-task at least 2 major categories, then paired them with affordable reels that could take the abuse needed for the techniques. 

Below you'll find links to the exact rods and reels shown in the video. They're listed in the order they appeared and we've even included our favorite line, based on the techniques we recommend. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
