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 might be the most hated worm rig in bass fishing… but it flat-out catches fish. In this video, we dive into finesse worm fishing with the Ned Rig — a rig many anglers avoid, but one that’s deadly for spring bass fishing. I break down exactly how to rig it, the best soft plastic worms to use, and share a pro-level secret for fishing it to trigger bites from pressured and finicky bass. If you’re looking to level up your finesse fishing game and catch more bass this spring, this Ned rig tutorial is for you.

In this fishing tips and techniques video I go though what the pros don’t tell you about flipping and punching for heavy cover bass in summer and fall. One of my favorite techniques to catch bass, I teach you what soft plastic lures to use, how to rig them for flipping, and what to look for when pond fishing or lake fishing to go punching for bass. It is one of my favorite fishing techniques and works great anywhere you have super heavy cover that mats up. It is also an epic way to catch bass – heavy fishing rods, heavy braided fishing line, and a heavy tungsten weight.

In this video I show you my favorite place to fish for and catch PB bass – you really don’t need to fish anywhere else in Florida if you are trying to catch a trophy bass, it’s cheating!!! The Sebring and Highlands County lakes offer any angler the chance to use a ton of fishing techniques – from frog fishing, flipping and punching, to fishing ledges and offshore structure with crankbaits, spoons and jigs! In this video I teach you one of my favorite ways to catch bass in late summer and fall by using my HDS LIVE sonar to locate brushpiles and fish them with jigs, spoons, and hair jigs!

Don’t ever fish for bass in summer with trying a jig. Specifically a Hair Jig. It’s a great fishing technique for ledge fishing and offshore summer bass to mimic forage like shad and other bait fish that move to deeper water during summer for more oxygen, cooler water, as well as in reaction to fishing pressure in clear water. There is no right or wrong way to fish a hair jig. I have a couple rod and reel retrieves I use all the time that seem to trigger fish on any lake. One slow rolling the lure near the bottom; two giving the reel a few quick turns and then lifting the fishing rod and slightly pendulum the bait down on a semi taught line; and three fast reeling the jig for a few quick turns and letting it just sink back down.

There is 1 thing that is a huge fishing cheat you never want to forget when trying to catch summer bass – either fish them super fast and try to trigger them with crankbaits, big swimbaits, spoons, and reaction style fishing lures; or fish them super slow with soft plastic Texas Rigged Worms, Ned Rigs, drop shot rigs, Neko Rigs, and all the finesse techniques you can think off. The fish seem to either be in one mood or the other when fishing in summer and that means the techniques you use to catch bass need to mimic that mood. Warmer water temps and clearer water leads to more stable fishing so once you figure out a fishing pattern you can stick with it but when it comes to lakes with a lot of fishing pressure or boat traffic you may have to adapt your approach and cheat a little with more finesse style lures or highly reaction oriented baits.

Late spring and summer fishing is here and that means swimbaits, crankbaits, jigs and tons of other fishing lures and fishing techniques to catch post spawn bass moving into summer patterns. I got a bunch of baits from Tackle Warehouse to get my fishing rods rigged up for this lure transition and I go though each lure and how to fish it out on the lake.
