Fishing A New Lake - Best Tricks To Find Fish!

Come along as Matt explores a brand new lake! He's got one day to find fish and put together a pattern. Learn how to break down your own lake as he explains his mindset about best locations, bait selection, how different species of bass position, and more!

Showing up to a new lake is always intimidating. Doing it without mapping is even scarier! But Matt was determined to learn this lake and put together a pattern to catch quality bass. Watch the highs and lows as he struggles, breaks off fish, then turns the corner and begins dialing in a pattern for bigger bass. Its a fun day on a new fishery that we'll be sure to return to in the future!

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear Matt was using in the video. We've included his exact colors, sizes, etc... so you can see exactly what he was using. We've also included some of the rods and reels he used to catch these fish throughout the day.

How To Catch Shallow Bass RIGHT NOW! Shad Spawn Fishing Tips!

Its time! The bass are shallow and you can catch them! There is a short window in Spring when shad are spawning and bass are aggressively chasing them, that you can catch a ton of fish with little to no effort. Don't miss your chance!

The shad spawn is an open door for bass fishermen to have a great day on the water. Forget the post-spawn blues, get up early, and catch a bunch of fish, and possibly a giant, all before breakfast! The key is using fast moving baits with a lot of flash or vibration to catch the bass' attention. At first light the shad will be spawning along shallow banks, grass, even docks, and the bass will be ready to ambush them. We use a variety of baits to quickly

Below you'll find links to the exact baits discussed in the video. We've included our favorite colors and sizes for each, along with any hook modifications we make.

Where Do Bass Go After They Spawn? (And How To Catch Them!)

As bass finish spawning they move out to deeper water. This move begins one of the most predictable times of the year, and fish catching becomes really easy! Despite this, there are always anglers who misunderstand the transition and struggle. We're going to show you how these fish move and how to get ahead of them so you can consistently catch fish, instead of struggling through the transition!

Once bass back away from the shore they typically rest for a few days before beginning their transition. The pattern they follow differs a little depending on if you're in a highland reservoir, lowland reservoir, natural lake, or moving water but the concepts apply equally to all of these locations. Once the bass have recuperated they typically split. Some turn around and re-enter the shallows, while others run the pre-spawn stops in reserve on their way to outside, offshore structures.

Depending on the type of fishery you're on, the baits can differ dramatically. The concept however, is to focus your time on faster moving, reaction baits. Below you'll find a list of Tim's top baits for the different fisheries. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

LIPLESS CRANKBAITS - Everything You Need To Know! (Beginner To Advanced)

Lipless Cranks are awesome! These crankbaits catch great numbers of fish and they catch giant bass too! They can be hopped, ripped, or steady retrieved in open water, around cover, or right on the bottom. With so many variables, where do you even start?! We're here to help...

The lipless is one of our favorite bass fishing techniques. It shines in the Spring and Fall but can catch fish any time of year. Our two main methods are hopping the baits on bottom and steady retrieving them in the middle of the water column. The two methods utilize completely different baits and today we're explaining why.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits discussed in the video. We've included our favorite colors for each, as well as links to some of our favorite gear for fishing these baits. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
