This tiny swimbait catches giant winter BASS || I Can't believe these work 

I am in the Richmond area. In between the rain, my son has been wanting to get out a few times. We were having no luck either with all the typical winter stuff until he decided to fish his "confidence bait" (he's just 9yrs old and only this year has switched from nightcrawlers to lures): a little 3" black single tail grub on a ball head. I didn't think it would work, but dang! if he didn't catch a few while I was still striking out. I switched up to the same after a few minutes, and lo and behold! I got a pretty nice 3 pounder. We were just barely swimming it back with lots of pauses. Three days later, the same pattern repeated itself. Just goes to show, for all of the fancy stuff we have at our disposal now, sometimes the stuff we used as kids still fools 'em.

Be still my heart.......a SB video! I have not been fishing, i have been hunting!

Rapala rip stop perch clown so dang sweet

Tactical Crank and Lipless have been yielding us some big bites the past 2 mos

Thank you for sharing what line and tackle you are using.

An under spin with a paddle tail, and a drop shot with a 3 inch worm. But now that you’ve shown us how good those lures work, they will be tied on the next time I head out.

Blade bait, finesse under spin, flat sided crank baits are working in Fort Worth, Texas

"My two best baits..." and he holds up 3 .... hmmm ............. : ) I get it! Be Safe

Great vid! Here in Central Texas our water is 55º. Caught all my fish on 1/3/24 on the 2.8 Keitech SI Fat on 3/16 oz. Decoy darter offset jig head.

You’ve got to try the 6 sense 2.7” electric shiner on 1/8th oz 1/0 hook. Go heavy for deeper water but that’s what’s been doing damage for me.

Heck I was trout fishing this past spring and somehow got a carp on a rooster tail! Year before that caught a 6in lake trout on a night crawler when I was fishing for perch. This fall was salmon fishing and actually hooked a steelhead not a salmon line broke but all the yrs I’ve been going there and hear people saying how many steelhead and there I actually hooked one on salmon rig

Some very nice catches! Thanks for sharing some good info and bait choices. Keep up the good work buddy!

Lipless has been crazy good for me Nov-Dec! Caught 70 in 2 days a few weekends ago. TN60 and LV150. When that starts not working I switch to a blade bait (no rattle) and clean up! I think they get conditioned to avoid the rattle after a while. Beyond that 2.8 and 3.3 Keitech either underspin or on a 1/8 jighead. Last but not least a Shad Rap in Helsinki Shad color. Find the shad, match the hatch, and get ready for fun!

Yup 👌👍🎣

Still catching em' on a Dropshot 🎣 Those 6th sense Divine swimbaits are great too. Great video.

I throw a 2.8 and kind of fish it like I'm tight lining, just a slow fall, it catches them!! Only issue I have is those keitechs are usually good for one fish and you gotta put on a new one! Wish they were a little tougher

Come to belews lake nc can catch some good ones off the FFS, last tournament we only had 10 something but 14 won it with a 6 pounder stays pretty clean and a few guys from Virginia normally come down here

Use a 1-32 ball jig with a yum minnow crappie gear is best for giants dark green or silver black pepper 8lb test medium fast pole open face it takes a lot to fish super slow like slow poke Rodriguez 5:3-1 is best bro.

Easy shiner is a very productive bait. Used it frequently up here in the Northeast!

In Chicagoland temps in the 20s and 30s. Been doing well on hard jerkbaits since November.

I just bought a19 185'i love it huge front deck

Swim jigs. Dirty Jigs finesse swim jig ( bluegill pattern ) with a 3.3 Keiteck Fat bluegill flash.

We have the same situation in Maryland, and I feel your pain. On the first the water was cold and very murky, but I did get fish from the bank on the Ned: "yoga pants" and junebug TRDs both got bites. Nothing big, but at least I wasn't skunked to start the year.

So far down here in South Carolina. Mostly just one fishing and catching bass on flukes. On the saltwater front, been catching trout and redfish on swim baits. We need to get you down this way buddy. 👍🏻😎. P.S. still good to see my OG sticker on your door! Good memories my friend. 😂

Haven't been out yet, spending my time getting the new boat ready for the season.

Dude we need a little rain i live on smith lake in Alabama and its to clear

6 in robo worm on 1/4 oz Shakey head dropping straight down on em

I am hooked on using Goby style baits

Hair jig and jig+fluke.

Yeah…. It’s all ice fishing here in S.E. Idaho. No bassin.

A -rig, chatterbait here in Florida

I fish a lot of pressured lakes, and I’ve found that the easy shiner out preforms the swing impact. It’s just a more finessey bait, simple

Yes a new video! How has your tranx held up for glides? I’m looking to get the 300hg.

2 weeks ago a 10 1/2 pounder on 9 inch KGB Chad shad

Megabass 110 +1 and +2 nothing else 5-10 second pause 12lb test. 47 degree water temp

Wa state. Nothing is working.

Dropshot/blade bait

Is SB about fishing or selling boats or lures now?
