Flipping, Swim Jig And Frog! This NEW Lake Is Full Of GIANT Bass!

Come along for an amazing day of bass fishing!! We're targeting shallow fish around cover and we find a GIANT! It's not easy fishing in the heat, but when bass like these are willing to eat, it's worth it! From the jig to the frog, this day is going to be wild!

You never know what you'll face when you arrive at a new lake. Today we find ourselves in a maze of shallow cover that goes for miles and miles. In order to break it down quickly we decide to focus on the outside edges of shallow cover. The swim jig kicked us off, the flipping jig got the 9 lber, and the frog wrapped up the day with some fun!

Below you'll find links to all the baits Matt used throughout the day, along with the gear he used to fish them. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Swim Jig Tricks To Catch Spring And Summer Bass!

If you don't understand the value of Swim Jigs, this video is for you! This is an incredible technique and you need to be taking advantage of it! Swim jigs imitate panfish and shad better than traditional swimbaits and when you understand their purpose, they become an irreplaceable part of your arsenal. Here's what you need to know!

Swim jigs come in all sorts of shapes and sizes and they're not created equal. Understanding head shapes and hook strengths is just as important as understanding the difference between a chatterbait and a spinnerbait. Pay close attention as Matt details his jig and trailer pairings so you can use the best combination for your fishing conditions.

Below you'll find links to the exact jigs, trailers, and gear that Matt discussed in the video. He's even included his favorite weights and colors for each. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
