This swimbait trick could change the way you fish for bass. In this video, I reveal a deadly secret that no one’s talking about — modifying soft plastic swimbaits like Keitech-style paddletails and fluke style baits with small blades to add extra flash and live-action movement. This simple tweak makes your swimbait look more natural, triggers more strikes by adding flash, and helps you stand out when bass are pressured. I’ll walk you through exactly how to rig it, the components you need, and the best swimbaits for modification to dominate your next bass fishing tournament. Whether you’re fishing clear water, grass edges, or deep structure, this swimbait modification will give you a little tournament edge. #SwimbaitFishing #BassFishing #FishingHack #SwimbaitRig #FishingTips #Tournament #BassFishingTips #hack

This sneaky swimbait rigging trick is borderline UNFAIR. In this video, I show you how to rig a soft plastic swimbait to make it swim with ultra-natural, lifelike action — even in the most pressured bass fishing conditions. You’ll get an underwater look at how it moves, learn exactly how to fish it, and see why this swimbait setup flat-out catches fish when nothing else works. If you’re tired of followers and short strikes, this advanced swimbait technique might be your new secret weapon. Perfect for clear water, finesse swimbait fishing, and getting bites from big, pressured bass that have seen everything! Today we tested this swimbait rig on Smith Lake sight of the upcoming Major League Fishing Invitational tournament! #SwimbaitFishing #BassFishingTips #FishingHack #PressuredBass #BigBassTrick #SoftSwimbait #fishingsecrets #tournamentfishing

I like fishing a spinnerbaiit but nobody knows more about it than JT Kenney so I had him talk about some cold water winter fishing techniques with a spinnerbait and chatterbait while we were on Lake Guntersville. I never knew about the weight trick with spinnerbaits to DIY Mod your own mini blade bait which is pretty cool along with some other awesome tips JT lays out for catching more fish on blade baits in the cold water fishing season.

There is no doubt in my mind the Shimano Curado 200e is and was the best fishing reel ever made. These days I pair it with my heavy cover fishing rods for frog fishing, punching, flipping and anything that involves braided fishing line. These are basically antique fishing reels but they’ve held up to catching fish so awesomely well that I just can’t see myself replacing them. They do need a little TLC from time to time when I’m not on the water and I think a mouse got to my reel handle on my punching rod setup so I needed to replace it. I opted for a Hawg Tech handle over a standard Shimano replacement because my buddy makes them, they look pretty epic (matching my fishing rod), and they last longer than the one’s Shimano sells after market. We do a quick reel handle repair in this video and you can see how simple it is to swap out any standard reel handle with a new one as well as take a look at a giant fish catch using my technique specific cranking handle.

Our fishing road trip to Wisconsin has begun and it’s time to reveal one of the soft plastic worm rigs that no one talks about but used to catch me a ton of big bass. It’s a super simple diy rig or you can buy one pre rigged but in essence it’s a pre rigged straight tail plastic worm on a straight shank hook with a swivel. It’s best to use a 12-14lbs flourocarbon leader depending on how clear the water is as well as use braided fishing line behind it. When it comes to fishing rods throwing a medium action spinning rod about 7 foot seems to work best and really there’s no wrong way to work the fishing lure! Literally anyone can catch fish on this worm rig. One of the benefits as well is that it’s very easy to skip under docks or around cover and if you’re fishing really heavy vegetation you can always use a hook with a wire weed guard. A challenging but epic first day to the trip back to the old stomping grounds and the lakes and fisheries I grew up casting on. We’ll see if I learned anything while I was gone!!!

Are you sick of your basic fishing lures and tackle costing way too much? I figured out the cheapest way to go jig fishing with high quality super customized jigs and it’s an easy DIY Mod from Tackle Warehouse. Pick your jigs, head style, weight, then get the skirt making kit we talked about in a prior video and make your own custom skirts – no one else will have the same jig as you and you’ll be amazed how much more confidence you fish your jig with.

We also do an unboxing of new Tackle Warehouse baits I picked up for late summer and fall frog fishing and grass fishing out on the lake. I’m excited to learn more about jigs going into fall fishing – it’s the perfect time to try out this technique as well as have a shot at catching some big bass on them.

Drop a comment and tell me your favorite lure pick or a tip about that lure for the Bass Attitude shirt!!!

When you take big risks you get big rewards!! This is the most dangerous bass fishing on the planet, putting a big tungsten weight with a heavy action fishing rod under a mat can be totally + WORTH IT!!! Jacob Wall (FLW PRO) and I go to Lake Guntersville and flip mats and cast chattterbaits for big bass. Fishing heavy cover is worth it when it produces big fish and it did today we walk thru tip and techniques for targeting bass in late summer and fall – where, why, and how to find insane fishing in heavy vegetation and cover.

I love custom diy fishing lures and jigs but I don’t have a lot of time to do it. So I got a custom jig skirt making kit from Tackle Warehouse to make some. I have a secret jig color I love to throw that works in any kind of water especially clear to ultra clear lakes. Here is how to make your own jig skirt for fishing and the secret layer color I would recommend putting in any jig you are using to catch bass.

Want the fishing kit in the video or any of the fishing rods, fishing reels, and fishing lures I use – find them all at Tackle Warehouse:

Fishing for bass is all about DIY details especially during the early spring when fishing can be a tough game to win. Here are some tips on crankbaits I figured out and some of them are so DIY that all you need is a permanent marker. Being successful with certain fishing techniques usually rely on subtle details, so give these things a try the next time you head to the lake.
