- Catching fish with finesse techniques can be really easy! But what about when its not? Subtle differences have huge impacts on these presentations. Today we're covering the baits and modifications that we use to consistently catch fish throughout the Winter months.
These aren't your every day finesse tricks! These are the fine details that make a difference in our personal fishing. From which jig head should go in each tube, to the ned rig with the most natural action. We rely on these subtle differences to give us the upper hand every time we hit the water.
Below you'll find links to the exact baits Matt discusses in the video. We've also included links to Matt's favorite finesse rods as well as some longer budget options to help you tip watch the next time you go fishing. All the links go to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

배스낚시를 한국에서 하고 있습니다 언젠가 한번 가보고 싶네요 지금 서울 근처는 모두 얼어붙어 낚시를 할 수 없네요 전문가의 멋지고 자세한 설명 감사드립니다
I gotta say that BFS reels are VERY underrated for finesse presentations, love using them! I know spinning gear is the preferred method, but there’s just something about using a bait caster with those finesse presentations for me.👊💥🎣
There's a reason in japan why they use it for flipping/pitching and stream fishing. Accuracy and power is key when the bite gets tough
I use the Curado BFS on a 7'6 light casting rod and it's a blast and very efficient! I don't own any spinning combos and haven't for a few years now.
@@IV-fad what rod are you using? I've been searching for a decent stick over 7ft in a light or med/light
Not underrated at all. The lack of options and only in recent years suppliers in the US have had a chance for people to buy them not from over sea.
Yes Sir...got a Dobyns Sierra 7ft fast 1 power and a Curado BFS reel a couple months ago. I've been really enjoying it so far. When the fish are slowed down that light setup is so much fun. 3 lb smallies are like a 10 lber on my regular setups.
You stole Tim's boat 😄 I love it thanks for the great advice as always. I edited my comment just to throw out there that with those longer budget options yiu chose, you now also have a sweet hair jig rod
"If it looks like this..... something has happened" 😆 quote of the year! Great video as always. Thanks for tips and your time!
Since I'm up at 0400 for work, I'll tell my husband "Hey I got a notification that Tactical Bassin has a new video up" LOL We are long overdue for some kayak fishing! We love watching you guy's..your always very informative! 👍☺
I watched your video a while ago about watching how your rod load's up and watching the rod tip... I can't afford to spend too much on a high end combo and with that tip you shared with watching the rod tip I've landed more fish that I guarantee I was missing before, thanks for the awesome info and tips,helps more than you will ever know!!
Especially the Kietech! Great video Matt.
Thanks Matt. You gents keep doing the most information out there. Sure glad you include mid level and budget tips. Keep up the good work
No BFS combo in description?
big thanks for this, gonna look for open water this weekend.
Great stuff, I always have a Dry Creek tube tied on all year long!!!
Matt, Your tip watching "tip" is outstanding. Especially at this time of year. Thank you
Great video as always Matt! That’s no joke about San Diego lakes and pressure. That’s where I cut my teeth bass fishing. I went once with a friend from church. A month later I was in his club fishing club tourneys and a year later had my Skeeter. Now I’m up by Chico near your old stomping grounds. Yours is the first RUclips channel I subscribed to and 4 years later still my main source for great info. Thanks to you and Tim for doing so much to help us all out here.
All of those Netbait "bomb" baits are great. The bombshot one, the Nedbomb one and the bigger 4 1/2" and 6 1/2" ones are awesome on a shakyhead! Love the floating aspect of the Netbaits
Regarding adapting to the cold, I think a big reason why the fishing improves on warmer days is that the more comfortable conditions make us more patient with working baits and less likely to overwork our lures. A single warm day or just a few of them in a row rarely significantly changes the water temperature. The fish do definitely react to it, but I think the effect on most anglers' mindsets can't be ignored.
I use the Berkeley fusion 1/8th oz jig with a 2 ot hook and a 2.8” keitech. I like the Berkeley fusion jig because the hook is very thick wire so it won’t bend even on a infinity pounder.
I have been finesse baitcasting for over 20 years ,I use the bps finesse baitcasters,bait casters, have 3 set up 1 6ft for jerkbaits the 2nd is a 5ft pistol grip for top waters and a 7-6 popping rod that I use jigs and texas rigs

Here’s the video of the 25 lb limit
@@clintonbruning I enjoyed your video, my pb was on a square bill also ,my bait looked like a peanut stuck on the inside of a waste basket ,I didn't have a scale but I estimate around 8lbs,landed her on my 7/6in popping rod with 6lb floro,
@@gregchilders7643 It's wild that those big fish take passes at small baits, but I guess elephants eat peanuts..... I'm not complaining!
Before spring hits you guys need to do a video on fishing flooded brush and trees. Pitching specifically but throw in a few search baits. Thanks you guys are the best.
I have an 8' 2" medium power/fast action spinning rod for the exact "tip-watching" you describe at the end of this video, as well as for longer casting of lighter finesse baits and for working the occasional spybait. Anyone who has done their fair share of almost any type of fishing knows when their target fish is getting 'frisky on the bait', and is about ready to take it. So just look for the wiggles, set the hook, and have fun!!!
Great tips Matt. I lost a bass last night that just barely pulled on the bait which snagged in weeds at the same time. Since I had a clump of weeds, I reeled in quickly only to realize last minute that a bass was holding on to my worm in the clump of weeds I had dragged back and let go at the bank 🥺. I did get another bass on a TRD Crawz and same thing, the fish loaded up but felt like a wet sock or clump of weeds. This time I popped the rod and set the hook 😉 We had a serious cold front in Florida that dropped the water temp quite a bit this last week and had the fish very lethargic and though the temperatures went back up, they still seem to be very slow moving so the Ned rig, Neko rig and slowly dragged weightless senko Texas rigged are the only baits working right now.
Hey Matt and Tim, I learned a ridiculous amount about fishing from the 2 of you. Not only bass, but catfish, crappie etc… drastically helped to step my fishing game up. Thanks! Random (Throwback) question to the both of you… Do you remember where you were during the 2007 Bassmaster event on ClearLake in the spring?
Excellent information. Very thorough.
Hi Matt: Great information. Thank you! Can’t wait until early ice out to try your recommendations. Stay safe, God Bless!
Down the rabbit hole on subtle technique is gold!...I gotta say I dont have the most confidence in a drop shot... 1 thing that confuses me is how long of a leader do you use in different scenarios?
Just upgraded my spinning rods this year and I can't stop hook setting into logs or stumps now lol. Hooksets aren't always free
Especially with those jerkbaits😅 lost 40 dollars in like 5 casts last year
Dead sticking is a very underrated technique, it also works very well if you have a limited are to fish.
I use that Netbaits Crush and Jr Crush...very similar to what you pulled out. I was catching fish deadsticking them last week when it was in the teens and twenties and when I went to the baitshop everyone said they didn't catch squat. Your Givin up the Juice here....hopefully guys won't pay attention....lol!
That buoyancy is so important...I literally rig at my house and try baits out in a big bowl of water.
Another one of great , one great about the length of the rod ,for cost.
Waking up at 3:30 am in cali to watch this rigging my mini flex ! 💪can't wait to see if I'll have to finesse with all these storms that hit california recently !
6’10 medium light and 6# floro is perfect for me. Ned’s rigs and 2.8 keitechs have brought me many long battles with big smallies
Super good advice on this one. I'm trying to do what you're talking about on BFS gear and have had pretty good success so far. I'm using straight fluorocarbon line in the 4 to 8 pound class. I use the Dobyns 740 rod on most bottom bumping lures and the 700 Dobyns on moving baits. I'm still experimenting allot but for the most part I just do with BFS as I did with spinning tackle. Thanks again for the great video!!
Hell yeah Michael! You and me both.
Thank you for all the videos you guys are the best.
Smallies love those small keitec baits as well as ned rigs. Never used these before sadly they just collecting dust in my tackle box
I have never been able to catch anything on those Z-man TRDs, but I have been able to wear them out on the Z- man Hula stickZ. They are taller and have little fingers on the end. I guess they are just enough to flow with the water and catch the attention of the fish. I’ll either pop them up, and keep the rod tip up while they sink, or slow drag them the way people do the TRD.
Thanks Matt. I do like tubes in winter. I think bass will hold a tube longer than neds and especially jigs.
Just curious if you have changed your swim jig style since the move to Tennessee. That big swim jig you throw doesn't seem to work in my waters.
netbait makes a tournament style tube as well, theyre pretty solid, i caught some slabs on them last winter. kinda surprised you didnt mention them since your bread n butter tube is a netbait.
Could you guys do a where, how & water depth for river fishing bass in the winter, please!
Very informative Matt, I have always had issues with winter fishing in the Midwest if its not iced over.
It would be interesting to see your opinions/ ideas on scents and impregnated baits in winter versus unscented .
Good info you guys do great job.
Thank you, Matt!
Really helpful, thanks
Hey Matt how are you doing still loving and learning from your and Tim’s content and I really appreciate this one in general because I’m trying to learn how to perfect drop shoting because I’m new in a fishing club and I’m fishing out the back of the boat so I love you guys videos😊 so I have a question from when you said when this technique is best that you know there’s fish there so if my boater stops anywhere does that means there fish there? Not trying to sound like a 7 year old lol I really want to catch fish every tournament where i don’t have to have fight for a wildcard spot in our club tournaments any advice will be very helpful and appreciated. Thanks again Matt for the advice and info
Excellent lesson from the 🐐!!!!
Thank you Matt!!!!!
Have you been using the Yamamoto floating Ned?
Your thoughts if you have please!
Thank you!
Solid information! Thanks Matt.
How’s that skeeter doing? Thanks for sharing your experience with us. Appreciate y’all. a

Z-man has a purple color coming out!
Nice video thanks for sharing.
Great work guys, just what I needed!
Excellent stuff as usual! Say, for throwing the 2.8 Keitech/guppy head, what rod would you recommend around $200-$250?
If you want to have a blast pick up a dobyns Sierra and kastking zephyr bfs combo, put some 6lb flouro on it and let it rip. Using a bait caster to throw tiny baits is so fun and makes it feel like you’re actually swimbaiting. Here’s a vid of me using that setup with the keitech and guppy head in Texas.
Here’s the link if you wanna check it out! ruclips.net/video/zSpC5Hn1Pzo/видео.html
@@clintonbruning Appreciate it! I haven't dabbled in BFS yet, but I think it's coming lol.
@@Twangtown7 it’s fun man. I’ve spent way too much in last year 💀😂
🍺Why not call it the Dirty jigs Matt Stefan guppy head? Luke Clausen finesse jig etc. Is there a “rule” that forbids you from mentioning the angler currently associated with the baits. Thanks in advance.
Thank you for making these videos
Random question how many rods do u own matt? The community needs this answer 😂.
Ayyye The Main Character…too smart my man
You should try the frostbite mini slayer for the ned. It’s killer, they also have a derby slayer and a dragon slayer I love those on underpins. Give it a shot you won’t be disappointed. There the same plastic just different sizes
I have to finesse fish in my lake year around to get bites And the rod I found that i like,
13 fishing "FATE black" Medium fast action 7'3" Spinning combo its green with a Cork handle its about $80 bucks and It's the number one budget Finesse rod I've ever had, I can feel things on this fishing rod that I thought was impossible to feel on a fishing rod
I was wondering if you can give an update on the Amazon trip video. Is it still coming?
I honestly thought the project had died but just the other day Tim had it back on the timeline. It looks like it's still going to happen!
That’s awesome.
Love all the videos you guys out put has helped me ton. The wife don't like them because of all the stuff I end up buying haha
Matt that info about hook/worm balance on DS rigs is a totally new thought for me as far as winter fishing, do you always nose hook in in the winter or would it work to wacky rig on a DS rig to get that slower fall and level suspended action?
Hi thank to you for this video, I don’t find the list of your swimbait you use in this video, do you tell me the name or the brand you use for the drop shot and the Ned rig style you used, thank again
Good advice as always gentlemen!
What's a good drop shot rod for 3/4 oz in a mid-range budget for fishing heavy current?
I was expecting this to be a Tim Little video. He’s the ned rig guy.
I’m looking at the st croix victory 7”10 hair jig rod because I do well with them, is that too long for these? Drop shot excluded because I rarely use it
Rock on matt
Great channel, do you guys fish on the tournament trail
Not anymore. We dedicate 100% of our time to teaching others how to fish 👍🏼
I'm surprise you guys never cover the "Child Rig", since Tim and you do a lot of ned rig fishing
this is basically my entire system for my heavily pressured from shore ponds I fish is south Texas most of these ponds are spring fed the water clarity is as clear as clear gets on the scale so much so My approach up to these ponds are half of these bait systems,.system being the key word when dealing with cold clear extremely heavily pressured water just the way you deliver the bait to the water can be the make or break when using any of these bait systems Matt is going over here and especially from shore in heavily pressured clear water ponds it's crrucial to use stealth mode, don't walk near the shoreline don't make a big splash on bait delivery use the lightest line and tackle you can everyone wants to know my secret to the monster bass I catch here and this is all of it in a nutshell yeah there are about a dozen more rigging systems and baits but, what it really comes down to is not alerting the fish in the ponds to my presence the delivery of the most natural bait presentations as stealthily as possible and if its one that thev have never encountered before bigger bonus, these are my tactics and ive perfected these methods by becoming a specialist I fished all but 5 days last year over 1,300 bass caught I was skunked 6 days out of 360 my secret recorded here in matts video comments section so if I really like you and I sent you this video because you wanted to know my secret I recorded here mainly because Matt is the most detail oriented when it comes to what it takes to have the highest rate of success I could find on you tube, the devil is in the details if you can execute all these determining factors I guarantee success or Matt will give you a million dollars being that he's the you tube fishing millionaire, lol, Matt I have to thank you for this because I really don't have the patience to teach someone all the little tedious attm details and how crucially important they all are for the highest success rate, if I make the least ammount of mistakes I'm always successful finesse angling is attn to detail this is what makes me the most successful angler in my area, and this is my secret. appreciate you Matt for the illustration
What small underspin would you recommend with the 2.8” swimbait?
I fish on the TN river in a Backwater and I do not have a boat and I cant get any decent bass to bite in the summer, can you help please?
I am new to drop shot fishing. You talk about wanting a slow fall, but if you have a tungsten wt Isn’t the fall already predetermined? You did not talk about deciding depth of the hook in relation to the wt on the bottom - sort of important for those of us not linked live action crt’s to show the bait going into the mouth of the fish. We’re you fishing the mosquito and slow sink bait with out any drop shot wt below it? Very confusing.
can you make a video on how to fish lakes that raise extremely fast all the lakes in California filled up so fast in a week the beginning of the year
Long time subscriber here, he actually has a couple, one of which is one of his “seminar” videos that he was doing at a tackle show.
If I remember correctly the basics were to fish super shallow because those fish were going to be there looking for food, they were not going to be out on structure but up in all the newly flooded brush and cover. I think the video was how to catch your personal best (there’s several with similar titles so look for the one where he is speaking to a crowd).
Are you in Tim’s boat? Or did you also get a new one?
Would you throw finesse in 2’ clarity?
Anyone recommend a line for curado bfs? 6 Lb tatsu? 8 lb power pro?
I glued a steel disk to my 7'6 zodias' butt the other day, it completely fixed the tip heaviness that the rod had before.
How do I see descriptions?
Well we got chocolate milk conditions now. With all our storms I'm sure a bunch of people do.
Tim do you fish a stupid tube at any time at all bassmd.
Get video love small tubes
I can never grasp how you guys are all bundled up then have flip flops or no shoes on

I prefer finesse fishing and I take the winters off.
