Underwater Footage Of Bass Attacking Lures! ( Crystal Clear Water! )

Come underwater and watch how bass interact with your lures! From what triggers a bite, to when you should set the hook, there is so much to be learned by looking below the surface. Some of these fish are stalking their prey, others are defensive, and others are reacting to movement. Its amazing what we can learn!

In today's footage Tim is interacting with bass in different phases with different presentations. Between a Texas Rig, a jig, and a ned rig, its interesting to see how the bites can vary. Some fish inhale the bait while others nip at it repeatedly. At the end of the day the question is, when would you have set the hook? Would you have caught the fish or reeled up a torn up trailer? 

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear we used in the footage. We've also included some great combos for fishing these presentations. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

How To Catch Bass With Plastic Worms! **INSANE UNDERWATER FOOTAGE**

Want to become a better fisherman? There is no better way than to head underwater and study bass behavior! Come along as Matt teaches how to get the most out of plastic worms while studying footage of actual bass eating a ned rig, dropshot, shaky head, and texas rig!

We learn a ton about bass behavior when we head underwater, but we also learn about the lures we're using. From above, a ned rig doesn't look like much but when it hits the bottom it comes to life, and its obvious bass can't resist them! Did you see any stand out baits in today's video? Perhaps it was the way that Smallie Smasher shakes at even the lightest touch on a dropshot, or the way the shaky head sways on its way to the bottom.

Underwater Spinnerbait Footage! Spring Spinnerbait Tricks For Beginners and Advanced Bass Fishing

Come underwater as we look at some of the most popular spinnerbaits! See what makes each of them different, how they behave in the water, and how to change their actions. Matt explains how to apply the different styles to your fishing, no matter where you live. Spring is spinnerbait season, you don't want to miss this! 

From the surface its easy to assume all spinnerbaits are basically the same. Of course there are differences in color and blade shape but beyond that, it all seems similar. Slide below the surface though and you immediately see how unique all of these baits truly are. Paired up with swimbait trailers or fished as stand alone baits, each version has unique attributes that you can use to your advantage. 

Below you'll find links to all our favorite baits by style. The links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item. We've included favorite colors, weights, etc... as well as the rods and reels we use to throw them.

How To Catch Bass With Plastic Worms **Underwater Footage Of Bass Attacking Lures**

We can learn more in a few minutes underwater than we can in months on a boat! Watching how bass bite different lures, what makes them lash out,  what causes them to back away, is incredible information that makes us better bass fisherman! Today we're focused on plastic worms rigged different ways. Come underwater with us and watch how bass eat a Ned Rig, a Dropshot, a Shaky Head, and a Neko Rig!

We learn so much about bass every time we head underwater, but we also learn a ton about the lures we're using. From above, a Neko rig doesn't look like much but did you see how that bait quivers in the water?! the X Zone Ned Zone is just another bait above water but its got that extra something that just gets bit and its easy to see why! Did you see any stand out baits in today's video? Perhaps it was the way that smallie smasher shakes at even the lightest touch, or the way the Ned Bomb's tail pumps as it moves through the water? 

We hope you're able to glean all sorts of information from this video. It never ceases to amaze us how little subtleties make huge differences in these baits and in the bass' behavior toward them. Pay close attention to how much you move (or don't move) your baits and you'll start catching more fish. All of the baits are linked in the description below. We've included our favorite colors for each as well as the tackle we used to rig them. All of the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
