  • Join me on an exciting bass fishing adventure to Lake Toho, where we explore the hush hush fishing technique known as 'worming' a chatterbait, alongside fishing a soft pastic worm, Bass Mafia Zaldaingerous Swimbait, and a Megabass 110 Jerkbait. We showcase 'worming' a chatterbait - a very secretive technique the pros use when fishing around cover and grass. I hope you enjoy these top tier strategies for catching more and bigger bass!

    I didn’t know any better when I got chatterbaits and fished it like a JIG & Pig and they pick it up just like anything else that’s a Jig. But also, when you reel it in, they bite it also due to the vibration and the cat and mouse chase thing called instinctual striking.

    I had a blast at Toho last month. Caught 8 large mouth. The smallest was like 3.5lb. Also caught a 4ft Gar. I think we lost 3 or 4. There isn't really a setup they haven't seen LOL. And if you fish along the tall grass or reeds, they'll break you off slick as a whistle. Those fish are smart in that lake. We were only out for a couple of hours. The weather pretty much sucked the whole time we were down there.
