Jighead minnows dominate modern bass fishing, but they aren’t always the best way to get bit. BPT winner, longtime guide, and True Bass Swimbaits founder Ryan Salzman breaks down exactly when a boot-tail swimbait is the better tool—and the small rigging and retrieve details that can dramatically change your results.

Ryan explains why swimbaits draw bass you may never see on forward-facing sonar, how he chooses between a soft Keitech-style bait and a firmer hollow body, and how depth, speed, line size, and jighead weight all work together.

What you’ll learn:
• When to choose a boot-tail swimbait instead of a jighead minnow
• Why perfectly straight rigging can produce dramatically more bites
• How to choose 2.8, 3.5, 4.5, and 5.5-inch swimbaits
• Jighead weights and line sizes for different depths and retrieve speeds
• The pendulum-fall retrieve and why bites often come on the drop
• Why Ryan keeps his rod around 9:30 for better swimbait action
• The hookset mistake that costs anglers fish—and what to do instead
• Ryan’s Alabama-rig tricks, including shaking the rig, mixing trailers, and choosing blades

Guest: Ryan Salzman — BPT winner, longtime Tennessee River guide, and founder of True Bass Swimbaits.

Fall is the season when almost anything can work, which is exactly what makes it so hard. Jeremy Lawyer breaks down the bait he keeps coming back to when bass scatter, conditions change, and he needs the kind of bite that can change his day.

Lawyer has built a major part of his tournament résumé in the fall, including six All-American appearances, a 2016 All American win, and major fall success at Lake of the Ozarks.

What you’ll learn:
• Why reaction baits help locate scattered “wolf packs” before slow fishing ever finds them
• How Lawyer uses buzzbaits, Ploppers, walking baits, and other topwaters as the water cools
• Why topwater can keep producing in bright sun and even into 58–60° water in November and December
• His counterintuitive cold-front rule: go shallower until water gets down around 50–53°
• How he adjusts buzzbait color, blade, speed, and sound between sunny and cloudy conditions
• Why he’ll sacrifice numbers for better bites—and when stubbornness with one bait can pay off

Guest: Jeremy Lawyer, FLW Tour and 2016 All-American champion; six-time All-American qualifier; more than $1 million in career earnings with extensive fall tournament success.

The Carolina rig gets bit when nothing else will, but most anglers aren’t getting everything they can out of it. Peter Thliveros built a career with the technique and breaks down the details that separate simply dragging a C-rig from actually understanding what the rig is telling you.

Peter also explains the Petey Rig, the finesse version he developed that breaks many of the rules of a traditional Carolina rig—and when he’d rather throw it.

What you’ll learn:
• Why Peter believes most anglers fish a Carolina rig too light and too fast
• How much weight he uses and why heavier sinkers improve bottom contact
• How he reads rock, shell, gravel, grass, and transitions through the rig
• How Peter drags, pauses, snaps, and changes retrieve speed based on the fish
• Leader length, line, hooks, and bait selection for a traditional Carolina rig
• Why switching to a Fluke became one of the biggest changes in his C-rig fishing
• How the Petey Rig differs from the standard Carolina rig and when it shines
• How Peter uses both rigs to find productive water and generate bites when fishing gets tough

Guest: Peter Thliveros, 8 time national tour winner, retired professional angler, longtime Carolina-rig specialist, and creator of the Petey Rig.

Fall bass fishing gets tough fast when everyone piles into the same obvious water. Matt Pangrac breaks down the repeatable system he uses to find overlooked bass, get bites on unfamiliar lakes, and avoid wasting the day chasing the crowd.

After spending roughly a decade with fall as his primary fishing season, Matt developed a simple way to shrink big reservoirs into high-percentage water—and some of his best starting spots are places most anglers drive right past.

What you’ll learn:
• Why Matt starts near the lower end of the lake instead of automatically running to the backs of creeks
• How fish-attractor buoys and your mapping can reveal productive fall water fast
• Why vertical and horizontal structure coming together creates high-percentage bass spots
• Matt’s heavy 3/8- to 1/2-ounce drop-shot setup and why he fishes it fast
• How to rig and fish the backwards “chicken rig” around docks and suspended bass
• How he uses heavy jighead minnows to trigger pelagic bass with forward-facing sonar
• Why bridges, marinas, riprap, and ramps form his BMR² system for getting bit on almost any reservoir
• How fishing pressure changes where fall bass set up—and why the obvious water can get burned quickly

Guest: Matt Pangrac — Bass Talk Live host, national-level tournament angler, Bassmaster Opens competitor, and longtime fall-fishing specialist.

Why do some bass bite, get hooked, and still never make it to the boat? Cody Stahl breaks down the overlooked tackle decisions that affect everything from getting a bait through the strike zone to keeping a big fish pinned.

Fresh off a record 22-pound Bassmaster Open winning margin without forward-facing sonar, Cody brings an unusual perspective: he’s a tournament pro, fishing-rod designer, and former soft-plastic mold designer. He explains the details most anglers never think about—and why the “best” rod, hook, or material depends entirely on how you’re fishing.

What you’ll learn:
• Why Cody used a 3/4-ounce lipless crankbait on a 7'5" extra-heavy, extra-fast rod in Florida grass
• Why 20-pound fluorocarbon gave him advantages over braid with treble hooks
• The difference between rod power, action, modulus, and spring-back speed
• Why higher-modulus graphite can be better for jerkbaits but worse for some crankbaits
• How he chooses rods for ChatterBaits, frogs, jighead minnows, wacky rigs, and bottom-contact baits
• When to use an EWG versus straight-shank hook—and when to change your hookset around cover
• Why round-bend and EWG treble hooks can serve completely different purposes
• What a lure designer notices about swimbait tails, plastic hardness, seams, and action

What are the five best baits to have tied on for fall bass fishing? Zack Birge gives the exact five he’d trust if dropped on an unfamiliar lake anywhere in the country—and explains how he changes locations, retrieves, and presentations as fall progresses.

Birge is coming off a monster 2026 season with three tournament wins and a Bass Pro Tour Angler of the Year title. More importantly, he keeps his fishing remarkably simple and lets the fish tell him what they want instead of cycling through 15 or 20 rods.

What you’ll learn:
• The five fall baits Zack would rig for an unknown lake
• Why the first strong cold front matters more than the calendar
• Where to fish before bass push deeper into creeks
• How he approaches clear highland reservoirs versus shallow, dirtier lakes
• When to throw a buzzbait, walking bait, squarebill, bladed jig, or finesse jig
• Why fall bass may crush one bait today and ignore it tomorrow
• How bite location inside a creek tells you which areas to run next
• When jighead minnows and Alabama rigs become bigger players as water cools

Guest: Zack Birge — 2026 Bass Pro Tour Angler of the Year; three-time tournament winner in 2026; elite shallow-water and power-fishing specialist.

Most anglers can have a great day. The harder skill is avoiding the days when nothing works. Ryan Lachniet breaks down the decision-making system he uses to catch bass consistently—how he chooses dependable water, avoids high-risk patterns, adjusts when fish won’t commit, and uses LiveScope to make better decisions instead of simply chasing dots.

Ryan’s approach is surprisingly conservative for a young pro: find the best version of the safe option, secure dependable bites, then take calculated shots at bigger fish. He also explains why he’d often rather have LiveScope throughout practice than during the tournament itself.

What you’ll learn:
• How to find the “best of the safe options” instead of gambling on one winning spot
• When to use LiveScope early and when to save it for bigger bites
• Why forward-facing sonar may be more valuable in practice than tournament hours
• How to tell whether a Scope pattern will still work when you turn the screen off
• Why crowded community holes can be the smartest bailout when fishing gets tough
• What to change when bass follow a lure but refuse to bite
• Why Ryan changes baits before worrying about color
• How to decide between pattern fishing and staying in the best area

Guest: Ryan Lachniet — MLF Pro Circuit rookie with five straight top-25 finishes at the time of recording; second in Angler of the Year points.

Big bass often see a jig without ever committing to it. Bradley Hallman breaks down the Little Brown Jig system he refined over decades—the exact bait, tackle, casting targets, and patient retrieve that catch fish other anglers leave behind.

This is more than simply downsizing a jig. Hallman explains how head design, weight, skirt density, line size, casting accuracy, and the final 30–60-second pause work together as one complete system.

What you’ll learn:
• Why 5/16 ounce is his primary choice in 7–8 feet of water and shallower
• When to step up to a 7/16-ounce jig for deeper water or heavier line
• Why he wants a ball head, 60-degree line tie, stout hook, and sparse skirt
• His 6-foot-10 casting-rod setup and when to use 10-, 15-, or 20-pound fluorocarbon
• How he pairs a brown jig with a green-pumpkin Zoom Speed Craw
• Trailer-color changes for stained, dirty, and clear water
• Where to cast around docks, shade lines, gravel, rock, brush, and channel swings
• How “squatting” a jig for 30–60 seconds triggers the biggest fish to finally eat

Guest: Bradley Hallman... Two-time tour winner; longtime national tour pro; flippin' and jig specialist.

Why can you be surrounded by bass and still struggle to get a bite? Cal Lane explains how rigid expectations about season, location, current, water level, and fishing pressure can keep anglers committed to a pattern that no longer exists.

Recorded before his breakthrough Pro Circuit win at Lake Champlain, this conversation reveals the decision-making system behind Cal’s run of top finishes. Through real tournament examples, he explains how he determines whether to stay shallow, move offshore, trust LiveScope, fish current, or abandon the bite he expected.

What you’ll learn:
• How to recognize when you’re forcing the wrong bass pattern
• When to leave visible fish, productive practice water, or a confidence spot
• How cold fronts, floodwater, current, and pressure reposition bass
• When to choose shallow power fishing over offshore electronics
• How Cal uses ChatterBaits, swim jigs, buzzbaits, a 10XD, and an Alabama rig
• Why persistence catches fish but stubbornness can ruin a trip
• How to eliminate dead water without fishing randomly
• What to trust when the bass stop doing what they “should” do

Guest: Cal Lane — Pro Circuit winner and consistent top 10 finisher known for adapting between shallow power fishing and offshore techniques.

Which new LiveScope transducer should you buy—and could choosing the wrong one cost you bass? Alton Jones Jr. shares three days of on-water testing with the Garmin LVS42HD and LVS44, including where each transducer shines, what changes from the LVS34, and which model makes the most sense for most bass anglers.

You’ll also learn how Alton uses Perspective Mode, screen size, gain and filtering, multiple-transducer setups, and the Garmin Spy Pole to see more fish and make more efficient casts. Then he breaks down the Free Rig system he uses when pressured bass ignore minnows, drop shots, jigs, and other common presentations.

What you’ll learn:
• Why the LVS44 is the better all-around choice for most bass anglers
• Where the LVS42HD’s close-range detail and target separation matter most
• How far each transducer can clearly show fish, bait, timber, and bottom cover
• Why Perspective Mode helps identify fish and locate overlooked structure
• Gain, ghost reject, noise reject, and screen-size adjustments that improve visibility
• The best one-, two-, and three-transducer LiveScope configurations
• How the Garmin Spy Pole improves boat and transducer control in wind and current
• The Free Rig setup: 3/8-ounce weight, 17–20-pound line, total-slack fall, and alternate casting angles

Guest: Alton Jones Jr. — Bass Pro Tour champion with more than $1.5 million in career earnings; one of the sport’s most accomplished forward-facing sonar anglers.

A bass lure can still catch fish and no longer be the best option for the job.

Tournament pro and Core Tackle co-founder Matt Stefan breaks down which proven baits still deserve a place in your boat, which techniques are losing ground to better alternatives, and the new baits and rigs pros are trying to keep quiet.

We cover the rise of urchin-style baits, why movement and fall often matter more than lure shape, and Matt’s current buy, hold, or sell rating on Ned rigs, shaky heads, drop shots, tubes, Texas rigs, Carolina rigs, crankbaits, jigs, spinnerbaits, bladed jigs, topwaters, and more.

Matt also explains how he evaluates new techniques, why some old-school baits are making a comeback, and how Core Tackle designs specialized hooks and rigs to make existing presentations more efficient.

Fish a Ned rig with less guesswork and more bottom contact. Brian Latimer breaks down the simple setup, retrieve, and location rules that help this subtle bait catch numbers—and why most anglers make it harder than it needs to be.

This is a complete Ned rig clinic covering jigheads, plastics, weights, colors, line, leader length, hooksets, seasonal patterns, and the places where the technique works best.

What you’ll learn:
• Why simple, low-action plastics often outperform baits covered in appendages
• When to use a 1/5-ounce head and when to lighten up to 1/10 ounce
• Why Brian prefers a light-wire Finesse ShroomZ over heavier and EWG-style hooks
• How 10-pound braid with a 15-pound fluorocarbon leader reduces break-offs
• The bottom-contact and slack-line retrieve detail most anglers miss
• Why “nothing banks,” bridges, current, steep points, and deep winter fish fit the Ned rig
• How to tightline, fish vertically, and let current move the bait
• Why a numbers bait can still produce tournament-quality bass

Guest: Brian Latimer — Professional tournament angler, Lake Seminole FLW Tour winner, fishing educator, and founder of Straight Up Fishing.

What is the best way to catch bass in the middle of summer when the lake is hot, crowded, and full of boat traffic?

In this episode of Catch More Bass, Bass Pro Jeremy Lawyer breaks down the summer bass bite most anglers miss because they quit too early, fish the wrong window, or try to grind through the worst part of the day. Jeremy has spent years fishing Lake of the Ozarks and other crowded, dock-covered lakes, and he shares how he approaches summer fishing when the heat, jet skis, wake boats, and fishing pressure make the lake feel almost impossible.

We talk night fishing for bass, why a different class of fish can bite after dark, how dock lights and moon phase change the bite, and which baits Jeremy trusts most at night, including spinnerbaits, buzzbaits, jigs, big worms, chatterbaits, and squarebills.

Then we get into early morning fishing, summer current, boat traffic, crowded lake strategy, and how to pick better docks instead of wasting time on dead ones. Jeremy also explains why bass often live behind docks, how wind and shade position fish, and why the first cast on a dock or brush pile can be the one that matters most.

If you’re trying to catch more bass in summer heat, beat crowded lakes, fish better at night, or understand where bass go when boat traffic gets bad, this episode gives you a practical summer game plan from one of the best dock fishermen in the country.

Most anglers can catch a few bass. The harder part is adding the one big fish that changes the day.

Justin Lucas breaks down how he uses a CullShad-style harness swimbait to create bonus big-bass opportunities without throwing a giant bait all day. This is the practical system: when the window opens, where to make the first cast, how to trigger followers, and when to put it back down before it burns you.

What you’ll learn:
• Why this bait is a “window bait,” not an all-day swimbait grind
• The best timing: 50-degree prespawn water, February–May, fall, clouds, wind, shade, and pre-front conditions
• Why Justin throws it first on prime points, docks, riprap, and high-percentage targets
• His CullShad setup: 5- and 6-inch sizes, 20 lb fluorocarbon, 7’6” heavy rod, slower reel, quad hook, and 1/16 oz nail weight
• The retrieve that triggers big followers: slow and steady with 3–4 quick reel pops per cast
• How high to run the bait so bass feed up instead of spooking
• When bumps and followers mean “put it down” instead of forcing it
• How Justin decides when to grind, change baits, or leave an area completely

Bass fishing has changed fast. Spencer Shuffield breaks down what still gets bit in 2026, why pressured bass follow more and commit less, and how to catch them whether you’re using LiveScope or putting it down and power fishing.

This is not just a forward-facing sonar episode. Spencer explains how fish have learned baits like jerkbaits, A-rigs, drop shots, jighead minnows, and Koike-style baits — and how that has changed the way he fishes ChatterBaits, jigs, spinnerbaits, grass lines, brush, and shallow targets.

What you’ll learn:
• Why bass follow baits but won’t commit like they used to
• How great baits burn out after fish see them enough
• What jighead minnows, drop shots, jerkbaits, A-rigs, and Koike-style baits have in common
• Why baits that stay above fish trigger more reaction bites
• How Spencer uses Scope to find better targets, not just chase dots
• When traditional power fishing can still beat the electronics game
• How small bait changes can make pressured bass react again

We’re all guilty of defaulting to our favorite bait, even when there’s probably a better option. Justin Atkins breaks down how one of the most versatile pros in bass fishing decides when each lure actually deserves to be tied on.

This is a lure-by-lure decision tree for real fishing situations — shallow cover, grass, clear water, muddy water, current, offshore schools, forward-facing sonar, pressured fish, and more.

What you’ll learn:
• When a spinnerbait beats a ChatterBait, swim jig, or crankbait
• Why Justin always wants plastic on a spinnerbait instead of relying on a trailer hook
• When a bladed jig is the better landing-percentage bait
• Why a swim jig shines around shallow grass, clear water, and quiet targets
• When to pick a Fritzside, lipless, squarebill, or deep crankbait
• How Justin chooses between a jig, Texas rig, wacky rig, Neko, and drop shot
• Why a power worm is still his first choice around offshore schools
• How he picks between a jerkbait, minnow, and nail-weighted Hit Worm with forward-facing sonar

If you’ve ever found offshore bass but couldn’t get them to bite, Mark Rose breaks down what you’re probably missing. This is a deep-cranking and ledge-fishing clinic from one of the best to ever do it — how he fires offshore schools, chooses between crankbaits and other ledge baits, and adjusts when the fish won’t commit.

What you’ll learn:
• Why a deep crankbait triggers offshore schools when slower baits won’t
• How Mark fishes a Strike King 6XD from 6–20+ feet, including long-lining
• When to use a 10XD for bigger forage, deeper fish, bluegill, crappie, or gizzard shad eaters
• Retrieve changes that matter: speed cranking, snapping, pausing, grinding, and coming over the fish
• Mark’s crankbait setup: 12 lb fluorocarbon, 15 lb for bigger baits, EWG trebles, and double split rings
• Color rules for offshore cranking, including citrus, sexy shad, chartreuse/blue, clear-water shad, and root beer during the bluegill spawn
• When to put the crankbait down and switch to hair jigs, football jigs, Carolina rigs, spoons, worms, shaky heads, swimbaits, or scroungers
• How current, wind, grass, natural lakes, and forward-facing sonar change the offshore game

Guest: Mark Rose — 2018 FLW Tour Angler of the Year; 8 tour-level wins; more than $3 million in career earnings; one of the most respected offshore ledge and deep-cranking anglers in bass fishing.

Many anglers can find offshore bass and only catch a few. Jason Lambert dominated deep-water tournaments because he knew how to catch the right fish — the bigger ones, the pressured ones, and the schools other pros couldn’t fully unlock.

In this episode, retired offshore legend Jason Lambert gives up the ledge-fishing secrets he spent years keeping quiet: where summer schools set up, why he started with big baits, how pressure moves fish, and the cast angles that kept schools biting.

What you’ll learn:
• Why Lambert started every offshore school with the biggest, nastiest bait on deck
• How big bass position in schools, satellite groups, and pressured ledge areas
• Why a first cast with a big swimbait, scrounger, Jerky J, or crankbait can trigger the right fish
• How current, shell bars, creek-channel intersections, hard bottom, and irregularities create summer ledge schools
• The cast-angle mistake that can pull fish off the ledge and shut down the school
• Why bottom contact mattered so much with the Jerky J/scrounger system
• How Lambert used side imaging, mapping, and later LiveScope to find schools faster

Seeing fish on LiveScope is not the edge anymore. Drew Gill breaks down why so many anglers can see bass on the screen but still struggle to make them bite — and what the best scopers are doing differently now.

Drew walks through his first nine pro events of the season, including two wins, and pulls out the real lessons from each one: how he found the right fish, when Scope helped, when shallow fishing won, what he missed, and why the modern forward-facing sonar game keeps changing.

What you’ll learn:
• Why LiveScope success is less about settings now and more about fish selection
• How Drew identifies which fish are bass, which are active, and which are worth chasing
• Why suspended fish are getting harder to catch on pressured lakes
• When to use Scope around the bank, bed fish, fry guarders, and shallow cover
• What changed at Guntersville, Harris Chain, Hartwell, Santee, Whitney/Waco, Wheeler, O.H. Ivie/Brownwood, Kentucky Lake, and REDCREST
• How Alabama rigs, minnows, Neko rigs, drop shots, ChatterBaits, crankbaits, and fuzzy baits fit into Drew’s system
• Drew’s take on Coike-style fuzzy baits, dice baits, and whether they have staying power
• Why shallow fishing is still alive — and when not using Scope can be the better call

Guest: Drew Gill — two-time pro winner already this season; widely regarded as one of the best LiveScope anglers in bass fishing; elite at breaking down bass behavior, bait response, and forward-facing sonar decision-making.

Dice baits, Coike-style baits, fuzzy baits, urchins—whatever you call them, they’re the hottest bait category in bass fishing right now. Pake South may be fishing them better than anyone, and after two record-book Bassmaster Open wins, he’s breaking down the exact details that make fish follow, commit, and fully eat.

This is a deep dive into how Pake fishes dice/urchin-style baits with LiveScope, why the right sink rate and profile matter, and how the new Berkley MaxScent Moeba was designed to solve the follow-and-nip problem.

What you’ll learn:
• Why dice/Coike-style baits get more bites than minnows or jerkbaits in certain LiveScope situations
• How Pake works them like a jerkbait: twitch, pause, adjust to the fish’s mood
• The ideal sink rate, tentacle stiffness, profile, and fall that make an urchin bait work
• When to throw the big 4.5-inch style vs. downsizing for smallmouth and spotted bass
• The setup: 7’3” medium-heavy extra-fast rod, 20-pound fluorocarbon, baitcaster, and hard hooksets
• Why first-cast accuracy at 40–60 feet matters more than bombing casts way out
• How MaxScent helps turn followers and nippers into fish that actually commit
• When dice baits don’t work, and how to tell fast before wasting your day

Guest: Pake South — Bassmaster Elite Series pro; 2026 Bassmaster Open winner at Rayburn and Eufaula; record-book three-day weights; one of the hottest young LiveScope anglers in bass fishing.

Dean Rojas, pro bass fishing’s king of frog fishing, breaks down the system he built over decades of dialing in the technique. This is a full frog fishing masterclass: where to throw it, why anglers miss fish, when to use walking vs popping frogs, and how to choose the right setup and colors.

What you’ll learn:
• The biggest frog fishing mistakes that cost anglers bites and landed fish
• Why so many bass miss a frog — and how bait design, hooks, rod, reel, and braid fix it
• When a walking frog beats a popping frog around grass, docks, seawalls, pads, and open targets
• Why Dean built the SPRO Bronzeye Frog around hookup ratio and body collapse
• How to choose frog colors for clear water, muddy water, shad, bluegill, and visibility
• The best frog fishing weather, water temperature windows, and seasonal timing
• Why the best frog spots are often missed by anglers who only think “mats and grass”
• Dean’s frog rod, reel, braid, hook-angle, cadence, and hookset system

The jighead minnow is still the number one LiveScope bait, but it is a lot less forgiving than it was two years ago. Bassmaster Classic champion Dylan Nutt explains why fish are more conditioned than ever, which details matter most now, and how top pros still get those fish to commit.

This episode starts with the jighead minnow, then widens out into the Berkley Lab Series minnow Dylan used in his Classic win and how he breaks down lakes in the LiveScope era. If you’re getting follows but not bites, this is the kind of detail-heavy conversation that can actually help.

What you’ll learn:
• Why Dylan still throws a jighead minnow about 80% of the time, even with Neko rigs, Dice baits, and other newer scope options
• When the jighead minnow shines most, especially from fall through prespawn around suspended fish and even some bottom-oriented fish
• Dylan’s full jighead minnow setup: 6'10" medium-light spinning rod, 6.8:1 reel, 8 lb Berkley X5 braid, and 10–15 lb fluorocarbon leader
• The three biggest variables when fish follow but won’t eat: bait size, jighead weight, and retrieve
• Why matching the hatch matters so much with a jighead minnow, including why Dylan used a bigger 6.5-inch minnow in the Classic
• The biggest jighead minnow mistake Dylan sees: letting the bait fall below the fish instead of keeping it above them
• What made the Berkley Lab Series minnow different, including rolling action, scent trail, and fish that would come back and eat it twice
• How Dylan breaks down new lakes with LiveScope by choosing an area, graphing it thoroughly, and using fish position, cover, and bait to build a pattern faster

Guest: Dylan Nutt — Bassmaster Classic champion; MLF Pro Circuit angler; University of North Alabama standout; one of the top young anglers in the LiveScope era.

May bass fishing is wide open—and that’s exactly why so many anglers get it wrong. Bass can be shallow, deep, spawning, postspawn, chasing shad, or already sliding into early summer spots, sometimes all in the same day. In this episode, I break down the 5 best baits for May bass fishing and when each one shines so you can stop guessing and start fishing what the lake is giving you.

We cover topwater for low-light shad spawn and shallow feeders, a Texas-rig ribbon tail worm for shallow cover or deeper structure, a bladed jig around floating docks, a jig for the first big postspawn females moving deep, and deep-diving crankbaits to trigger aggressive offshore schools. I also finish with a bonus May tip: this is one of the best months of the year to fish your strengths, because there’s usually a window where your confidence bait can shine.

May through July is when bass can be shallow, deep, and everywhere in between—and that’s exactly why so many anglers waste the day. In this episode, Jordan Lee breaks down the 5 baits he trusts most to narrow it down fast, from frogging shallow cover to fishing a big worm offshore, with the exact little tweaks that can turn a good pattern into a winning one.

What you’ll learn:
• How Jordan decides whether to stay shallow or slide offshore in May, June, and July
• Why a popping frog gets the nod so often postspawn, and when he switches to a walking frog
• The frog tweaks he uses, including Flashabou tails and the rattle trick that helped in a Toho win
• Why a swim jig is such a strong follow-up bait around shad spawn, shade, and shoreline cover
• How he fishes a Neko rig, including the 2 nail-weight styles and when each one matters
• The Neko mistake he’ll never make again with hooks and weed guards
• Why bigger worms take over from late May into July, and how big is too big
• Why Jordan still refuses to overlook shallow fish in summer, even when everyone else is offshore

Guest: Jordan Lee — two-time Bassmaster Classic champion and one of the most versatile pros in the game, with wins shallow, offshore, and under pressure.

This might be the best swim jig trailer nobody uses. In this episode, I break down why pairing a swim jig with a big Texas-rig worm gave me a different profile, better hookup power, and more quality bites around shallow spring cover.

What you’ll learn:
• Why a big worm trailer gives a swim jig a different look than the standard trailers most anglers throw
• How this setup keeps the hookup power and weedlessness of a swim jig while fixing the missed-fish problem of a swimming worm
• Why bigger profile baits can get more attention from better bass in spring grass, brush, and shallow cover
• When this combo shines best for targeting bigger fish around spawning areas and territorial bass
• When a more traditional swim jig trailer is still the better choice, especially around shad-focused fish
• How I retrieve it through grass, over cover, and along subtle depth changes
• The rod, reel, and line setup I like for fishing this bait effectively all day

In the full breakdown, I also cover why this trailer choice seems to draw bigger bites, how I compare it to fishing a big worm on a Texas rig, and the exact situations where I keep going back to it when I want a different look without giving up control or hookup ratio.

A swim jig can get a few bites almost anywhere. But if it doesn’t match the cover, depth, and how bass are positioned, you’re leaving too many fish behind. In Part 3, Tom Monsoor breaks down how to choose the right swim jig for the job so you can get more bites, fish cleaner through cover, and catch fish other anglers miss.

What you’ll learn:
• How Tom decides where to start with a swim jig on Florida lakes, reservoirs, rivers, and tidal water
• How bass position on weed edges, outside grass lines, current runs, and shallow cover
• When fish are set up high, suspended, or on bottom — and how that changes the jig you should throw
• How current, tide, and changing water direction affect swim jig presentation
• Why eelgrass, hydrilla, and other cover types call for different swim jig approaches
• When to use lighter versus heavier weed guards and how that affects hookups
• Why hook angle, hook sharpness, and small design details matter so much
• How Tom thinks about making a swim jig work in clear water, grass, wood, and deeper structure

Guest: Tom Monsoor — legendary swim jig innovator, tournament winner, and one of the best swim jig fishermen ever.

Bass Fishing Tips: A lot of anglers quit throwing good baits because the trends changed, not because the fish stopped eating them. In this episode, Stetson Blaylock breaks down the old-school lures that still matter, the exact bite windows where they shine, and why so many fishermen give up on them too early.

What you’ll learn:
• Why some “forgotten” baits still outfish newer trends in specific situations
• How Stetson used a Booyah Hard Knocker lipless crankbait at Guntersville with a slower 6.6:1 reel and 15 lb Tatsu
• When a hollow-body swimbait like the Young Money Minnow is better than more modern swimbait options
• Why subtle action mattered with cold water, dying shad, and grass in the back of the creek
• When spinnerbaits, Texas rigs, lizards, and flipping tubes still play
• Why confidence baits and knowing exact scenarios matter more than chasing every new lure

Guest: Stetson Blaylock — Bassmaster Elite pro, multiple time winner, and one of the best in the game at making old-school and modern techniques work together.

Bass Fishing Tips: Chatterbait color gets overcomplicated fast. In this episode, I break it down to the 3 color buckets I always start with so you can figure bass out faster, stop wasting time, and know when it’s worth dialing color in further.

We cover the best chatterbait colors for shad and minnow situations, natural green pumpkin and black/blue options, and high-contrast red and orange when you need fish to find the bait. I also explain my best all-around starting color, how I match trailers to each color bucket, and when blade color actually matters. If you’ve ever wondered whether fish just won’t eat a chatterbait that day or whether you’ve got the wrong color tied on, this is the framework I use to simplify it.

Bass fishing tips: If you’ve ever found bass, caught a few, and still knew you left fish behind, this episode is for you. Bass Fishing Hall of Famer Mark Davis breaks down the missed edge in modern bass fishing: not always finding more fish, but slowing down enough to make the fish you found actually bite.

What you’ll learn:
• Why you should fish slow only after you know fish are there
• The biggest mistake anglers make when the bite gets tough
• How slow Mark really means on a Carolina rig and Texas rig
• Why “drag it and sit on it” gets more fish to commit
• When a Texas rig shines vs. when a Carolina rig is the better tool
• How bottom composition, wind, and water clarity change Carolina rig setup
• Why profile and angle can matter more than color
• Why pressured fish often need dead-sticking and more soak time

Bass Fishing Tips: Spring bass are shallow… and so is everybody else. When the obvious water gets pounded, the bite goes from “easy” to “why won’t they eat?” fast. In this episode, I break down a simple two-lane plan: find overlooked water with easier fish, or stay in the popular areas and make the key adjustments that still get bites.

What you’ll learn:
• How to use boat ramp locations on a lake map to find low-pressure sections fast
• The “turnaround point” trick on big shallow flats where most boats quit
• Using Google Earth history to spot ditches, low spots, and hidden sweet spots on flats
• Where to look for pre-spawn and post-spawn bass when everyone is fishing shallow
• Main-lake pockets and shallow main-lake flats that get ignored during the spawn rush
• What rising water really does to bass and how to fish the old bank line vs new flooded cover
• How to use electronics to find hidden cover, not just fish
• The pressured-fish adjustments: fish deeper than the crowd, different looks, fish the fringe, and dead-sticking

Boat batteries used to be simple. Not anymore. With LiveScope, multiple graphs, trolling motors, pumps, Power-Poles, and modern outboards, getting the right battery setup matters more than ever. In this episode, Lester Miller of MillerTech breaks down how to choose the right batteries for a modern bass boat, what actually matters in lithium performance, and where anglers still get tripped up.

We cover how much amp-hour capacity most anglers really need, why 36V battery setups have changed, whether a dedicated electronics battery is worth it for LiveScope and graphs, and why lithium can hold image clarity better than old lead-acid setups late in the day. Lester also explains what separates premium lithium batteries from cheap online options, how BMS quality and low-temperature charging protection matter, what causes problems with lithium cranking batteries on big outboards, and why cold-weather charging and battery safety still deserve attention.

If you’re trying to get your batteries right once and not think about them again, this one should save you money, confusion, and a lot of avoidable problems.

Bass Fishing Tips: April bass fishing is predictable shallow water and heavy pressure: everyone’s around fish, but most anglers are throwing the same handful of baits. In this episode, we break down the 5 best baits for April bass fishing and the key retrieves that make them work when the spawn and post-spawn overlap and the easy stuff starts getting ignored.

You’ll learn when to press for bigger bites with a swimbait, how to fish a finesse Carolina rig in that 4–8 foot zone, the shaky head details that get pressured fish to commit, and how to cover water with topwater and a swim jig around shad spawn, bluegill activity, and fry guarders. We finish with the bonus reaction options—floating jerkbait and soft plastic jerkbait—when the bite just dies and you need a trigger, not a soak.

It’s spring, bass are where you expect them to be, and somehow you’re still not getting bit. In this episode, Zack Birge breaks down the real problem: not every pocket has the right group of fish, and even when it does, they won’t bite the same way every day.

Fresh off his win on Whitney and Waco, Zack explains how he approaches new water, what helps him find productive areas faster, and how he changes with the fish instead of forcing yesterday’s pattern. This is a sharp, practical shallow-water clinic on finding fish faster, choosing the right search baits, and knowing when it’s time to slow down.

What you’ll learn:
• How Zack finds the best groups of spring bass instead of wasting time in empty-looking water
• Why bait in the backs of creeks and pockets can be the fastest clue to active fish
• Why chatterbait is his number one spring search bait and when spinnerbait, swim jig, and a lipless bait fit
• The small bait changes that mattered, including profile and color adjustments when conditions shifted
• When to slow down with a Senko or flipping bait after a moving bait stops producing
• How he identified reloading areas where he could make multiple passes and keep catching fish
• Why staying quiet in shallow water mattered more than using LiveScope in his winning area
• The mindset rule that kept him getting bit: stop forcing what worked earlier and change with the fish

Guest: Zack Birge — Bass Pro Tour winner, current AOY leader, and one of the most versatile shallow and offshore anglers in the game.

Bass Fishing Tips: If you could only take one bait for the entire spring, what would it be—and why? In this episode I make the case for a swimming worm (speed worm) as the best “middle lane” spring tool: fast enough to cover water like a moving bait, but weedless and precise enough to fish thick cover like a Texas rig.

We break down when spring fish push anglers into two extremes (burn moving baits vs deadstick a Senko), why pressured bass respond to a different look, and how to fish a speed worm two ways: steady swimming to find fish, and slower Texas-rig style when they won’t chase. You’ll also get the exact setup—Berkley Speed Boss, pegged weight, 4/0 superline EWG—plus key retrieve rules (rod tip up vs down, steady vs stop-and-go), where it shines in the spring shallows, and the common mistakes that kill bites and hookups.

Bass Fishing Tips: Bass are following your jighead minnow all the way in… then peeling off. That’s not “tough fishing”—it’s usually one small mistake in angle, action, or how the bait is tracking. In this deep-dive podcast, Bassmaster Elite winner Fisher Anaya breaks down how he actually gets commitment with a jighead minnow on LiveScope, even as fish get more trained to the technique.

What you’ll learn:
• Where a jighead minnow fits in his top LiveScope bait lineup (and when he goes jerkbait or Neko)
• The best minnow conditions and why slick, bluebird days can be prime
• Jighead and hook choices that improve hookup ratio (gap, hook flash, and why he avoids loop knots)
• Head weight strategy (going lighter than most) and when heavier heads still win
• Minnow picks and sizing: Freeloader vs Sakamata vs “mooch” style baits, plus match-the-hatch logic
• How to rig for the right roll (top rig to hide the head) and when to switch to up/down action
• Cadence basics: simple roll vs hunt vs straight reel, and how fast to adjust
• Casting angle, stealth, and boat shadow—how distance changes your odds
• What to do with a follower that comes to the boat (leave, loop back, and timing)

Bass Fishing Tips: Skip casting is the cast that separates anglers who “can” from anglers who just hope. In this episode, Tom breaks down a simple 3-fix system to skip a baitcaster clean—without blowing up your reel—and hit tight openings under docks and cover with confidence. No fluff, no magic settings: you’ll learn what actually matters first, then how to fine-tune your reel once the cast is right.

What you’ll learn:
• How to skip a baitcaster without backlash by practicing on smooth concrete or a gym floor
• The sidearm “keep it low” casting motion that stops blowups (and why chopping down causes them)
• A daily practice plan (15–20 casts) that builds muscle memory fast
• The accuracy hack: where to look and how to visualize the landing spot under a dock
• Spool tension “Goldilocks” setup using a controlled drop test
• Brake settings for skipping (why turning it up helps when you clip water/chop)
• Bonus: lure shape + weight rules—flat profiles skip best; when heavier beats lighter in chop

Bass Fishing Tips: Most “sight fishing” content is just how to bed fish for bass. Keith Carson’s take is bigger: if you can see a bass—on a bed, cruising, or relating to bluegill beds—there’s a real chance it’s catchable if you know what to do next.

We get specific on the details that decide whether you catch ’em or spook ’em:

• How Keith judges catchable vs. time-waster fish in seconds (based on behavior)

• The “turn around and bomb it” move after you spook one—and why it still works

• Cruiser mechanics: get small, stop the boat, one-shot rules, and why “kill it” triggers bites

• Bed fishing that isn’t the usual rehash: natural colors to catch them faster and reading the fish instead of watching your bait

• Bluegill beds as a “dinner bell”: where bass set up, how to fish the sides, and how feeding windows change everything

If you’ve searched how to sight fish for bass, how to bed fish for bass, how to catch spawning bass, or where to find spawning bass, this is the episode that connects it all into one repeatable system.

Berkley is swinging at the top of the fluorocarbon market with GinClear—and that’s a big claim. In this episode I explain why I normally hate testing new fishing line (the downside is huge), then walk through what I saw after months of fishing Berkley GinClear fluorocarbon around docks, timber, and heavy cover.

We break down the two “lanes” most fluorocarbon lives in—easy casting/low memory vs abrasion resistance/toughness—and where GinClear actually lands on that spectrum. I also share why the handling stood out enough that I started upsizing pound test for more control and fewer breakoffs, plus when I’d still reach for a true “tank” line in extreme abrasion situations.

If you’re wondering whether GinClear is a real upgrade or just a new label, this is the honest scorecard and decision process I use.

Bass Fishing Tips: Spring crankbait fishing shouldn’t feel random. MDJ breaks down the real separator—how to pick the right shallow crank for the situation and the trigger moves that turn followers into committed bites. If you’re getting “looks” but not getting crushed, this episode is the fix.

What you’ll learn:
• When a lipless (trap) beats a squarebill in spring—and when you should switch
• The cadence rules that trigger bites (why “just reeling it in” kills your results)
• How grass changes everything: keeping the bait clean and forcing reaction bites
• How MDJ uses sound (one-knocker vs silent) to match pressure and conditions
• Spring color rules that actually matter (craw vs shad, plus confidence options)
• The “4WD” squarebill concept for crawling through wood without hanging up
• Treble hook philosophy for better hookups when fish swipe or short-strike
• A simple framework to catch more shallow bass all spring without overthinking

Bass Fishing Tips: Fuzzy Dice, Coike, dice baits, urchins — whatever you call them, they’re getting followed hard… and missed even harder. In this episode, I break down the exact rigging setup I’m using to stop the guessing: the clean internal-weight rig that locks the hook and weight into the bait (so you don’t sling weights or tear up expensive elastomer baits), plus a simple stinger add-on that fixes short strikes without killing the action.

We’ll cover why I’m out on dangling/external-weight styles for how these baits are being fished right now, the standard nail-weight “Neko-style” rig (and where it fails), the better “lock-in” weight option, and when to go weedless vs open hooks around timber, docks, and open water. If you’re seeing followers on LiveScope/FFS and not converting, this is the rigging blueprint.

Bass Fishing Tips: Swim jigs should work almost anywhere—but if they aren’t, most anglers are missing a simple decision system. In Part 2, Tom Monsoor (arguably the best swim jig fisherman of all time) lays out the shortcut he’s refined over decades: three top colors, three trailer styles, and two retrieves—plus the rules that tell you which one to pick so you’re not changing everything every ten casts.

We cover:

• The “core” swim jig colors Tom leans on and what each one is really for

• The trailer styles that cover the widest range of bites (and what they signal to the fish)

• The two retrieves that do most of the work—and when to switch lanes

• How to make faster, cleaner decisions so the swim jig becomes an “automatic” bait instead of a guessing game

If you missed it, part 1 covered the best swim jig and how to make them run correct and hook more fish/get more bites.

Bass Fishing Tips: March bass fishing is obvious water and heavy pressure: everybody’s in the backs of pockets and spawning creeks, and the fish have seen the same baits all day. This episode breaks down my Top 5 March bass fishing baits (Texas/southern spawn timing) and—more importantly—the one key retrieve for each so you can turn “around fish” into reaction bites in crowded, pressured spring water.

We cover a squarebill crankbait bite that can produce your biggest fish early, a bladed jig worked like a jig and slow-rolled near bottom for territorial spawners, the swim jig finesse play for shallow grass, a swimming worm that lets you keep power-fishing while everyone else dead-sticks, and a Texas rig for picking apart the exact cover fish spawn on. Then we finish with the fallback when nothing else works: a slow, patient wacky/weightless approach that still gets bit in peak pressure.

Bass Fishing Tips: Swim jig fishing for bass is are  one of the most reliable ways to get bit, especially around grass and shallow cover. But if your swim jig doesn’t run true / track straight, you’ll get fewer bites—and if the hook setup is wrong, you’ll miss or lose fish that crush it.

In this episode, Tom Monsoor (swim jig pioneer and one of the most respected swim jig minds in the sport) breaks down the two biggest “quiet killers” that make swim jigs inconsistent:

• Why a swim jig doesn’t run perfectly true (and what makes it list/lean or “hunt”)

• How the hook choice and hook details can cost bites and cost fish at the boat

• The build and setup details that separate a swim jig that “kind of works” from one that’s dialed

• How to think about swim jig balance so it tracks clean and stays effective in real cover

Part 2 (next episode) goes deep on the system: the only 3 colors, 3 trailer styles, and 2 retrieves you need—plus the rules for choosing the right one fast.

Bass fishing tips: Most spring bass advice obsesses over lures, colors, and retrieves. That stuff matters—but it’s not the main thing. The best spring bite usually comes down to WHERE bass concentrate and WHEN conditions line up to push a huge portion of the population into a small, fishable area.

In this episode, I break down three spring “loaded water” situations I hunt on any lake from late winter through the spawn: marina crash pockets, flooded fall drought weeds, and the “hot tub” pinch-point pocket that warms faster than the rest of the lake. You’ll learn what each one is, why it gathers bass, and the timing cues that tell you when it’s about to be an epic day—warming trends, rising water, moon phases, and those afternoon windows that flip the switch.

Bass Fishing Tips: Spring is the easiest time to waste hours fishing “good-looking water” that’s empty. In this episode, pro angler Matt Becker lays out a simple “start here” blueprint you can use on your home lake or a brand-new one—no matter what kind of water you fish.

We break it down by lake style (small waters, grass lakes, highland clear lakes, TVA/current-driven reservoirs, northern natural lakes, and more) and focus on what actually matters when you launch: the first areas to check, the first baits to tie on, and the adjustments that keep you around fish as conditions change.

If you’ve ever shown up in spring and felt behind before you made your first cast, this episode gives you a repeatable first-hour plan—and a clear next move when the initial plan doesn’t produce.

Spring Bass Fishing Tips: Spring is where most anglers struggle: wrong baits, wrong water, and too much guessing.

In this episode, pro angler John Cox breaks down his simple six-bait spring system—the exact lineup he relies on to cover the full spring progression from cold water into the first wave of spawners. We talk about how he chooses the right water fast, the bite “tells” that say you’re in the right zone, and the small execution details that turn short strikes into clean hookups.

If you want a spring plan that’s simple, repeatable, and built around what actually gets bit, this is the episode.

Bass Fishing Tip: Pressured bass can make your best spots feel “one-bite-and-done,” even when you know fish are still there. In this episode, I break down the new bait that changed my mind fast: the Berkley MaxScent Flux Gill—why its flat bluegill profile gets bites on conditioned fish, and how I’m using it to outproduce my usual confidence trailers.

You’ll hear exactly how I’m rigging it on a jig and bladed jig, what makes it act different in the water (glide, subtle motion with minimal movement, and that odd wobble), plus the situations where I wouldn’t throw it. I’ll also cover the next tests on my list (Texas rig and Neko/wacky) so you can decide if it belongs in your rotation.

Bass Fishing Tips: Most anglers react to a tough day by grinding harder on the wrong variables. Brent Ehrler doesn’t. In this conversation, Brent breaks down how he keeps his approach simple, avoids getting trapped “dialing” details that don’t move the needle, and makes the bigger decision that actually changes the outcome of the day.

We get into how he uses a streamlined set of confidence tools to get bites across wildly different fisheries, how he recognizes when a plan is dying, and how he pivots without panic. If you’ve ever spent hours “almost” getting bit—or caught dinks while someone else is around quality—this episode is about the decisions that separate a saved trip from a wasted one.

Bass Fishing Tips: February bass will fool you. If your bite dies right after a warm-up, you didn’t lose the fish—you missed the February Flip. In this episode, Tom Redington breaks down the 5 best baits for February bass fishing and, more importantly, where to fish them and how to adjust as bass shift from winter positioning into early prespawn movement.

You’ll get the February playbook: flipping jig around staging cover, lipless cranks for covering water in the backs, spinnerbaits for thumping through wind and stain, bladed jigs for grass and cover, and shallow cranks when targets are scarce. Tom also explains the “one month before your spawn” rule so the pattern translates beyond Texas.

Then comes the wildcard: when the February Flip hits, moving baits can fizzle overnight and it turns into a soft-plastic deal (stick baits, weightless/wacky, neko, Texas rigs) where deadsticking and slower falls get the bites again.
