Tactical Bassin is the most informative bass fishing channel on utube!You guys have given so much knowledge to fisherman across the world!We love you guys and keep doing what your doing!Great winter tips!
I’m not really a bass fisherman, more of a multi species fisherman. But when I watch your videos it makes me want to fish for bass. I don’t feel the arrogance I feel with other bass anglers! I appreciate it!
I couldnt put my finger on it but thats it they are a lot like that one teacher some people get. It just clicks. One history teacher is the only reason I graduated HS
Y’all have convinced me that I did not know about fishing in the winter/cold. Thanks for the advice!! We hit 30’s las week in Oklahoma and I landed a couple and a decent one! Will be working to get them all winter
Thank you both for all you do!!! I have always wondered where they went. I fish from shore and there are spots I can’t get to and it’s the places you talk about in your videos that I can’t reach. Thank you again for all you do!
Great informative video! The best part of the video for me is how u show with your hands how to work a bait. That is so helpful to me. Thank u for that visual training!
I’m having surgeries over this winter... elbow and both wrists! Can’t wait for next spring! My last few surgeries, I’ve had 4 surgeries in the last five years on my shoulders ugh. I’m glad to finally be done with my military injuries!
Help a fella out and let me have your old electronics!! Dang your fishfinder is like a TV screen!! 😂😂😂 Thats so awesome! I’m squinting and got to get my nose about 5 inches from mine to see it during the day
I believe the in-line spinners are a great bass catcher during this time. You can cast it out let it sink then reel. Reel it fast or slow. The blade puts out a very good vibration. I found one on the shore and tied it on. Caught 4 bass on four cast in tbe late fall. I think there something to these in-line spinner or Mepps style lures. The color was Chartreuse with white hair on the treble hook. Buy one and give it a try. It was a bigger bait size. Shawn
I really needed this information Saturday morning here in south Alabama...we struggled to catch them in cool high water. Great info Matt, thanks Brother!
You know its good when after the first view I get breakfast ready and watch everything all over again. So thank you, as it's getting colder here(PNW) I need all the inspiration I can handle to get in my yak.
Video is 2 years old.. but somehow I just had it come up on my CZcams page. Great info!! I just picked up some trash fish. Hoping to catch ole Chester soon.
Amazing information for transitioning to cold weather fishing. You nailed it Matt. Thanks for the tips from Western Kentucky. God Bless you, Tim and your families.
Sorry to hear youre in western KY. Used to be the place to be. Im in central KY, now cumberland dale hollow green river cedar creek are the places to be. Really sad whats happened to KY and Barkley.
@@patrickgraycarek6027 Sorry to hear you are in Central Ky, Dale Hollow and Cumberland used to be the place to go, I live in Middle Tennessee, Chickamauga, Nickajack, Center Hill and Watts Bar are the places to be lol
I've got 2 weeks of fishing left that I need to make count here on the central coast of CA. Then, I need to winterize the motor and cover the boat 'cuz I'm getting lumbar surgery. I'll be on my ass for a month or 2 except for therapy. I planned it this way so I'm ready for the spring bite! Hope that pans out! 😩
Great video. Looking forward to throwing my HUD. Being in the south, I still feel that we are in fall pattern. Anyone else agree? Water temps in the mid to low 60s
Love your videos , very informational , now have found the bass in my area , and able to target them effectively with the right baits .. Been fishing everyday for a week , haven't been blown out yet ..
Where do bass go in the Potomac River (river systems) in the winter please make a video on this, lol. I love you guys videos, and I hope you can help a fellow angler out.
Love waking up to your videos! One question what to do when i’m fishing the fall to winter transition in a small weed bottom lake that they primarily eat crawdads?
Of course I get home from being skunked on my Kayak and then I get to watch this...... Gonna have to make another Tackle Warehouse order haha. Thanks !!!
Matt you and Tim are the most informative anglers out..... I watch all of you guys videos and I am always going out and applying your tips to my fishing. I live in the Midwest in Missouri about 40 miles from Lake of the Ozarks where the water get extremely cold and I don't have electronics on my boat yet, so how do you guys suggest I find these fish and what's the best baits to use
You guys are awesome!! Been following the last few years!! Can y’all make a video on beginner to advance fish electronics? How to read read sonar, side imaging, and down imaging?
This is an awesome video always love to watch what you guys teach and learn from it and actually see the progress, but quick question what about a winter time A-Rig??
Can you talk to the megabass 110 +2? you mention the +1 but the +2 gets down more so I thought it would be more of a player for this time of year. And in a previous vid you mention to go to extremes with jerkbait, super shallow or super deep. My thought is the +2 is even deeper so possible better option.
Matt can you do a tidal river how to video? Recently started fishing the jourdan river and pearl river in south Mississippi was tough at first then started to get the hang of it then it got cold lol
Hey Matt, thanks for all the great work you do. I just wanted to let you know that after watching your video on dedicated square bill rods, I ordered some of the Dobbins 705 rods from Tackle Warehouse. just FYI so you can let your sponsors know.
Please with all the might I have ...come fish lake Granbury , it has everything rock, trees in water, backcreeks shallows and flats and it has been low of 32and high of 65 maaaybe. don't get skunkt often but have been last few days ..I need more content lol
Why not look into a Kayak, even if you're working part-time while going to school or your job doesn't pay that much...it's ok, most people have been there especially when first starting out. I just googled cheap Kayaks, found a 10 foot one brand new for 69.95...I had to start out standing in an old johnboat and fishing from the banks of ponds.
Thank you for this info! I listened to your video a few times but still struggle with finding the spots to fish on the lake. Any way I can send you chart pics of the lake and get some feedback from? I value your opinion
Thank you so much Matt for all the great information! This came in absolute perfect timing since I'm going on a trip to Dale Hollow this weekend. Just one quick question, Do bass still predominantly feed in the mornings and evenings, or do they wait until the sun comes up and warms the water up?
I'm in the north and the only times ove had success recently is right smack in the middle of the day. Not sure if it's the same for everyone else but that's definitely been my experience. As soon as 430 or 5pm rolls around, the bite just seems to shut off, like literally someone just flipped a switch. Hope that helps!
I know this is a couple years old, but same here in MA. When the water temp just starts to really heat up in the late fall, they seem to wake up and wanna eat. Totally different than what the summer bite is like.
Hey matt, did you get a new boat? Or just repower you champion. ? Though it doesnt look like your old boat.... are you going to do an introduction to the new boat
Mr. Allen which size suggestion on that Owner beast hook for the Little Creeper? Im thinking 10 but not sure if that'd be a tad too small ; this will be the biggest bait that i've bought and tried. Thanks
Hurricane Dorian caused our fall to start really fast then we proceeded to get cold fronts every week until midway through October, the water temp has been below 60 for about 2 1/2 weeks now, luckily we only have smallmouth in my province so they are still eating pretty well. EDIT: water temp was 54 last night
Thanks for the info. What do you all think about carolina rigs for the winter? And with swim baits, would you include glide baits? I guess they just don’t get deep enough for winter?
In ''How To Catch Bass With Plastic Worms - Amazing Underwater Footage!! '' video. Why you chose Rod- St. Croix Bass X 7'4" Med/Heavy for your Budget Friendly Longer Combo ?? Its action is Moderate Fast, is not ? How come it will become a good worms ROD?
You said you were on clearlake. I am in oroville temps are not much different. My question is if you are from that area of cali. If so. Do you participate in guided fishing or do any fishalongs for fans or people who would like more one on one lessons
Matt was a full time guide on Clearlake, Berryessa, and the Delta for many years but we've now relocated to Tennessee. We still come out and fish quite a bit but are not currently guiding.
Hi Matt. I live in central Florida and I fish from about but dont have a fish finder or depth finder. And suggestions for me. Until I get one. I have been struggling and its frustrating
Can you help me fish the winter in a river? I'm struggling to find the fish in my river, it starts at a spring fed lake then works it's way across the county. I thought they might have all moved to the lake, I've checked the steep dropoff, I haven't noticed any rock, ive checked structure but no luck. The deepest part of the river is probably over 10ft maybe 15 and the lake that is upstream is about 20 to 25 which is why I checked there
I really enjoy your videos. I'm a novice fisherman in northwest Iowa with deep clear walleye lakes. I'm trying your tips to improve my efforts to catch more walleye. Is there anything specific I should do differently if I'm targeting walleye vs bass. There are not many walleye youtube videos. Thanks
do you know where i got during the fall to winter transition? in my house......All the lakes get drawn down too much to put my boat in. And Lake erie is too sketchy with my boat size.
Hey guys, I’m just getting into the swimbait game and I’m looking for a low profile reel that’s $200 or less. Any advice y’all can give me? Appreciate any help!
If I strictly bank fish and can't access any of the 3 areas you mentioned to find them, should I even bother trying to fish in the winter before everything freezes over? I hate going out for 2+ hours in the cold just to get skunked
I like all the bait flipping behind Matt lol I found myself mesmerized by it lol
Me too!!! I wanted to see him cast into it to see what would hit.

if you were my teacher in high school, i probably would have graduated.
Yes! Lol
I couldnt put my finger on it but thats it they are a lot like that one teacher some people get. It just clicks. One history teacher is the only reason I graduated HS
if i was your teacher in high school, you would have probably gotten me pregnant
Matt's the best.
Matt and Tim have forgotten more about bass fishing than I'll ever learn. Haha! Thanks guys! I've loved watching you guys over all these years.
right!
Best knowledge channel for bass fishing. Love ya
Always informative vids. You're a great speaker and teacher Matt. Thanks for all you do to help us catch more fish.
I love how the whole time Matt's talking, there's just tons of fish eating off the top directly behind him

I like to "stitch" for retrieving slowly. It helps me to see how far the bait is moving by pulling it by hand.
I've got 2 weeks of fishing left that I need to make count here on the central coast of CA. Then, I need to winterize the motor and cover the boat 'cuz I'm getting lumbar surgery. I'll be on my ass for a month or 2 except for therapy. I planned it this way so I'm ready for the spring bite! Hope that pans out! 😩
Great video as always Matt! The only other thing I typically have in the winter is the slow super slow Ned rig. God bless!
Lol. Thanks but fishing here is pretty much over. Winter came early...
same here
Great video, great information!!!!
Great video. Looking forward to throwing my HUD. Being in the south, I still feel that we are in fall pattern. Anyone else agree? Water temps in the mid to low 60s
Love your videos , very informational , now have found the bass in my area , and able to target them effectively with the right baits .. Been fishing everyday for a week , haven't been blown out yet ..
You guys should move to Texas and get out of that state!!
this is yet another great video.
Where do bass go in the Potomac River (river systems) in the winter please make a video on this, lol. I love you guys videos, and I hope you can help a fellow angler out.
Awesome tips as always I want to thank both of you guys for helping me to become a much much better angler this year especially
This video is one of the best you have ever done!
Yes it is !
Awesome video brother I'm going to try to use some of those techniques this weekend coming up
Love waking up to your videos! One question what to do when i’m fishing the fall to winter transition in a small weed bottom lake that they primarily eat crawdads?
Of course I get home from being skunked on my Kayak and then I get to watch this......

Great video bud

Can you talk to the megabass 110 +2? you mention the +1 but the +2 gets down more so I thought it would be more of a player for this time of year.

Good information to know because here where I’m at the water temperature has dropped a lot and the bite has become very tough
Nice! Btw Matt i just saw Slayer in concert last night! You being from Cali, I figured you'd know them.
Hey Matt, a lot of us don't have access to a boat. We are in the North and only have bank fishing. Do you have any suggestions for us?
Actually, I have the same question-hope for some suggestions,thanks for great video!
What he said does apply for Ponds and lakes alike
get a boat
Why not look into a Kayak, even if you're working part-time while going to school or your job doesn't pay that much...it's ok, most people have been there especially when first starting out. I just googled cheap Kayaks, found a 10 foot one brand new for 69.95...I had to start out standing in an old johnboat and fishing from the banks of ponds.
Im watching your video in the school bathroom
Get to class bud
just to be CLEAR is this FALL for south TEXAS, or FALL FOR THE NORTH?
Matt u an Tim come do some kayak fishing coming year love when u guys step into my world
Class in session 📝
I'm in Lafayette Louisiana right now it's pretty cold man imma try with shinners so they can eat something that they haven't seen in awhile
Thank you for this info! I listened to your video a few times but still struggle with finding the spots to fish on the lake. Any way I can send you chart pics of the lake and get some feedback from? I value your opinion

*Cries in Minnesota winter*
You guys should try out the Raid Blaid bait I think you'd like it, I'll leave it at that....
Awesome video as always.
Has anyone had any experience throwing 3/4oz football jigs on a 7’5 MH Zodias?
Hurricane Dorian caused our fall to start really fast then we proceeded to get cold fronts every week until midway through October, the water temp has been below 60 for about 2 1/2 weeks now, luckily we only have smallmouth in my province so they are still eating pretty well.

🐟 Gonna get the yak, bye 💨!!!
yak is the way to do it.
what kind of line for your swimbaits? braid to floro? straight floro?
He is sitting on baitfish as he was talking. God I need to go fishing asap.
Now I'm stressen on where I'm going to find the fish in my almost all rock walled big deep clear water lake.
Thanks for the info.
What do you all think about carolina rigs for the winter? And with swim baits, would you include glide baits? I guess they just don’t get deep enough for winter?
I do more bank fishing. Do all these tactics still work and use of the same bait as you described in the video?
When you redid your boat did you put in new seats? If so where did you get them?
Hi Matt, I'd like to hear your thoughts on sents on the bigger soft body swim baits
In ''How To Catch Bass With Plastic Worms - Amazing Underwater Footage!! '' video. Why you chose Rod- St. Croix Bass X 7'4" Med/Heavy for your Budget Friendly Longer Combo ?? Its action is Moderate Fast, is not ? How come it will become a good worms ROD?

You guys gonna do any ice fishing this year?
Hi Matt. I live in central Florida and I fish from about but dont have a fish finder or depth finder. And suggestions for me. Until I get one. I have been struggling and its frustrating
HELL YA TOTALLY JACKED

Flouro leaders and jigs. I'm by cedar rapids and it usually works best
What is a good dedicated rod just for the 6” trash fish?
do you know where i got during the fall to winter transition? in my house......All the lakes get drawn down too much to put my boat in. And Lake erie is too sketchy with my boat size.
is that a new yamaha on the back??
Won’t the depth their at determine somewhat on how much sun that point gets? Will they congratulate to places that warm up in the fall/winter?
Ol bby blue eyes
Hey guys, I’m just getting into the swimbait game and I’m looking for a low profile reel that’s $200 or less. Any advice y’all can give me? Appreciate any help!

Did you repower?? Yamaha no Pro XS 4 stroke
I noticed that too.
Hey Matt does tidal waters apply to the same tactics that you were talking about?
Did you put a different motor on your boat?
When is that new boat tour coming out🔥🔥🔥
