Bass behave differently in Winter. While we would expect to find them in the warmest water, they’re often hunting on the deeper, darker edges where they can use light to their advantage. Lure speed, lure color, and a few other retrieve tricks are also huge factors! If you want to be successful all Winter, it’s time to pay attention to the subtle details.
Below you’ll find links to the exact baits and gear Matt discussed in the video. He’s included his favorite sizes and colors for each lure, as well as some great rod and reel options for fishing them effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
