How To Break Down Any Lake And Start Catching Fish!

Come along with Matt and Tim as they break down a new lake! These guys have dropped into a new fishery with zero information and immediately start putting the pieces together to catch quality fish with ease. It really is easy if you know what to look for!

While this lake didn't seem to have giant fish in it, the guys immediately figured out how to catch top quality fish for that lake. Along the way they share how they choose spots, how mapping can help, and the mindset behind their bait selection. This information will help you build a pattern on any lake, anywhere!

Summer Fishing - Tips For Finding Fish And Catching Bigger Bass

These boys dodged the heat wave and caught some giant bass! Hop in the boat with them as they arrive in Wisconsin after a 12 hour drive across 5 states! Watch how they build a pattern, immediately locate fish, and not only catch fish, but catch great BIG bass! 

The key to success this evening was understanding bass' movements during the post spawn. With no history to rely on the guys looked at the map, chose a couple likely locations, and immediately began catching fish. They used a two-part approach, mixing a spy bait in with a variety of swimbaits. Post spawn fish tend to be aggressive, they want to feed, and this mix of reaction baits was the perfect option to catch these bass. 

Below you'll find links to the exact baits the guys were using. We've included the exact colors and sizes, along with the gear they were using to throw them. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can find detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

How To Catch Bass With Spybaits

What have you been missing? What's the deal with spybaits? Do they really work? Will they work for you? Matt answers these questions and more in this detailed "how to" video on spybait and spinbait fishing. 

For those that are unfamiliar, spybait fishing is a japanese technique that is slowing taking off in the American market. It relies on the aggressive nature of bass to hunt down the bait based on the vibration of two small blades. If you want a bait that will catch reaction fish and finesse fish at the same time, look no further than the spybait.
