Finesse Swimbait Tricks! Heads, Colors, Actions! **Underwater Footage**

- Not all swimbaits are created equal! Today we're comparing how different swimbaits move in the water. We're looking at how different head styles impact action, and when each swimbait's movement style will help you catch more fish!
Finesse swimbaits are awesome! They catch large numbers of fish, but they catch giants too! It wasn't long ago that there were only 2 styles of finesse swimbait on the market... today it can take up an entire row at your local shop. So what's the deal? Which baits should you be using? And does that answer change throughout the year? Let's find out!
Below you'll find links to the exact baits and heads Tim discussed in the video. We've included our favorite sizes and colors for each, as well as some of our favorite combos for fishing these lures. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Matt and Tim sell more things to me than the actual vendors advertisements, and they do it unintentionally by just sharing information!
Right?? I hope tackle warehouse pays them well.
That’s why I ignore them now. I don’t fish enough lol.
Got my goofy ssa in Walmart and academy on the same day buying $10 dollar crank baits and I never use cause I don’t wanna lose em 😂
I have gone fishing after watching their videos and nearly IMMEDIATELY caught a fish using what I learned!
Haha I was thinking the same thing . I buy two of everything they show in their videos. I love the brands they use that I never heard of until I seen their videos two years ago.
Good morning all you Tactical Bassers! 👍🎣

Hey Tim very helpful I know you're going to think I'm a knuckle head but in the past I just can't seem to ever get bit on these swimbaits. Maybe because I'm bank fishing but I don't see how that would matter.but anyway I'm going to get a little two seater boat from bass pro shops and a trolling motor and a mini power pole and a fish finder. But thank again for all this great information. GOD bless you and matt's families your pal fisherman Mike from Missouri.
Thanks!
I've caught alot of spots on Beaver Lake in tough conditions with that Okishira screw/spark shad combo. Truly a killer.
The smallmouth kill it on the creeks here in Kentucky too. I even have a video of a bird snatching mine outta the water back in march lol
Nice job Tim - almost a flowchart or decision tree for using finesse swimbaits. This video was very clear on how I can apply and refine these baits and presentations to my lake conditions. Nothing extra, just the juice!
Thank you for never being clickbait!
I have falling in love with BFS fishing. My favorite rods are Megabass. Pop-X for ponds 1 power,Cliff Thrilling 2 power, all around, Bait Finesse 4 power bottom contact & some moving baits, Daiwa BLX ml a little heavier but a great all around rod. I love my setups with 3 Daiwa JDM reels(can spool them with my thumb off & 3 gram bait). 1 Alderbaren bfs reel( doesn't throw as light a bait but has a heavier drag) smooth as silk. When I bass fish now, I don't carry a spinning rod in my boat. Thanks for sharing Tim.
I never knew the line tie angle mattered that much in action of the bait. Awesome tips here Tim 🙌🏽
Use a loop knot and thank me later
@@BrothaAustin I just watched a vid on how to the other day. I need to try it.
Tim, One of your better recent presentations, helping to clarify differences in the motion of these baits.
If you guys did a monthly subscription box I would be all in for sure.
I never really thought about it, but I love the fact that keitech (swing Impact fat) color coded their swimbait sizes. Just now realizing that I know what size they are just by the color all the way up to 5.3
Oh man! How i would absolutely love a video about all the different line tie arrangements!
Jigs and all!
Something that they recommend is Sunline assassin fluorocarbon. I just recently picked some up and I couldn't be happier. This is far and beyond any line I've ever used. It is so surprisingly smooth, easy to cast and fairly abrasive resistant. So I'll say this is my favorite recommendation I've tried.
Good stuff. 🤙🏽 They’re all over the shad right now by me. 😎 I’ve been loving the Strike King Rage Swimmers lately, they seem to last a little longer than the Keitechs.
New tactical underspin helped win my first event of the year! Good looks.
So much great information, I just started a new long list for my next Tackle Warehouse order! Awesome underwater footage, really helps to understand the differences between the swim baits.Tim I have to say this is one of your best videos yet, Thank You!
Good tips thank you !!!
I know that underwater footage and editing is a lot of work, but keep it up! That visual is amazing to explain things and further sets you apart!!
That Okishira screw head with the spark shad is killer! I have a video of a bird snatching mine outta the water back this spring
Thank you an excellent presentation today. I’m embarrassed that I didn’t figure out how to screw the bait onto your new swim head. Next order. 😊
A great alternative to the Easy Shiner or the Swamer is the OSP Dolive Shad swimbait.
I've been killing it with the guppy head and 3" Megabass spark shad.
Good stuff for Dale Hollow.👍😀❤️🎣
Good morning everyone!!! Thanks Tim for the great video as always
EXCELLENT video EXCELLENT information
Jig / Hook advice for the larger 5 inch would be helpful. Assume the best option there is a 8/0 or 9/0 rigged weedless. I'm new to the bigger swimbait game. I"ve already semi wasted money on TW buying the wrong stuff. I'd key in on best sizes in the tackle shop but everything is always sold out.
A good rule of thumb is a 1/3 of the bait should be hook. 4/0 owner beast hook or 5/0 in other swimbait hooks works for me on 5" baits. Switch out any screw locks to the large size owner cps springs because they won't rip the core out of the head.
I have 9 different swimbaits and 4,5,6,7 different heads in 3,4 different colors and 2-3 different weights. It's a really simple system 😆
What would be the best color to imitate a blueback herring
Try a 2/0 g-lock hook with a 4in easy shiner swimbait. You can slow roll that dude and it'll run straight as an arrow. Works great for me
Another great video thanks,
One time i used the 3/16 guppy head to bump bottom / rocks and that thing just kept coming along ticking like a underspin. Very eye opening on applications for the guppy head. At first I only used the 1/8 for suspended fish
Awesome tips Tim!
I have to stop watching your channel. You make me buy too much stuff. 😂😂
Good morning
Haha. Good evening
It would be awesome if the recommended jigs were next to the trailers on here.
You guys need to try the alpha angler clutch rod for finesse Swimbaits. I did a review myself. The most ungodly rod for this technique
Hey Tim any suggestions for a weedless version?
I love the owner flashy swimmer with the ewg hooks. The 3/0 size with the kaitech 4in easy shiners is money for me! They have a 1/0 for the smaller stuff.
I just got into fishing recently, and I need lures. Can you please put the links to the lures in the comments or description? Thank you!
Do you find that fishing the Magdraft is more of a spring technique or summer , Fall swimbait?
What do you keep all of the clam shell packaging in so it isn’t a nightmare?
Are you guys still throwing the Huddleston swim bait in Tennessee?
What color spark shad? I don’t see the link. Thanks!
good morning east coasters
morning
Good morning west coasters
Are there any weedles belly weighted hooks for the 2.8-3.3” keitechs that you know about?
1/0 Owner flashy swimmer might work. Just take off the blade if you don't want the underspin
Do you ever glue your line knots?
I don’t know why, but I can never seem to catch fish on an under spin. Used them several times. I can be catching them regularly with the swim bait, then switch to an under spin with the same size bait and nothing. I fished them more or less the same. Anyone else had that experience?
Hey tactical bassin any tips for a fishing channel that just started. Anything helps
Do what others don't. That always gets me. Curiosity always killed the cat. 🎣
@@MooseKnuckle8 Thanks for the tip i really appreciate it 👍
What is your go too fishing knot for all baits?
I haven’t even caught a bass yet.
