Fishing A New Lake - Best Tricks To Find Fish!

- Опубликовано: 15 май 2022
- Come along as Matt explores a brand new lake! He's got one day to find fish and put together a pattern. Learn how to break down your own lake as he explains his mindset about best locations, bait selection, how different species of bass position, and more!
Showing up to a new lake is always intimidating. Doing it without mapping is even scarier! But Matt was determined to learn this lake and put together a pattern to catch quality bass. Watch the highs and lows as he struggles, breaks off fish, then turns the corner and begins dialing in a pattern for bigger bass. Its a fun day on a new fishery that we'll be sure to return to in the future!
Below you'll find links to the exact baits and gear Matt was using in the video. We've included his exact colors, sizes, etc... so you can see exactly what he was using. We've also included some of the rods and reels he used to catch these fish throughout the day. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

There's a great lesson to be learned here, grind it out. Instead of going home or going somewhere else take what you know and try different things until you figure out what works.
Those days I have to grind it out on my home lake are some of the best days you have!!!!!! Figuring out new things and patterns, spots, all you learn by not catching. Then the puzzle pieces click together and you go home smiling and wiser!!!!! That's what keeps me going back is the unknown if I'll catch one or not.
100%. Last time I was on a lake for the first time, fished from 6AM to 3PM with one fish that got off then all of a sudden found the right bite. So satisfying.
I almost gave up on a lake I've been at the past 2 weeks, today I nailed a nice 3 pounder on some lillies, consistency is key!! Thanks for the video and thanks for the lesson Frank H
The teaching in the last few minutes of this video is the kind of stuff that others would charge big bucks for whereas Tacticalbassin just asks for a like and subscribe in order to make more of these super informative videos possible! 🙌
Your reactions to the fish on this new lake are exactly what it's like fishing our local lakes. 😆
I see them. I give them what the want. They laugh at me. 😂😂😂♥️♥️♥️🎣🎣🎣
I think bass are smarter than we give them credit for and on pressured smaller fisheries they learn fast.
I mean they fall for stuff and I do thankfully catch em but it's not like some of the lakes and ponds I see on RUclips where bass hit everything.
The challenge is pretty exhilarating and when you DO slam a hog it's really rewarding!!!
Thanks for the informative and enjoyable content!
I absolutely love fishing new water! It gives me a chance to test out all the things I've learned. And sometimes I find that I got it right, other times I realize I still have a lot to learn.
Time on the water is our best teacher.. I always keep track of what I did right or wrong or what I should have done instead of what I did. I try not to ever get stuck using 1 or 2 techniques.
Thanks for keeping it real Matt. Showing the tough days as well as the great ones.
Love seeing these ones, really enjoy seeing how you guys approach new lakes and adapt when things don't work from the beginning. Ended up getting a 4lber on a frog yesterday!! Been having a ton of success this year and I gotta say most of it is because of the tips you guys have continued to give year after year. Appreciate everything the Tactical Bassin family has given us and all that is still to come, Thanks so much!!!
Thank you from South Georgia! I really enjoy watching on the water, figuring it out video's. Great job!
This is one of my all-time favorite episodes. Great job, Matt.
Always learn so much from watching y’all…esp in vids like this. Really appreciate you acknowledging the frustration that is bass fishing. Great work.
Good stuff as usual. Appreciate you and Tim for sharing your knowledge, and helping guys like me become more versatile anglers.
Another absolute clinic put on by Matt on how to approach a new lake! Great video guys!
Love these kinds of videos from you guys. Seeing how others break down water and choose their baits is, as other commenters have said, priceless info. Thanks for all you guys do.
Great video. I love fishing new lakes and some of them are large enough that it takes more than one day to really figure them out . Just have to break them down piece by piece over time to see what you have.thats the challenge and the fun of fishing.
absolutely love this type of video Matt
Love the adventure and what a beautiful lake
Thank you, Matt!
👍👍 Very helpful video, a technique didn’t work at random but letting ur self go full circle when it just made sense did the trick
I love these views of your thought process. Thank you
I need more videos like this!! Thank you!
Caught my first Dark Sleeper Smallmouth the other day at Lake Champlain. Thanks for the tip on trying it. He crushed it off the bank!
Matt your the best, if I could only have 1 fishing channel to watch for the rest of my life it would be you guys. And it's not even close.
Great lesson I personally needed to learn once again. Thank you.
I enjoy these kind of videos. Figuring out the pattern in new water
Thanks again guys!
This video was for people like me right now thank you
Nicely done! I enjoy all the content.
Thank you for your videos, I recently entered the world of fishing because my boyfriend loves it, I never thought I would like it so much and with your videos I have learned a lot. Greetings. 💞
Love the Santa laugh, “love the bite” good stuff! Makes me want to fish
Great video! Way to stay after it!
It feels good to be this early Matt! Always hyped to see when my phone pings a notification with a new TacticalBassin video!🎣
Very best style of video, ty
this was a great episode matt :D ya they were dinky but you got to laugh and a day on the lake laughing is better than a day on the lake breaking rods out of frustration lol.
Excellent stuff. Thx
Yall definitely need to come back to that lake. I know it'll be even better next time.
Awesome video! Please do more like this where you gotta figure it out on the fly.
Great fishing 🎣
I started taking fishing seriously 4 years ago, and I can't thank you guys enough for the knowledge you have provided for me, and I'm sure thousands others. I'm the fisherman I am now thanks to you and a handful of others on youtube. Keep grinding.
I learned that when I stopped horsing them in like a mad man I started landing a lot more fish,,from the looks here,,you should give it a try Matt
Matt once again putting a whooping on them with the Conquest 842c X Aldebaran combo on light line...one of my favorites as well!
Wassup man love your videos
More vids like this please
Man i would love for yall to break down Hartwell. Esp during the summer and off shore
Whenever fish don't Bite anything I'm throwing, I break out the fluke. Gets em every time!
No doubt, same!
I've been sight fishing shallows with those eyesurrender x tactical bassin amber lenses and I've been outfishing all my buddies love those glasses ! Love that they come apart so they won't break top notch gear at an affordable price 👌 👏
Awesome!! We're so glad you're enjoying them 👊🏻
This month has been the toughest month of fishing for me in a while
I've had 3 epic days with a lipless, atleast 60 green girls with a couple brown girls. Lost alot of 6th sense quakes tho...
In the northeast it's been tough! Weather has been colder than usual and now it's going to be 90 this weekend.
Love that nose-hooked fluke technique. Better hookups than T-rig, when I can get away with it in light cover.
I gotta break out the dark sleeper soon. Or any of the baits I’ve purchased this winter 😂 sometimes I think I buy em just to stare at em and keep the crank tied on
Tackle addiction is real....
Well back here near my home lakes here in ky for family stuff and all I can think about is dang it I should have driven lol. On plus side I found me some mag drafts . 🎉
I noticed the same thing, lately I've not been getting bites on any soft plastic worm. I haven't tried swim bait, but observation tells me it's probably the way to go, as I've seen them literally chasing baitfish out of the water.
Wow how interesting, I pre fished a lake yesterday that I had never been to and still got no idea, really don't know if I'll do the tourny next weekend, boy do I need help
Are you doing braid to the 7lb leader on that baitcaster? I've had problems trying super light line on bait casters with the line getting caught up in the spook. Thanks for the video, awesome job!
Fun.
When you got to the running water it look like us catching skipjacks on jigs lol
Have you tried the larger fluke baits for bigger bass? Thank you for the tips!
Even on ur bad day, ur catching more than me, 😂.
Dude we have a lake like that here. I’ve thrown everything known to man. They just look at it and go on. Only way I’ve found to catch em is deep crankin.
Can you please give the thunder cricket chatter bait a try and make a video about chatterbaits in where when and best time of year! I just would love tacticalbassin take on that chatterbait specifically
Well I'll be....Matt is human!
LOL
As usual, great video!
🔥🔥🔥🔥
I want to have smallies and spots in my water.Easier to catch then Florida strain for sure!
Matt, what setup were you using for the Swimbait? It looked like a Tranx 300 but what gear ratio were you using and what was the length of the rod? I appreciate the information
You can tell how passionate he is about fishing when it sounds like he about to cry when he sees a monster. We all do it.
Let's get it
That feeling..
How long of a leader do you normally use for jig fishing?
I have a lake near me that was a gravel pit in the early 70’s then It was under private ownership as a pay to fish lake now it’s a county parks recreational lake water is crystal clear and I have seen legit 10+ northerns ( I’m in Ohio) and they are the most elusive fish I have ever seen if you could catch a mondo there Matt you would be the fishing god…
Was fun watching you figure out this mystery lake. You mentioned it may be pressured. It seems like all lakes are pressured. I was the only person on Chilhowee at times years ago, now there are tournaments on it all the time.
Good 👍
Please come to NW Arkansas..... I cannot figure the fish out here. I'm begging you!
Love the videos
The lake your on speed is key deep cranks and fast jerk baits you can have a great day
Reminds me a little of Carters Lake in Georgia. Carters Lake is the deepest lake east of the Mississippi. It's extremely tranquil with absolutely no houses or docks on it. I would love to see you guys take a trip there and fish thier crystal clear water. Hardly ever stained. Several waterfalls as well. I'm going Tuesday and Wednesday let me know if you want to go. :-) it's only about an hour to an hour and a half from where you guys live.
carters is a great lake
Man that looks like watauga lake here in TN?
Was this smith mountain lake in VA?
What does nose hooking a fluke do for you when throwing a fluke on a baitcaster?
any suggestions on a very tainted lake that only has bass and stocked with trout? I don't see any bluegills or minnows. I've fished it for about 20+ hours and still no bass.
An "autochart with a zero lines card" video would be great!
Really wish yall would come down to Alabama and try the Pickwick smallmouth or the Coosa river spots!!!
We did Pickwick 3 years ago before moving and have dreamt about making it back every day since 👍🏼
@@tacticalbassin I saw the video and wish to see yall back here. You really need to get on the Coosa river lakes. I've caught spots in Smith, Warrior river, Lanier, and others but those Coosa spots are so different and bite year round
@@Mjones8383 where is a good place to stay on Pickwick with a boat? TB and the people that watch have always been very helpful.
@@DHW448 McFarland park area has camping plus many boat friendly hotels
I usually catch largemouth bass in my middle to large sized pond but since the water is over 83 now in Southern Florida the bite has stopped almost completely. I have tried top water, crank baits, swim jigs, chatter baits, square bills, senkos and even curly tail Yamamoto grubs on jig heads and the bite has been off for well over a week. Tried morning, day and night and I am surprised that no fish are biting. On a fish finder, I see the fish are a bit deeper in 15-25 feet depths (the pond averages 15-25 feet within feet of the shore line and has two deep holes of 40-45 feet and 50-53 feet. Some fish are in weeds along the edges as I see them move when I get close but they aren’t hitting poppers or frogs. Any recommendations?
After several days, I finally hooked a small 1.5 lb bass on a baby bass lipless crankbait about 10 feet off shore in about 14-15 feet of water.
How do you work those big wedge-tails when the water warms up?
chuck and wind. they dont have much action besides the subtle tail kick, and you cant impart much action on them with your rod. they work best on just a steady retrieve above or next to grass lines and ambush points.
Missing fish after they smash your lure is the worst... like a kick in the nuts... Hahahahahaha
The best smallmouth you will ever experience
South Holston?
First!🙌🏻👍🏻🎣
First reply to your first comment!👊💥🎣😂
Send me a link to a smith lake alabama video please
Are we ever going to see the footage from South America? I am beginng to doubt it.
@Tacticalbassin
See. You figured it out, off of the shad spawn. It just took a little time. In a lot of respects, the puzzle is the fun part of fishing, when you get good enough at it.
Come fish lake hartwell or one of the herring lakes around the Carolinas I’ve never seen y’all try to break a lake like that down
There's an actual town flooded under that lake, all the houses and buildings foundations are still above the dirt, the roads are still up. You can Google it and find the location. The lake dried to a severely low level a few years back and all of it was visible.
Interesting history.. So are the barges there because people fear the place getting flooded again or because they can't buy land to build on?
Is it lake lanier?
@@williamgould7807 no the town was flooded in formation of the lake itself, they moved the houses but left the foundation and older buildings
@@Matthiaskyriakidis if it's the lake I'm thinking, it's not. It's a small lake in east Tennessee
@@Mjones8383Parksville lake? I live in Hamilton county so if it’s not Parksville, what is it?
Matt, do the shad spawn all night during the full moon on a clear night. I had a spawn Saturday morning and threw everything and never got bit nor did I see any bass in them, I know there are fish in this creek also. I just think they fed all night and were do e feeding, is that logical?????
I think so, we have smelt up here in nys, my dad and I went out on one of the warmest days yet, conditions were perfect for a good day, partly cloudy, 5-10mph wind with the start of some high pressure weather but it was the morning after a full moon and we knew the smelt were running the night before. The fish just acted tired and full, i literally got the sense that they were up working/feeding all night. I had something move my line about 3ft with a ned tied on and i think it was a bass just moving it out of his bubble just like we’ve seen on underwater footage. We threw every technique we could and almost every jerk bait in the boat. Haven’t been double skunked like that in forever
I was out last evening, 5/16, and found some shad schooling in a cove. This place gets overlooked because in the summer it's dead water, but it supports lots of life in the spring. I was able to get a few decent fish using a white/clear glitter fluke that was of similar size. The color contrast seemed to help, not outrageous but noticeable. Also, as I've learned on this channel, I tried to have it a bit lower in the water column doing its fluke thing. It was at the start of that night feeding window.
@@mrkmkr99 down lower is where the action is right now, probably why ive been doing better with a fluke than a jerk bait, i don’t have to worry about getting snagged
Bass prefer 72⁰ temps. They are most active at that temp
This is more like a Debo Dink Fest
Is that Debo or Matt? Lol
Matt how do you keep from getting lost on a new lake. Bassmd
What lake is this?
Great video idea! I recently moved and have been having trouble finding fish in these new spots… can you do more vids like this at different points of the year? Beginning of summer/middle of summer, etc. Would be really helpful
What lake?
But like how do I even advance down the path of locating more fish when I’m struggling to find fish to begin with 😢
Could you mention the lake name?
Whats up with all the "tiny houses" in the water. Never seen anything like that.
You mention that you would have been there earlier if you aware of the water temp. Please can you give me a small explanation? From beginner bass angler from South Africa
It’s because that warmer water has made the shad spawn start. Shad spawn is in low light conditions, so early morning, and the bass love it.
