Fall Fishing For Bass Is Easy!! (Here's How We Do It)

[@midwestfischerman]

The bailiff in the courtroom to which I am assigned landed an ENORMOUS 7 pound largemouth on a jerkbait a week ago. That's a TRUE MONSTER for a northern strain largemouth in North Central Illinois! I plan to hit the same waters during the forecasted WARM FRONT this week! Wish me lunker!🎣😆

[@tacticalbassin]

That's awesome!! Congratulate him for us if the opportunity presents itself!

[@Tbowie13]

Nice, it's jerkbait time....my favorite baits to fish! Good luck, bang em up!

[@jonboatjake]

dang where at? i fish the chain a lot

[@chrisfetner332]

Come to Texas.

[@timwamsley6231]

You guys are so dialed in as a team. Catch fish, show camera, net next fish all seamlessly! Pretty impressive.

[@tacticalbassin]

I suppose we've had a couple practice rounds over the years 😋

[@chefmcpedro6969]

Watching this and seeing how easy they make it look honestly makes me never want to go fishing again.... anyone else feel this way?? Lol

[@jamesc.murray5932]

This video is confirmation that if anyone has listened and acted accordingly to your previous library of videos, and went to school on them/took them seriously enough to understand bass fishing, and then applied the knowledge learned using/buying the proper equipment and using the proper techniques, anyone can become a good bass angler, anywhere in the United States. Sure, November through February in most parts of this country are the months most people don't even want to bass fish. But you two on the last day of October, 2022 just SLAYED the different types of bass on the TVA using all sorts of techniques (especially bigger largemouth with the S-Waiver 168), when most people wouldn't even think of getting into a boat. FISHERMEN YOU TWO MOST DEFINITELY ARE!!!!!!!!!!! TIGHT-LINES, FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@jodynoll5366]

love watching you two fish together. thanks for doing what you do

[@tacticalbassin]

Thanks Jody!

[@sinisterblue01camaro]

I enjoy watching yall fish. I love fishing, but this year has been a drag when I go out. Jsut can't seem to figure anything out. Thanks for all the tips and your videos.

Tim’s a brave man boat flipping those bass on a lipless.

[@basspro009]

Great video and nice fish. You do make a lot of us feel stupid to watch you make it look so simple . I am even going out of the same ramp 😂.

[@michaelleady9089]

Tom was all smiles out there lol

[@nateriley4067]

You guys are the best. Whenever my dad and I catch a double, the only thing we caught was each other's line.

[@kentbrown5369]

Love watching you guys fish together. I would love another raw and uncut video with both of you. Thank you for all you do to help us become better anglers.

[@BarryP]

That was quite a session, boys! You went out there for a purpose and absolutely crushed it! It's awesome when a vid comes together like that.

[@michaelleady9089]

Talk The Talk walk the walk love it

[@JimAllhiser]

I've never done too well on a LV500 but I have been throwing it more because of you guys. This last Sunday I was able to get a legit 5lbs spotted bass! Thanks for the confidence to throw that bait!

[@clintonbruning]

Y’all are way better men than me if I figure out a bite I’m running that program all day 😂. Also thanks so much for turning me on to the BFS fishing. I’ve had a blast throwing it in Texas and I’ve got some BIGS on BFS tackle lately. That 2.8” Keitech and guppy head is a phenomenal bait. Thanks so much for all the info and content.

Love these videos where Tim and Matt are both on the front deck just laying into them. Happy Halloween 🎃

[@tacticalbassin]

Thanks Chris!!

[@michaeljohnson9274]

This has been a great video. Love watching the learning videos. My son likes to fish. So we just bought a little aluminum boat and trying to figure this fishing thing out. Honestly, we’re having a hard time. So videos like this help. Thank you!

[@rvfishingyet]

You held a solid class of numerous patterns. Great video.

[@FishingDohaR]

Nice way to catch the fish 🎣👌

[@FishingWithDL]

Gotta love when you can go out catch 'em just about any way you want. Can we get a jet boat video soon please? 🙏

[@tacticalbassin]

Well... it will have to be a little bit. It may or may not have sunk the other day after picking a fight with some very sharp rocks 😂 It'll be welded up and ready for another battle in a few weeks!

[@FishingWithDL]

@@tacticalbassin ah man, sorry to hear that. I know how that goes all too well. Fog set in early one night on a river here in middle TN and me and a buddy ran his jet boat straight onto an island. 😂 Tight Lines fellas 🎣. Thanks for all you guys do

[@tacticalbassin]

It happens quick!! We decided to send it through some exposed rock and you know it goes... once you're committed, you're committed.

[@WhereWeWild]

Man that’s a fun day right there 😎🤙🏽 Good stuff guys.

[@hp_outdoors]

I love fishing in the fall

[@sbaner5]

First, it's good to see the two of you fishing together. I always enjoy that. However, you guys are killing me. I just spent four days on Lake of the Ozarks catching lots of dinks and only one keeper. Here you are, cold wind, blue bird skies, and rocking them.

[@chrischrist7982]

Y'all are 2 of the greatest fisherman I've ever seen! Awesome

[@tacticalbassin]

Thanks Chris!!

[@upthecreekyt]

Love watching you guys put in work! The way y'all communicate and seamlessly fish around each other is a lesson in its own. The fact that you have the confidence to leave biting fish to find another type of bite is something we'd all like to be able to do. Thanks for the upload guys! 🤙

[@Lee-vg8yk]

Mat, Tim, very nice keep it coming love what your doing

[@muddogger]

Great video. Two thumps up

[@robertholt2793]

I am so impressed how easy yall make it look when conditions are not ideal. I am dying to wet a line.

[@brandonsmith606]

I really enjoy when you two get out together and just have a great time fishing.

[@bobfishnut]

Fall transition. Gotta love it!

[@TheCaliforniaBeekeeper]

That was a good spot. Why did we leave? 😆

Man I love these TN river videos. I fish Chick alot, hope to run into you guys at the ramp one day. You did a lot better than i have the last few times out.

[@coreyhammond5100]

It was just really nice seeing you two together again. Your content is super valuable to me, and seeing you two together makes that content even better. Thank you!!

[@chrisboyd1408]

Awesome, thanks for sharing!

[@kesterharding1819]

I want to say thank you for all the knowledge. I slayed them on the top water Tim recommended and the megabass 110. It was my best day on the water. Thanks again.

[@freshandsaltyjohnny]

Meanwhile in my state, skunking for over a week now. Not just me either, tons of people aren't catching crap, tossing every dang lure ever created including BFS and nothing. That 80/20 rule kickin in hard.

[@streetoctane1878]

i enjoy both of yall equally, but i love when you fish together, ya'll just work so smooth togethor! Im coming to Chick this weekend, maybe we'll pass paths!

[@captnse]

Good to see you catching them on the lipless, Tim, even though you didn’t mention the bait in your previous vid….I’ve always caught a lot of bass on a lipless in Late Oct-Nov.

[@mikeyjohnson9596]

Thanks for the tips guys. I got my personal best largemouth yesterday on the megabass oneten. The water was cooler so the largies were more aggressive than the peacocks for a nice change.

[@tacticalbassin]

Thats awesome!! Way to go!!

[@dant8213]

You guys always impress me with how well you share the boat and avoid tangles...wish I had a good partner like that

[@tacticalbassin]

It just takes time. You'll learn to predict their movements in the boat 👍🏼

[@Czarlite]

That power plant in the back at 10:30 looks like a good spot for cold winter fishing ☢️🐟

[@fordraven5884]

Amazing fishing experience 👌

[@biblebeltfishing]

I appreciate all thar you guys do. I take the tips and apply it out on the water. Plus, you guys have helped me produce better videos for my Channel

[@rconner4053]

Glad you guys took time to have fun more than work. Still, I’m watching how you work the various baits trying to learn. It’s always fun.

[@tacticalbassin]

We're glad you enjoyed it! You can learn a lot watching how the baits are worked right before the bites.

[@Tbowie13]

Was this the cold front that blew in yesterday? We had rain in the Carolinas with yesterday's front. Good deal, glad you guys are busting on em! I need to get out on Norman ASAP! Maybe Lake James next week.

[@doughboy9076]

That looks like a great day🙂

[@johno7435]

Another great video and tips. Finally ordered an S-Wave and will try it and some of your other tips on Headwaters Lake next weekend 😉

[@USMCdad470]

Wow, what a hell of a day fishing!! Thanks guys for sharing. Very much appreciated

[@chadsmith5146]

Enjoyed the video just like every other one that you guys put out but I especially like this one you guys were out there demonstrating showing how and talking about everything and anything how you caught and everything really good video thank you

Tennessee River looks beautiful. I would love to go fishing there.

[@haroldrogers6566]

Only on their end of the Tennessee River. Down here on the Kentucky Lake end we had a major Asian Carp spawn this year. plus no grass. And Pickwick is going down fast as AC have made their way there now. And Pickwick has been beat all to hell every weekend since covid started. The Wick is not what it used to be. The best thing is we also had the best shad spawn we’ve seen in years. Hopefully this will help Kentucky Lake recover a little bit. But it is a long way from being what it was. If you catch 5 keepers, your either good with electronics, or lucky 😁👍

[@rogerrios9539]

@@haroldrogers6566 my buddy lives up north here in California. He lives in Modesto. Planning next year to go frog fishing with him. He's in a lot of tournaments. I'm so excited never been on a boat for bass fishing especially with a frog lure.

[@toddwinegar7365]

Thanks TB , for turning me into a BEAST on the water. Everybody says all yall do is advertise! LOFL, IDIOTS!!!! SSSHHHH. But for real thanks. Even if I get blanked today I have the confidence to know that WILL NOT happen often. East TN baby.

Great video another video to give me confidence to throw the glide. Besides changing the hooks do you guys modify the S waiver any other way?

[@tacticalbassin]

No changes whatsoever besides hooks 👍🏼

[@jimwarden9617]

Really enjoy the fishing vids. Thanks.

[@bass60guy]

Is the water rather shallow where you are because it appears the trolling motor is churning up muddy water?

[@jbertran1972]

Hey Matt how's the Shimano Expride 7'6 MH handle the s waiver 168? I've been searching for a rod for the 168 any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for the great videos!

He lives in Modesto he fishes a lot on the delta. He invited me to go fishing with him on the delta next year. For frog fishing especially I never bass fished on a boat. I'm so excited for next year in the summer!

[@betorodriguez5599]

Mat Tim, does a glide bait with a big wobble good or bad ? Just getting in to the “big bait” grinding. 😅

[@CaesarSmithFishing]

What length rod was Matt using on his lipless crank combo?

[@KiNg0fShReD]

Awesome fishing! What combo did you use for the Jackall Kaera?

[@tacticalbassin]

Shimano Expride 7'2" Heavy with a 13 Fishing Concept C2 and 50 lb Sufix 131 Braid

[@KiNg0fShReD]

@@tacticalbassin Wow thank you, i thought it was a bfs reel or something since that frog is so small. Awesome!

[@urbanothepopeofdeath]

I live in Upstate. (NY). I have a small pond (1.5 acres) Plenty of bass (around 1 to 3 lb) and a plentiful population of Bluegill . Once the weather "turns", typically now, the fish stop biting. where do they go and can you still catch them? (well YOU could, but can I? lol) Pond depth is anywhere from 2' to as deep as 15'. Do they just shut down as the water temp gets cold?

[@tacticalbassin]

Their metabolism slows tremendously but they still eat. Incredibly slow moving baits at the absolute deepest part of the pond is where I'd start 👍🏼

[@mikeantes9597]

I guess it is easy when your on one of the best fisheries in the country come to Pa and do that.Then your doing something

[@anangrycustomer2913]

Oh Shnipes, is that watts bar?!

[@billycarson3408]

I wish it were as easy for me as you guys say. I keep trying and I’m struggling.

[@biblebeltfishing]

For the past 2 weeks its been tough. Winning weight tournaments have been 10lbs on OLD HICKORY lake in Tennessee. Any suggestions

[@tacticalbassin]

Try to ignore those reports and fish hard. 12 lbs won on Chick the other day but as you can see, the bite is actually quite good.

[@biblebeltfishing]

@TacticalBassin I just couldn't find them. I was in the tournament. I caught one 2lber all day. Been going out searching. And catching crazy amounts of DRUM

[@JimbobZ17]

@@biblebeltfishing Cumberland and Tn. Rivers are totally different. Got skunked Friday for the first time all year on Cordell. Nobody was catching nothing.
