Top 5 Baits For August Bass Fishing!
August is HOT! So is the fishing! When you know which baits to throw and how to fish them, this can be an amazing time of year to fish! In addition to the heat, August brings transition, so its very important that you understand exactly when and where to throw these lures.
Don't let the heat of Summer intimidate you! We've already done several videos talking about how bass position in the heat and how to predict their movements. Once you understand where they're positioned, all you need to do is fish these baits with confidence. Summer fishing is amazing and this is your year to figure it out!
Below you'll find links to the exact baits discussed in the video. We've listed them in the order they appear in the video and have included any hooks, rigging, etc... that you may need to fish them effectively. We've also included our favorite colors for each bait. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
