Top Bass Fishing Lures for the Month of August

[@dylanbosskinser354]

Hell ya love when the notification to a new Jacob wheeler vid pops up

[@kurtplank9772]

Thanks for the tips. Good luck Champlain is a great NY fishery.

[@peatmossoutdoors8950]

Watched this video last night, went out to a local lake this morning and absolutely slayed some largemouths and spots on a 10 inch worm. Had a blast. Thanks JW for sharing your knowledge 🙌🏻

[@steverogers1298]

Thanks Jacob for taking the time to share these great baits with us! GOD BLESS YOU

[@dank-mcpuffins1267]

I just moved to Chattanooga and I'm finally able to fish the same waters as you JW, now if I only had a boat and a selection like your shop wall. My kids join in watching your vids and when were out shore bashing they say "what would wheeler do" when looking through the tackle box.

[@Woodduck-k4o]

Well you can just move back out to, because you were invited here by us long term living Tennessee people that have lived in this state all our lives,you people keep on moving in here and it's causing over crowding and kaos on the road ways now so Tennessee is NOT the answer u got it so buzz off to another state sucker

[@mikegoodman8136]

August is tough on my blue back herring lake. I ust to winn 97 % of tourney until the herring got put in. At 73 maby l am too old. Ust to fish big tourney trails. Last time I fish Chick. l end up 4th. didn't get a 12" to win Ranger fully equipped. Now it hurts to loose so much. Don't guess U have time for me a thaught. U are really blessed and amazing. Happy for you.

[@benniemaxwell2869]

With the cold nights and the vegetation already dying here in Michigan on my home lake, the Bass are really moving shallow. Had a good 3 days last weekend and Monday using chatter baits, beavers on Trig and a frog

[@rbrady125]

Great video as usual, as an Indiana transplant from Birmingham Alabama, I really relate to your fishing tactics especially on Racoon Lake, where I was able to absolutely slay the biguns with a square bill and shaky head. Best of luck to you this year, and I will be rootin for you and DC

[@timtighe9718]

Great job of explaination. Straight useful info.

[@thomasjohnston7896]

Thanks for the video. Ready for some cooler weather, these hot days ain’t cutting it

[@WheelerFishing]

I appreciate you watching! This weather has got to break soon

[@feleciarodriguez6793]

I needed this video so bad!! It is hot in Texas and I’m new to fishing for bass. We are struggling.

[@WheelerFishing]

Man this time of year can be tough for sure! Definitely takes a while to get a solid pattern but they are out there biting somewhere on the lake/river.

[@robertmccormick1612]

Smallmouth in Canada goes after craws or craw like baits. Gotta fish everything slow like you said. Great info though and content as always! Thanks 🙏

[@chrisfoley3320]

Your spot on man, same line up in my boat but i use a baby brushhog for flipping.

[@jamesmims5850]

Slim bait was key this weekend on Toledo Bend. Rigged a zoom trick worm on a Carolina rig. 22 ft of water. That was key. They didn’t want a speed craw or a fluke.

[@erniesanders3724]

Great tips JW. Thanks from Western Kentucky. Good luck on your upcoming tournament.

[@ufcguruofficial714]

Jwheels,the Rapala Xrap jerkbait in pink, orange, clown etc. All the bright colors I fish all summer in 40ft visibility for smallmouth and they destroy it. Something about these bright colors, smallmouth go crazy for. Also drop swim Megabass hazedong shad along the grass line transition to gravel bottom. Those two techniques never fail every summer.

[@brandongray1294]

I (and many) would love for you to do a Dale hollow mid October video. A lake breakdown type thing. For the Largies and the Smallies. Whatcha think?

[@joshjohnson3352]

I've been killing it on a big worm about all I've been throwing

[@350zVen]

Fished a tournament at SML in VA. Was using the green pumpkin slim shake worm on a shaky head. Ended catching a 6lb 0oz. Largemouth that not only was the big fish if the day, but ended up being the 3rd biggest fish ever caught in the 13 years of the tournaments history, Biggest was 6lb 5oz. So I got close lol 😆

[@SuperBroker9759]

I never miss a video from you Jacob. I love these monthly bait vids bro. So helpful.

[@timtighe9718]

Great video. Great info. Thanks

[@bassingman9911]

Great tip on using the clear topwater bait.

[@J-Rod73]

Damn, August is DEFINITELY dog days of summer here in Florida!! Been struggling to get bites, even early morning (8am for me). I'm been sticking to the 5" Senko wacky rigged. I'm getting bites, but they are not like it was in the spring 😢

[@FlatbottomFeverFishing]

Awesome man! Come down to north Alabama and show me some tips on wheeler or Wilson!!! 🪱🪱🪱🐟🐟🐟

[@greygoose117]

I caught a 6 lber yesterday evening on a 10” black & blue berkley power worm.

[@Exicutioner89]

I’ve been catching all my bass this year on the Ned Rig…trying to really dial in my finesse game lately

[@ScruffyCityFishing]

Great video and tips! I need to work on my swim jig skills. Seems like everyone catches fish on them.

[@michaelmassey5916]

Hey Jacob, Thanks for being such an awesome guy! Question? On crank baits and Jerkbaits can you tell me when to use or not use floating vs Suspending model baits?

[@ethanweston6560]

Where would you cast a worm. Would you flip docks or try deep

[@lbgames490]

That was a great video thank you for the tips lets get them uh ding🛎️🛎️🛎️

[@rexista1]

Great video sir.

[@Zlegacy34]

Love the content Jacob, hopefully I can go try some of these lures out today. 👍

[@bigdawgbassin9001]

Great video Jacob, Good luck at Champlain

[@c.d.robirds324]

Love the tips! What brand square bill are you using. Thx

[@Luke-yk9yo]

Can you please do a rod/reel care video?

[@rmfishing9979]

Love your videos - what size and model Paradigm spinning reel do you throw the most - and for the shakey head setup?

[@jackchristensen7725]

Great video as always JW! Quick question: I didn’t see a leader in your swim bait, do you throw straight braid with that? Sub question: What other baits do you throw where you don’t use a leader? Me - Topwater.

[@lazaropenalver9262]

What would choose as the weight for a swim jig? 3/8? 1/2? 1/4?

[@chadjackson4786]

you ever use any japanese braid? some of them are like 1/2 the diameter for the same strength compared to big box store lines like spiderwire

[@williamwhite4676]

Do you use straight braid or do you use a leader?

[@scotthurt4134]

Great info .. thanks for sharing.

[@gagekehn7920]

hey man love the videos and the content let alone the perfomances you've been putting down. im fishing a big amatuer tournament on Old Hickory Lake first week of september any go to baits i need to have on my boat for some Dings ... Thanks in Advance for the help

[@keithbutkus3161]

How come don't try Spitten Image, Excalibur for top water? They have such great real colors? Thanks

[@elijrpotomacriverbassmaste3179]

Cants wait to see u up on Champlain

[@stacyjackson2786]

Do a walk through of your Aluminum Boat. I would like to see it.

[@erikhendrickson1536]

Jacob, what size hook do you use on the trench hog and the bandito bugs

[@taylormoore4991]

Great tips

[@elimyers2305]

I’m ready for the fall

[@Chiefdixon]

See you in NY great video

[@elco_dave]

Hey my man whats a good bait to use in center hill lake

[@levi_fishing]

So what rod do you throw your crankbaits on?

[@jamescaspersamanthalintner4767]

Yeah the vibrating jig on my home lake it dies off really fast pretty much after the month of June you about can't buy a bite on a vibrating jig I can fish right behind my buddy in the front of the boat he can be throwing a vibrating jig and I'll throw a swim jig in the same water same cover and I'll get two bites to every one that he gets sometimes 3 especially later in the year

[@clayfarmer2160]

Do you like the pencil popper?

[@judsonphenicie1397]

I’ve seen you bite the top off of the trick worm style worms several times. Does that help you rig them up better? So that the hook eye comes out better, or is that just if you are using a jig head?

[@WheelerFishing]

Typically I do that when I’m rigging it on a shakey head. I really don’t know if it matters it’s just something I got in a habit of doing it

[@hamptonshull9301]

I'd love to see you fish the opens win one then win the classic

[@johnbracewell3700]

I'd love to see him fish 1 bass master elite series and win it, then go back to MLF and not touch BASS again. It'd be such a slap to the BASS guys 😅🤣

[@brianhershberger4429]

So when you say your using 40 lb. braid, are you adding a fluro leader to that? And if so what are all the factors going into size choice for the fluro?

[@WheelerFishing]

Nope just straight braid on my topwater as of late. Other than prop baits that’s when I’ll put a 20lb 2 ft mono leader attached to the braid.

[@oldtoad76]

Played

[@travisfitzpatrick1866]

No one ever mentions Ohio........it's okay Jacob ur still my favorite...I'll be fishing against you one day sir

[@zacpearson1878]

Suffix braid is so good still playing around with flouros personally, also never caught a fish on a spook

[@shaneevans3935]

What's the trick to KY Lake?

[@tnfishing9089]

Go smash em this week and get that AOY!!

[@VictorGarcia-nx7vo]

I need advice on how to catch a bass in Georgia

[@eric4seasons]

I'm in north Carolina and I've been hammering them on a yamasenko baby bass 5 inch worm, 4/0 ewg hook no weight and weedless. I use a 7ft medium heavy fsst shimano rod and shimano slx dc baitcaster with 15 pound flouro. I caught 6 this morning and the biggest was 7 lbs 5 ounces. I also have been throwing frogs but they've just been swiping at it. The lake by my house is full of grass and it's hard to use anything else.

[@stevenbernard9725]

I personally don't fish this time of year in Florida,. Too dang hot.

[@delcrowell1273]

Are you replacing your square bills, from plastic bills, to the jabber jaw type?

[@WheelerFishing]

Not all of them. The Jabber jaw has its time and place. It’s more of a wider wobbling squarebill. Sometimes I want a tighter wobble so I use baits like the BX brat

[@andrewbland7109]

The best baits for August just so happen to be these brand new releases from Catch Co. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😅. Pretty obvious you went from advice to ad pretty quickly.

[@mmmkay7729]

Jmoney!!

[@jonnyboyd7715]

Lol this lady at the boat ramp asked me if I heard of Jacob wheeler, I was like yea the pro bass guy. Shes like you remind me of him. Lol. I was o thank you. I look nothing like you btw. But a good compliment.

[@WheelerFishing]

That’s great! 😂

[@jonnyboyd7715]

@@WheelerFishing mabe cause my boat has the same colors as you idk. It's a little odd but I'm cool with it.

[@nated4108]

I want a boat more and more everyday

[@IC_Bass]

Shaky Head catches them year round

[@micahcrewson5374]

Says up north and doesn't mention us Canadians!

[@hculebro]

Guess you must be sponsored by googan.....

[@greygoose117]

Academy. And academy carries googan baits

[@JayJay-ii5un]

Find something else to do.aug fishing sucks
