Flipping MATS on Lake GUNTERSVILLE! How to fish THICK grass!

Catching bass out of thick vegetation is definitely one of the funnest ways to catch them. Big rod, big line, big weight, and your all set. Sometimes it can seem a little overwhelming trying to decipher good areas from not so good areas though. Come along with me on Lake Guntersville as we catch a few fish, and I will give you a few tips on how to break down matted grass.

Great video. Couple of buddies and I are coming down to gunnersville for the first time in mid October. I am trying to learn as much as I can before we go.

I was literally on the internet this morning trying to figure out how to identify the different aquatic grasses and this helped more than a quick google search! Great lil video!

[@BrandonLesterFishing]

Good video! I learned a lot about fishing the thick stuff. That’s been my weakness. I feel like now I have a little bit of skill to bring a biggin out. Thanks bud for a great video.

Keep these videos coming! I love watching, learning and fishing grass!!! How do you break down grass...sunny, cloudy? What things are you looking for...cuts, mixed grass, ditches? How and why do they setup in different places of the grass? When do you know when to switch baits to say a frog?

[@BrandonLesterFishing]

Frog fishing video coming soon! Thanks for watching!

Great video

[@terrycuzzort3181]

Brandon great video, I fish that same grass line with frogs and top water baits. Question, can you explain a little on the bead you stated you had on that setup? Was the bead between the hook and sinker or was the bead above the sinker? Also what purpose does the bead serve. TIA

Amazing video Brandon. Where can I find that rod? Tried looking and can't seem to find it anywhere.

[@BrandonLesterFishing]

It will be released in the spring of 2022. Keep your eyes out for it!

[@noahmercer3295]

When will that rod come out?

[@BrandonLesterFishing]

Set for spring of 2022. Thanks for watching!

[@joejohnson3968]

Obviously you can catch mat/punching fish when its cloudy....better when its sunny?

[@BrandonLesterFishing]

I would definitely say its better when sunny yes, but doesn't have to be. Thanks for watching!
