Spring is prime time to go fishing and these baits will help you catch more fish! Don’t worry about trying a dozen different baits, focus on these key categories, especially when the conditions get tough.
Many anglers think of Spring as the time get out and power fish. While this is a great plan, it doesn’t always pan out. Its important to have a backup plan so you don’t struggle when conditions change. If you’re ready to adapt and drop down to finesse tackle, you’ll become much more consistent through the Spring, Summer, and beyond.

I wish the ice wood melt.
are you guys doing a 2018 rod and reel arsenal????
“We out here fishing in finesse”
Can you guys do a striper fishing video like what baits to use or something?
Hey guys, how do you like the gambler big EZ swimbaits?
thanks tim
I was out on the water today and saw 20+ top-water blowups and none of the fish took my lures. I used spooks, poppers, buzz baits, and a spinner-baits and I didn’t even get a bite. Please tell me what I am doing wrong
I have up tourney fishing years ago. I take a bucket of minnows and always get fish. No pressure,no money but just relaxation and fun.
100k here we come !!
thanks for the bait ideas. I planned to go with some other things that are very different this year. Hopefully will come up with some new things for everyone too.
what weight jig head is best for the 2.8’s to get the right wobble with your jig heads?
I have an idea for a video. You could make live videos with subscribers asking you some questions, like Matt did here: https://youtu.be/jcJXiWnKVf8 . You could make videos like this regularly, maybe once a month. Each video could be about something different: fishing for the biggest bass in the lake, swimbaits, jigs, etc…
still waiting for you guys to come up to Lake shasta or Trinity!
:))
I’m really ready for springtime Buddy!
Hey guys it would be cool if one day a week you did a short live stream when you are out on the boat fishing just letting us know the conditions, what your fishing, how your fishing and hows it goin.
just a suggestion.
Thanks for everything ALWAYS looking forward to the next video !
Hey guys my water temp is 47 degrees and my lake has a mostly sported bass in it any tips on how to find them I’ve been having a really hard time the last couple weeks
how would u describe the difference in action between the easy shiner vs the impact??
A question on another subject, Why are pork products no longer being sold?
Experienced this this weekend! Damn mother nature. Lol
Thank you for sharing! You guys are greatly appreciated.
Noob question, when fighting a fish, in what direction should you position the rod? Do you pull it in the opposite direction that the fish is swimming in order to maintain tension or do you position the rod in the direction the fish is swimming in order to reel the fish in easier??
Fishing New Melones for the first time on Sunday. Any recommendations on where and what to start? It has been freezing out here lately.
Please do a spinner bait / chatter bait full seminar vid please
Is the dropshot usable for bank/shore fishing? Don’t own or have access to boat but would love to try the drop shot this spring
Need less of you n more pics of baits your talking about..der…
I’d love to see a video explaining the differences between how you approach fishing a deep reservoir versus a natural lake like Clear Lake! Thanks for what you guys do!
I truly enjoy your channel and content. Keep up the good work!
What Rod would you use for a wacky style worm for a bait caster medium, medium light, medium heavy just not sure
