I love how Matt and Tim always say they love to keep it simple as they pull out 6 different categories, 2 styles in each category, and 3 different colors of each.. here's 36 different options.... gotta love it
@@tacticalbassin haha I’d love to see the complicated version. Go lay the wood for us because here in CA we are all still recovering from these atmospheric rivers. Bite has been very tough .
Would love to see a new swimbait review soon. I know there has been some swimbaits come up on the new item page that I’m sure you guys had to have got. The Imakatsu Lazy swimmer and the owner burikin are two I’m interested in. The new Nacho looks cool too. Like a little baseball with a tail
More absolutely SOLID information for free! Men used to have to fish for years to learn all this stuff the hard way or pay guides to teach them over many trips!
I hope the atv square bill is everything you say cause that’s gonna be my co angler moving bait. It pays to have baits that are hard to snag up. I have no doubt that your not wrong though. You two are the greatest.
Hello guys and gals, my wife and I really love your program. I'm in my mid 80's and always fished and loved the outdoors. We live in Colorado and our summers are very short. So, since we are retired we no longer get out. Making this short you all take us with you on your great video's. Yes! Just like being out there with you so we are always looking forward to the next one. Keep up the wonderful trips and be safe. Love you all! James and Inga Smith!
Even though the mission was not completed, I still learned a lot. Tyler thank you for the information and your lake breakdown idea of trying the median size creek first. I will use this in my future fishing trips.
GOOOOOOOOD MORNIIN' EVERYBODY!!! Yeah, I know its Monday, thought Id try and brighten the mood a little bit. Talked to a guy in his 70's yesterday doing the hmmm thing on a flash mob jr. He said he had never seen or used one. Told him flat out, get it, go to Tactical Bassin A Rigs on youtube, these guys are no non-sense and in my opinion the best teachers in the business. We stood in the fishing section for 30 mins watchin yall🤣. He subscribed right there. Great subject today Matt, will apply as soon as I can get out there.
Love you videos. You 2 have helped me out so much with my video content. Plus using your TECHNIQUES have gotten me my 1st MLF WIN as a Co-Angler. And it was my 1st event ever as well. You guys have been a huge help
Thanks!! This was perfect timing. I'm taking my Yak out for the first time this year on Saturday. Been studying the lake map and watching your older videos for how to read a lake map (from when you first moved to Tennessee) I've got a plan in place now and I'm so pumped to get out there. Fishem hard boys!
One angle I haven’t heard you guys touch upon is tidal waters and how it affects how bass move and feed. Living near the Chesapeake Bay and trying to understand it has me frustrated with how hit and miss it can be. Thank you for all your content. You guys really are the best.
Thank you, Matt; these "seasonal" videos have to be difficult given the geographic diversity of your audience, but I think you did a great job of explaining how to formulate a plan whenever spring actually arrives in your area. My part of Florida was spared any prolonged "cold" spells this year, and fishing has been quite good for me as a result. There's only so much water I can cover from the bank, so it's mainly been soft plastics (sticks and tricks have been very good) and jigs. Hoping that spring arrives soon for everyone, and good luck out there!
Matt, I really like how you explain your knowledge of the transitions That Bass make oh, I've been watching you guys for years and my bass fishing has gone from Catching many fish 2 tons of fish and I can't say enough how much I appreciate it thanks and keep it up guys you're doing a great job love watching your videos.
I use those shimano jerkbaits and I LOVE them. I work a jerkbait at least try everywhere and 50% of the time i get one at least. Shimano did real good there
I’m not sure where to start on my home lake, Lake Norman, in NC. It’s a huge lake and a lot of it looks good. Y’all should come over and show us how it’s done.
Y'all need to start a new series where you take your talent on the road to hard and overpressured waters... would be an interesting challenge yeeewww 🔥🎣💯🤙💪
Another absolutely great video Matt, you described exactly what has been happening on my waters yo a T. Been using Red-eye Shad, 1/4 oz Cotton Cordell Super Spot, Zoom Speed Shad in S Africa and have been killing them now for 2 months. They are just now moving into spawning spots and settling in. Thanks for another on the money video.
I live in California in the PNW on the coast about an hour and a half below the Oregon border. We have this freshwater lagoon in this series of lagoons, that is the only lagoon out of the 3 that is freshwater and not brackish because it never breaches with the ocean like the other two do, even though it is literally 50 yards away, like the 101 is down to two lanes at this point, and the lagoon is on one side, the ocean on the other. All that to say there are bass in it, the one place close to bass fish, other nearest is 3 HR drive away. The lagoon cooler most of the year, as the temperature outside never goes higher that 80, and it's windy, and there is just a little bit of grass and a little bit of toolies here and there, basically no structure, as the bottom just goes down like a bowl. I cannot find the fish anywhere. The are trout in the lagoon and very few blue gill, and catfish in this lagoon, and that is all as far as food that I know of, maybe crawfish. Tried jigs, cranks, lipless, square bills, spinners, chatter baits, senko, jerks, literally everything, shallow and deep, no luck so all. Water can't be any higher than 58-60 degrees. It's actually pretty pressured, as again it's the only water with bass in it for a good distance. It's called freshwater lagoon. Any help would be very appreciated
Hope that you guys see this. I will be going camping and fishing a smaller lake called Rocky Mountain PFA in Rome, GA. The lake is a shallower lakes with the deep spots only getting about 30 to 35 feet and not really having many secrondary points just main points with some shallow coves and standing timber. Any tips for trying to catch fish there as the water will be warming up the whole week?
Great video! I often wonder about the applicability of bass fishing videos to lakes in my area. I live in Western Washington state and fish for small mouth in a man made impoundment called Lake Tapps. I would be thrilled to hear what you think about Tapps Matt. I recently upgraded my boat to a 20' and I can't wait to smash some big small mouth this season. Thanks
Love this video. Thank you Matt and Tim you guys are always giving us great information. I have definitely implemented some of the info you guys have given and it’s worked or helped me become a better angler. You guys rock.
Speaking on a lipless bite. When I lived in Indiana, we'd go out this time of year and absolutely burn a Rattle-Trap. Back when I was there, the ice stayed in for much longer than it does now. A few weeks after ice out, it was the deal. I'm sure it still works to this day. Those fish get shallow on sunny days taking advantage of the warmth of the sun hitting a dark bottom. We'd catch em from 2-4 ft deep with the Rattle-Traps. I'm sure there are much better lipless options to use for that now, but if all else fails that RT gets bit up north this time of spring.
Great tips Matt, really appreciate it the work you guys do and look forward to this CA weather cooperating so we can get the fish to cooperate as well for pre-spawn!
Hey Matt and Tim! Always look forward to a new video throughout the week from you guys! I really want to get into crankbait fishing in ponds and I got a lot of super shallow 0-3 ft squarebills. The bottom of most places I fish are usually all mud or slime with some rocks. I keep getting hung up and end up losing so many baits which is normal I guess for bank anglers but I want to build confidence in them. What types of retrieves or modifications do you recommend? Thanks!
Can you comment on the positioning for the prespawn and spawn for fish in tidal rivers? An example of a tidal river is the Hudson River. I imagine that the CA Delta is also a tidal river.
Thank you for your videos, I find them very informational. I currently live on lake murray just west of Dreher Island State Park. I see all kinds of bass tournaments launch from this area. Ive been out trying to fish about 10-12 hour this month. I purchased alot of lures based off your videos but unable to get any sorts of bites. I don't have much in the way of electronics other than downscan. What would be some areas around me that look good on the map, and what kind of water reservoir is the lake?
Hi you guys are great we fish the same waters and I been trying to get a better grasp on targeting throughout the year and were coming into the most active time of year as far as I'm aware. So I also watched Tim's video on spring bass locations and now have a few questions about Richland creek dayton tn. I hear you both talk about points and lowlands and different terms. So what is richland creek and how do I decide what I'm in as far as a lowlands or a delta. Next question is does fishing in these different types of areas affect where they decide to stop or hang around I looked at a topographical map like Tim said and marked a few places I believe would be spots to try but dont know if I fully understand all the points and secondary points would love any help or advice that you could give on Richland creek area thanks again for the help you guys put out here.
Great video Matt. Seems like it’s been so warm this year that we have fish already on beds here in va. Just caught a 7.85 2 days ago and she had a little tail ware. Thanks for the information!
Any thoughts on where to target for lower Suncook lake NH 03225? Its less than half frozen at this point and I’m itching to get after them. Only ice left is in the dead center deepest area.
How about a vid on shallow rez with blasted rock bottom and dead heads everywhere. If you touch bottom your lure is gone. Lac des quinze northern Quebec specifically lol. We bought kayaks a few years back cause the water level changes 3 feet up or down in a week.
I plan on fishing this local lake this year which was once an old quarry. Small and has extremely clear water with largemouth of all sizes. My plan is to throw bigger swimbaits. Should I throw more natural tones or something with more pop to it. Brighter bolder colors? Thank you 🙏
Matt - curious, Moondust senko or watermelon with blue flake? Moondust looks more like a laminate while watermelon blue flake looks more like what you’re holding in the video.
I live on Long Island Ny and have tried fishing a popular lake here called lake Ronkonkoma with not much luck. I’m curious if u could take a quick look on say google maps and give me some advice if u were goin to fish tomorrow at this lake, some spots you would try? Thank you and love all your advice and videos
I would love some help on Nickajack lake! My dad and uncle are visiting for the next 10days for the pre spawn. We spent 8 hours today around and south of 24 with just a couple 2.5 pounders to show. Water temps was anywhere from 54-58 depending on what cove. Any help at all???? Please help.
Where are they on Chick right now? I've tried them suspending, lay downs, back of slues, I'm kayak fishing out of a Titan12. 3 evenings a week???? Just need to find em, seems like they're gone?
Do you see the effect of Bass Tournaments catching bass and driving them long distances away to a weigh-in location from where they were staged in good numbers to spawn?
Could you please look at these 3 pics of wallenpaupac lake and give me a opinion of a few places to go this spring or summer to go to to find large mouth in this mostly smallmouth lake.
Matt, between the Daiwa Tatula, Dobyns Fury, Bass X, and Mojo Bass rods, which one would you choose for a truly do it all spinning rod? Medium or Medium Light? Fast or Extra Fast?
I’m a beginner bass fisherman. I had a bass at the bank just kinda swimming around and he would sometimes reveal himself. I threw everything I had passed him (senko, swimbait, crankbait) and reel toward him but nothing. Any advice?
Ive been doing this for weeks and Nada. We had a small wave of males on the full moon but my fish have gone from 49degrees to 78 back to 49. These fish are super bi polar right now and I know you know what im sayn in Tenn.
I fish the Potomac. Would love to see them do a video on it specifically because it is different than anything else they talk about. See if they can catch anything.
@@Shad0wKlown yeah. I'm over the bridge on the eastern shore MD. I've fished local ponds and millponds but have never really fished the rivers for largemouth. Just Rockfish. (Wye, Chester, Choptank) We really don't have those huge lakes around here. I've never been out on the Potomac.
You say some people don't want to power fish? 🤷 🤪 I guess!?!? 😂 Buddy says, "Bro they're smashing on Glides" and you answer, "I'd rather fish a Ned" said noone ever, in their right mind! 😂
I love how Matt and Tim always say they love to keep it simple as they pull out 6 different categories, 2 styles in each category, and 3 different colors of each.. here's 36 different options.... gotta love it
You should see the complicated version 😂 (I have 6 swimbaits on deck as I head out to the lake this morning)
I usually start off with 2 or 3 rods on deck and by the end of the day my lockers are empty😂😂
@@tacticalbassin haha I’d love to see the complicated version. Go lay the wood for us because here in CA we are all still recovering from these atmospheric rivers. Bite has been very tough .

What would lake norman in NC be? I feel like it would be a highland. But I'm not sure.
I agree blue glitter means bluegill
Matt, if fish are spawning in Mildred, where would they set up prespawn?
I wish you could make the end of June come faster for this to work for us up north
Matt, I have a spot in mind where there is alot of cattails but there is no cover coming out over the water for shad should I still fish it the same?
Do you see the effect of Bass Tournaments catching bass and driving them long distances away to a weigh-in location from where they were staged in good numbers to spawn?
Could you please look at these 3 pics of wallenpaupac lake and give me a opinion of a few places to go this spring or summer to go to to find large mouth in this mostly smallmouth lake.

Good morning Matt a fish at Chicahominy lake in Virginia seem to have a hard time locating or finding fish in this lake, any help would be appreciated
I’m a beginner bass fisherman. I had a bass at the bank just kinda swimming around and he would sometimes reveal himself. I threw everything I had passed him (senko, swimbait, crankbait) and reel toward him but nothing. Any advice?
How long of a leader you normally use..?
Do spotted bass have similar spring patterns?
What about rising water from winter pool to regular pool during the spring does it affect the spawn?
I’m fishing rollins lake in Colfax ca what do you know about this lake?
Man, I cannot wait for the water to warm up so these fish start moving. I’m up north in Canada, water is still cold cold here.
Matt, what would be your "go to" shaky head hook?
What about a topwater? Such as buzzbait or spook type
Ive been doing this for weeks and Nada. We had a small wave of males on the full moon but my fish have gone from 49degrees to 78 back to 49. These fish are super bi polar right now and I know you know what im sayn in Tenn.
How about shallow river fish, similar baits?
I hope everyone here catches their pb this spring! Best time of the year to do it!
Just for clarification on the Antidote, you prefer the slow sink and not the super slow sink? Or did you mean the super slow sink?
I personally prefer the slow rather than the super slow.
@@tacticalbassin Gotcha, thanks!
Does fishing during spawning on a small city lake hurt the bass population?
While looking for the fish staging up to spawn what water temp am I looking for?
“Welcome back to Taaaactical Bassin..” my wife hears this three times a day 😂😂😂😂😂
When you say the fish move up into the shallow water, how shallow are we talking about? 1-3ft, 3-5ft, how shallow is shallow?
Matt is it true the north west side of you water to spawn. Bassmd
@tacticalbassin
Do you ever fish brackish water off Chesapeake bay rivers in Maryland?
I fish the Potomac. Would love to see them do a video on it specifically because it is different than anything else they talk about. See if they can catch anything.
@@Shad0wKlown yeah. I'm over the bridge on the eastern shore MD. I've fished local ponds and millponds but have never really fished the rivers for largemouth. Just Rockfish. (Wye, Chester, Choptank) We really don't have those huge lakes around here.
I've never been out on the Potomac.
What about Lake Erie/ Small mouth?
I fish falls of the nuse lake in n.c. . And I can never get it right . Need help . For years . And years .
Do you still use the blood knot most of the time to connect your main line to a leader?
Yes 👍🏼
@@tacticalbassin Thank you
That's my spring one two punch I glide bait fish then turn around and jerkbait if I pull the fish out the grass
I’m still in struggle mode. Water temp sitting at 50. Can’t wait for the warmer water.
It was 27 degrees here in Michigan all weekend, so sick of this winter, had a follower tho on a Berkley stunna
Can the river guys get some love?
For me reading natural lakes are much easier to read and learn where fish will be than deep man made lakes in spring.
Blue light travels deeper into the water column blue light reflects off blue baits making them more visible. At least my thoughts on it.
You should mention the difference between male and female bass, some people may not know!
that is a map of jocassee
You say some people don't want to power fish? 🤷 🤪 I guess!?!? 😂
