Tim's Tricks For Fishing In The Wind! (While Fishing A New Lake)

Fall fishing is awesome, even when the conditions are tough! Come along for a windy day on a brand new lake. Tim is out exploring a new lake, and it doesn't take him long to find a great pattern, despite the wild weather. From dropshot to shaky head, to jerkbait... he dials in a pattern quickly and catches a ton of fish!

We all dream about beautiful Fall days, but what about when rough weather rolls across the lake on your day off? When the going gets tough, the angler that adapts quickly will see success. Tim was faced with especially difficult conditions because he has no history to lean on with this lake. Despite the challenges, he dialed in a great jerkbait bite and caught a bunch of bass!

Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear Tim used throughout the day. We've included the exact baits colors, as well as the rod and reel combos he used to fish these baits effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Early Summer Bass Fishing Tricks! (Incredible Swimbait Fishing!)

Come along for a fun day on the water! Tim is on a road trip through the North and picked a random lake off the map. Watch how he builds several unique patterns and catches a ton of beautiful largemouth and smallmouth on everything from a swimbait to a spy bait!

This is such a fun time of year to be on the water! You can catch fish a variety of ways, as illustrated by Tim's fishing today. When the conditions dictated, Tim caught a bunch of quality fish on the Megabass Magdraft. After a front blew through, he turned to a jerkbait and a spy bait to keep his bite alive. It just goes to show you, if you keep a rod in your hand, you never know what will bite!

Below you'll find links to the exact baits Tim used throughout the day. We've included the exact colors, sizes, and bait modifications, along with the rod and reel combos he used to fish them effectively.
