Bait Finesse Fishing ( BFS ) For Bass! How Its Actually Done!

We're throwing BAIT FINESSE ( BFS ) all day long! Today is dedicated to the growing segment of bass fishing known as "Bait Finesse". We're using the Shimano Curado BFS reel on a variety of different light and ultralight bait casting rods to effectively fish worms, craws, topwater, and reaction baits. If you've never seen this fishing method in action, you don't want to miss this!
Come along for an awesome day of finesse fishing with Bait Finesse Tackle! Ultralight bait casting gear, micro baits, and quality bass! Matt starts the day fishing a micro craw profile on offshore structure, then moves shallow with a variety of moving baits ( Megabass Karashi, Damiki Umpa, Rapala Ultralight, and the Jackall PikuPiku ). Micro baits and quality bass, can it get more fun?!?!
Below you'll find links to all the gear Matt is using, including the baits, colors, hooks, rods, and reels. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

[@michaelbush7696]

Matt "THE CAT" Allen. Nice reflexes on saving your rig. Got back into fishing about a year ago and can't begin to tell you how much I have learned from you and Tim. Thanks for all the work you guys put in to help us become better anglers. Take care my friend.

[@tacticalbassin]

We're happy to do it! Thanks for the support!

[@HobieWanKenobi]

BFS fishing is loads of fun! Good to see some of the bigger KZbin channles finally covering BFS.

[@yacobginz6075]

You’re still one of the OG’s. Love my alderbaron bfs. Lucky raffle win

[@HobieWanKenobi]

@@yacobginz6075 That's quite the raffle win!

[@theyellowjersey]

Thanks for paying some love to very area of Bass Fishing and fishing in general that was born here in Japan. So glad to BFS being recognized more overseas each day and also how it's killin' it in the Bassmaster series also!

[@brianrobinson9979]

I can't wait to see You and Tim catch a double digit on BFS 😁👍

[@seanyB223]

Wonder if they have yet!!

[@clintonbruning]

Matt turned me onto BFS last January and that’s pretty much all I do on my channel. I’ve caught my PB of 8.8, an 8.3, a couple 7s and loads of 5-6 lb fish on 6 lb line and BFS since making the switch and the best part is the next cast I could catch a crappie, or a 8 inch bass. It’s so fun like he said. I’ve had several limits over 20 lbs recently on bfs, here’s a link to one of those if you wanna check it out. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pIfRhp-Vf9CCf7c

[@dwightrice7966]

Matt...are you using snaps to attach the Karashi or tying a knot? Have you tried the HT Setsuki chaiyu color?

[@baitchuckin]

Awesome video!! I absolutely LOVE throwing BFS on the Delta! Makes for a really fun afternoon when nothing else is getting bit! Cheers Matt and Tim!!

[@donovanjackson7241]

Great video! This is why I fish with lighter gear (spinning not bfs) as everything is so fun! Small craws on light shaky heads are one of my goto baits just because they work so well. The other thing I like about finesse baits is you can catch a variety of species: channel cats, crappie, stripe, white bass along with spotted and largemouths.

[@jeffreyblair1820]

Man that looked like an awesome day on the water Matt. Thank you for bringing us along. I fish a small, heavily pressured lake. I can not buy a bite to save my life. WOULD LOVE to have a day like that. Next best thing, watch a TacticalBassin video 👍🏻 Thanks Matt&Tim

[@Timmerman0602]

*Video Idea* Would love to see you guys come down here to Santee Cooper next year during the spring and do a day on the water where there is nothing but BFS used!!

[@JohnnyStabile]

I love BFS. Catching peacock bass on BFS is a blast. Thanks for turning me onto it guys!

[@smokinfasts1973]

I was out yesterday. The wind was howling. I was amazed at how well the curado bfs was able to cast against the wind. I was throwing a 1/4 oz top spin with a 2.8 Keitech and casting further into the wind than traditional rods with heavier baits. I just got into bfs this year and LOVE it!!!

[@rconner4053]

I used your link to get my Curado/Cashion BFS rig. I tied on a 1/10 oz ned lock hook and test casted it without any bait. WOW!! Distance, accuracy, no backlash. Did I mention WOW!! What a great recommendation you gave me. Thanks very much.

[@jasonbruno3483]

Happy you did this video, this week... I was out yesterday with a Shimano Enber 60 SP in gold with orange belly and caught some 2lbs smallies, a couple of Northern Pike, and it even provoked a 4+ foot musky to hookup twice. Luckily both times the musky got off without cutting my line. All on 8lbs PowerPro with a 6lbs fluorocarbon leader. What a blast!!! Hope you guys do more videos with BFS!

[@stormhunted]

Always fun to watch and I always learn something new every video, thank you 🎣

[@tacticalbassin]

Thank you Chris!

[@matthewrodriguez4073]

A few years ago I started fishing a local bait makers 3" craw on finesse spinning gear. I found some super small #2 hooks and used a 1/16 lead weight. It absolutely killed. Bass, crappie, panfish, and even a catfish. I am stoked to find that you guys are using something similar, because I have since moved states and haven't been able to find a small craw that worked that well ever since. I'm now so excited to try the ring craw!

[@FsJuicyJ]

I just wanted to say that because of this video, I bought a Cashion 7' L/F BFS rod and Tsurinoya Dark Wolf Ultra BFS reel, and a Megabass Karashi. Yesterday I took them out on the water with my kayak and on my 2nd cast with it I caught my biggest bass of the day, and 7 other bass after. BFS is no joke and has really made me enjoy fishing again. Love all the BFS videos you guys do and all the gear you recommend is killer.

[@dominickeen6091]

Awesome video last year I bought my first bfs rod the Cashion 6’10” ML and the zephyr caught a few decent ones on the 2.8 keitech with guppy head

[@johnnyweaver1300]

As far as a rod sticking over the edge of boat, ive had fish jump out of the water to get to it, good save, the 1st time heard about bfs was on this channel it looks super fun & i throughly enjoyed it Matt, ive telling everyone about this channel because yall cover everything in bass fishing & you have catches to to back it up!👍🎣

[@PythonDad]

The Karashi is such a great bait. Anyone who mainly fishes for crappie, bluegill, or other panfish should get a couple of them. Trout and white bass also love it. One that sinks faster would probably make a good walleye bait.

[@rm709]

Been fishing BFS my whole life without it being a “thing”. Micro bass lures were big in the 90s with smaller rods and reels; my Dad was a pioneer and never knew it! The new gear does work better, but the technique is the same. Loads of fish for a fun day out.

[@randallmiller572]

Looked really fun!! Can’t wait to get my hands on some BFS gear for inshore saltwater fishing!

[@hiwayhero]

love throwing 1/16 or less jigheads w/1.5-2” baits on Curado BFS & 7’ Dobyns 740c! fishing dinks, so much fun when big ones are testy or finicky. thanks for the video❤

[@stldavid]

This video has it all... nature sounds/scenery, a bass almost ripping a rod and reel off the deck of the boat, a miraculous save in response, a wondering cow... oh and some BFS fishing!

[@altus8312]

Got my first BFS combo this past weekend and caught 40-50 smallies on it Sunday. It’s a load of fun

[@adamboyce5220]

Good stuff! After watching your BFS videos I’m going to try this as a co in some upcoming tournaments. A lot of the guys on the river up here are sticks and it may be different enough to get bites they don’t. Thx TB!

[@all-americanlambs1596]

Great video and enjoyed the fun we saw when you were fishing BFS! Thought the BFS would be fun for some small ponds from the bank.

[@Lqviolin2]

Went out today with my new dobyns sierra ultra finesse and curado bfs reel. Got the Alphas air tw on the way and a kistler 3x ultra finesse rod on back order. Haven't had this much fun in years.

[@davidlanphere5817]

Great video, as always, and a great recovery.

[@alexwilliams8131]

Great video! I know how much fun you had out there! It’s hard for me to throw anything but BFS anymore!

[@clintonbruning]

I’m right there with you! I’ve had several 20+ lb limits and caught my two biggest bass of my life 8.8 and 8.3 on pressured Texas lakes since making the switch. Here’s a lake to a recent trip I did pretty good on if you wanna check it out kzbin.info/www/bejne/pIfRhp-Vf9CCf7c

[@ChavsADV]

This sort of supports a lesson I learned recently... Not all lakes have monsters. I downsized my baits and started catching fish. I was convinced I was going to hunt out a monster at this lake and lost a lot of fish and wasted a lot of time.

[@catboyzee]

Sidebar comment: I came to this video to study your techniques. But hearing all the birds singing in background as you're quietly trolling along is yet another reminder of why I love fishing so much. #respect

[@rafabonati7757]

Matt, as soon as you put that rod on the deck, I knew you would be in for it! Good thing your reaction time was fast.

[@dustinmcelreath5667]

That Daiwa hidden concept line is the first thing I spoiled my BFS reel with. That line is amazing. Managed a big old pike on it for one of the first catches.

[@rafaelmacedo6679]

without a doubt, the best fishing style/gear you can find out there, it is so dynamic! especially here in Canada where the Largemouth is not as big in the US, the BFS seems to be the only "consistent way" of catching them. Awesome video mate.

[@pacman_17]

Great video catching everything that bites on BFS. I'll have to check out the lures you were using.

[@fishing630addictionjcmg4]

The best 👌KZbin Chanel. Matt & Tim are the guys whit the knowledge for fish 🐟 thankz for sharing all the tricks hope get my pb this year keep up the good work 👏

[@tacticalbassin]

Thank you!!

[@conedx]

I found out BFS was a thing that existed a couple years ago and IMMEDIATELY got one. I love it so so much.

[@phatpakbaits]

We need more of these.. This market is starting to emerge and it’s such a game changer in how we fish . Keep ‘em coming. Can’t wait for gear to come down in pricing

[@clintonbruning]

It’s all I do on my channel. I’ve caught a bunch of BIG pressured Texas bass in the last year switching to small baits and light line. Here’s a link to a recent trip if you wanna check it out 🤙🏽 kzbin.info/www/bejne/pIfRhp-Vf9CCf7c

[@fish8five646]

The gear don’t have to be expensive, there’s other brands that aren’t expensive who were onto the bfs game a long time before it got really popular. The Reel Test, he does reviews on reels, he’s reviewed a handful of brands that can be had for cheap that actually perform great

[@clintonbruning]

@@fish8five646 the tsurinoya dark wolf is 85 bucks and it’s my favorite reel by far. I use mostly “budget” stuff but it still performs really well.

[@jesusflores7323]

yup, we just need the prices to catch up with the popularity. I enjoy watching Matt but damn, I don't think using nothing but $700 setups is the best way to introduce people to a whole new subset of fishing.

[@clintonbruning]

@@jesusflores7323 my dobyns sierras are 189 and my Tsu legend rod was 89. And the zephyrs and Tsu dark wolf are both under 80 bucks for a great performing reel. I can’t ever justify spending 300 bucks on a rod or reel either man.

[@toddpossum]

Thanks!

[@Marvld1]

I told you sometime back about P5 Siglett... It's insanely light. I'm glad you tried one

[@matthewlidrich2030]

Hey Matt, it's Matthew Alan Lidrich in the house. That is crazy that your name is almost the same as mine. Just throwing the BFS gear myself yesterday afternoon and for 1 1/2 hrs I was ripp'n some lips on some smallies. The bite has been spotty the last 2 weeks and it was a blast pulling out a bunch of fish under 1 lb. with the light stuff. I'm not a pro like you but I do like to toss a lure sometimes. Thanks for sharing your video's with us!

[@nealatthecrossfishing]

That looks like so much fun!! Gotta get me some of that gear!

[@tacticalbassin]

It's more fun than it looks!! You're going to love it!

[@atbfishing2816]

This is the type of fishing that gets young kids into the sport. Whenever I take my son out its downsized gear so he can catch plenty of fish. Great video!

[@TX_TOAST]

Tim little & Matt Allen appreciate y’all’s enthusiasm

[@bruceesterline3170]

I know the feeling and it is a good feeling when I fish for bluegill I use a ultralight spidermite spinning comb with 6 pound braid and it will cast a mile with a roadrunner and when I catch a bass it's like catching a 5 pounder on ultralight.👍

[@FreedomFishing]

BFS is a lot of fun. Even giving the 1 lbers a little drag to pull has been a blast.

[@Matthiaskyriakidis]

I’ve been so curious about this glad to be able to see it now!

[@tacticalbassin]

It's incredibly fun. If you're on the edge... its worth trying 👍🏼

[@Matthiaskyriakidis]

@@tacticalbassin I think I’ll give it a go, thanks!

[@christianousa9193]

I have been using the Zman TRD CrawZ with a lot of success and I have a friend who lives at the coast smashing the redfish using the TRD CrawZ on the Zman weighted EWG hook.

To much fun right there. I gotta try that Karashi

It's special.. I mean it's TOTALLY SPECIAL! Your a riot bro!

Awesome!!!

[@keenanmoore264]

You guys ever do a video on the free rig? I always come to you first when I want to learn a new technique but I don't see one when I put in the search. The detailed list in the description is HUGE for learning what type of set up to throw any given technique.

[@1ts3asy]

Matt the scenery is movie worthy. It’s so amazing it almost looks fake. 🔥

[@tacticalbassin]

Thats East Tennessee, it's gorgeous!

[@SamEichers]

Not quite the same majestic mornings you have down there in the mornings with the goose. Nothing beats an early morning fishing with the calling of loons up here in the north.

[@pauleye6852]

Fly rod and reel is the next level of BFS.

[@nathanbrinker1149]

This dude makes it look easy

[@poppy.fishing]

I bought my first BFS setup this year. It's unbelievable how well you can cast a small bait.

[@tacticalbassin]

Isn't it amazing?! Wayyyy too much fun!

Watching this with my son, he says, “dad, this man must be having a lot of fun, he chuckles each time he catches a fish!” “Yes son, he is having ALL the fun”

[@Triple87]

I laughed so hard at the bass that almost took your rod. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I was expecting a 2 pounder, and it was a 2 ouncer. 🤣🤣🤣

[@scottbrungard8322]

Matt, for top water you have to try the Imakatsu Dilemma popper, it’s so much fun and you can walk it really easy! It’s hard to find.

[@scottkroger6123]

I was just in a Kayak bass tourney and was using my BFS and ended up snagging and landing a 45-50lb carp! Just let the drag work!! Little baits catch big fish!! Lol!!

[@kevinconrad7222]

Jointed claw 70 and a 1/8 oz buzzbait next please so much fun.

[@quentintincher8323]

I can't believe you haven't purchased any of the JDM BFS reels with how fanatical you are with tackle.

He throws an Aldebaran BFS in most of his other BFS videos

[@lannyseals2084]

Hey Matt what an awesome day of fishing! I have yet to really get into the bait finesse setup but was wanting to ask you a question,do you think you will still need to apply any spinning setups while you're out on the water or does the bfs setup take care of it? As always, thanks for the awesome work you do

[@hiwayhero]

next buy will def be Daiwa 704 Presso UL travel and Daiwa Revros 1000-cp . UL always in the Jeep! Thanks Matt

[@magellanstravels]

I like different spin on bass angling. Where is this post card of a lake at? Great work.

[@MrDonohuea]

Ark has an invoker limited ML in 6'8" I believe, Its a great BFS rod. Much lighter than the shimano ML, but still fast.

[@jackturner1446]

Great video Matt! I got two JDM Aldebaran 22 and paired them with the Dobyns Sierra SUF700 rod and have had a blast. I sppoled the Sufix nanobraid 10Lb on one and Varivas PE# 0.6 (10Lb) on the other. Wanted to know if the JDM fishing line was worth it but haven't decided yet. Love all your videos Matt, especially when you take the time to explain everything. I see Tim twitch a little when your long winded but know, the viewers love every detail!!!

[@tacticalbassin]

Ha! Thanks Jack!! I really appreciate that!

[@Tbowie13]

Those are incredible setups. I use the D. Sierra SUF 701C (the 7' fast action) for micro jerkbaits and the Karashi (that Matt keeps giving away the juice on). Those Aldebarens are incredible as well, I started with the 51 (I fish lefty) and then had to buy more. Once you use an Aldebaren for Jerkbaits or small/mid crankbaits, you're ruined, and don't want to use anything else. I can't tell you how many times I've been able to make casts into the wind with a Vision 110 or Jr, when buddies were backlashing with much heavier, easier to cast baits.

[@moman4kids1]

I'm telling you a phenix RECON ELITE in 682/712 is a great rod and at a great price - they have a great warranty - i use it for underpins okashira heads poppers shaky

[@mikecamalier2653]

Great video. Bassmd

[@FinkeFishing]

I could see how bfs gear could be advantageous for tournament fishing as well particularly for co-anglers fishing highly pressured tournament lakes and behind a boater at that

[@gregchilders7643]

I'm 59 and have been bfs for about 30 years i have a bps pro finnesse baitcaster on a 4ft 10 in eagle claw Featherlite light action rod (1/16 -3/8oz)perfect for tossing crankbaits ,jerkbaits, spinnerbaits and topwaters.i still use spinning rod for dropshoting and lures under 1/8oz.dont know why there is so many haters ?

[@jbertran1972]

Hey Matt have you got your hands on a Shimano expride bfs rods yet? I have the 6' 3 light and it's incredible!

[@JoeyB7615]

To me BFS is similar to fishing as a kid how every fish is an awesome experience

[@chrisbaldwin7734]

Yeah, I really need to get some BFS stuff. I'm thinking this would be really good for highland reservoirs since your forced to use lighter line.

[@HobieWanKenobi]

Good thing is that you can use 6-8lb fluorocarbon and not have the issues like spinning reels do

[@dragngt]

I just picked up a BFS system and I can’t wait to start using it. Thanks for the tips on some baits to try.

[@tacticalbassin]

You're going to have a blast!

[@brandonolson1959]

It funny that rod almost left your boat and at the same we both laughed about lol

[@midwestfischerman]

Matt, did you see Lew's launched a BFS reel??? When can we expect a review of the Lew's Custom Lite SS (Shallow Spool) Casting Reel?

[@W4ND3RFUL]

Hey Matt, I recently purchased a Dobyns SUF700C at the recommendation of one of your videos and am loving it, but I find I don't get the best hookset when fishing tiny texas rigs like you do in this video. Would a Dobyns Sierra ML 6'9" spinning compare to the Cashion Icon ML 6'10" for this purpose?

[@crankbaiter_IndoCad]

BFS is always fun!

[@KCoutdoors1]

Awesome video.. Matt, as someone whos lucking for budget gear and looking to get into finesse fishing. Should I look for a spinning combo or go all out to BFS? Sorry if this was answered in a past video! Thanks for all yall do.

[@aboveaveragebayleaf9216]

Absolutely not. Spinning will give you a much better bang for your buck for budget finesse.

[@dustinharris8828]

I’m surprised y’all don’t throw the megabass baby pop-x poppers some, it’s only 3/16 of a oz and 2in long. Awesome video Matt!!🤙🏻🤙🏻

[@tacticalbassin]

Oh we do, just didn't on this day 👍🏼

[@afgcomputing3639]

Not sure if its possible, but just like you share the tackle used on the day, can you share fishing conditions like water temp etc?

[@dawsonlyday]

Have y’all ever tried a Texas rigged Roboworm. It’s become one of my favorite weedless bfs lures.

[@The_Multi-species_Angler]

I'm Shock you are aiming for small fish on bfs when you could target nice size fish on bfs. And some of these fish was nice size. What's your favorite bfs reel if you don't mind me asking? Good to see you linking the gear as well!!

[@adammitchell3462]

Yeah man,i hate seeing people relate small finesse baits with small fish. You can absolutely catch quality fish on neds and wacky rigs. In fact, i always tend to catch more and bigger fish when im finesse fishing,thats truly where my confidence actually is.

[@connorhany351]

You mentioned how the karashi will just get eaten over and over until they get hooked. The only other bait I've ever had that experience with is the showerblows 105. I was hesitant to finally pull the trigger on one because of the price, but they can't stay away from it.

[@garrettcheeseman3787]

Hi Matt, I have been having issues with my knots failing with fluorocarbon on hooksets. I have tried a handful of knots but all of them seem to fail from the shock of a hook set every once in a while. I am wondering if you have found one that doesn't have this issue?

[@johncoyote6755]

Matt you should try the Sammy 65. I have been wrecking them on it.

[@dylanlaughman8126]

What rod in the dobyns kaden or champion line would you suggest throwing 6" trash fish and 6" mag draft on. I was looking at the 745, 735flip or the 765flip
