Offshore Fishing For Summer Bass! (Ledge Fishing Tricks + Open Water Fishing)

Summer ledge fishing is changing! There are more spinning rods in the hands of Southern bass anglers than ever before! Come along for a day on the water as Tim targets offshore bass, explores new patterns, and dials in some awesome Summer bass fishing on the Tennessee River!

Ledge fishing used to be all about heavy line and big baits. To some extent, it still is. But there is definitely a time for the spinning rod as well! Strolling is changing the game, and you need to add it to your arsenal if you haven't already. This unique technique triggers a feed response in bass and gets bit when other baits don't.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear Tim used through the day. We've included exact colors, sizes, and any upgrades that may have been made. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

How To Catch Bass Right Now, Even Though Its HOT!

It's HOT outside! That's good news for bass fishing! Hot temperatures put bass in predictable locations and we're going to show you how to target them! With just a few simple baits you can catch fish all through the heat of Summer, no matter how hot it gets!

Whether you prefer fishing shallow or offshore, Summer heat will help you catch more fish. Shallow fish move into shadows (we'll explain this in the video) and deep fish make room to let the giants feed. We target them during periods of high sun using large profile baits in likely locations. Summer fishing is easy once you apply this approach!

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and equipment we recommend in the video. We've even included our favorite colors for each bait, as well as some of the rod and reel combos we use to fish these baits effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
