The BEST Early Spring Bass Fishing Technique!

This is the best early spring bass fishing technique! Early spring bass fishing can be tough since the water temperatures are really cold. The finesse swimbait is an excellent technique to catch these bass as it is subtle but can cover water and find active fish. The finesse swimbait has quickly become my favorite technique for early spring bass fishing as it catches so many bass! The best bait to put on the finesse swimbait rig is the Keitech swimbait as the tail is super soft and kicks at slow speeds! Hopefully you enjoyed this bass fishing tips episode and let me know what you would like to see next!

*Bought a 500 for an ultralight rod. It's very smooth **enjoyable.fishing** recommend casts great. One odd thing- the bale wire is a bit heavy diameter in my opinion for a reel of this size. But a great purchase.*

Hey thanks for your wisdom, I just found your youtube channel yesterday and watched about 10 videos. I have been Bass fishing for a year, so I am on a huge learning curve. I think it helps because you live in the North East I live in North Idaho. Most fishing videos I watch are in warmer states we don't have shad or other baitfish up here.. Again thank you for being willing to share your wisdom with the rest of us. You break it down so even a 73-year-old can understand and get excited about going out and trying your techniques.

Here in NE Ohio, I use a 1/16 oz jig and 3" Keitech EZ Shiner in the creeks and rivers. In local lakes I will be trying the Swim Impact. I put on some 6# braid fast action light rod. I can't wait.

I do this same technique as well, spot on information for people getting into this! I also use Keitech as well but over the last couple of years I've been using Cabelas Go-To Swim Minnow! Cheap, take a beating and have great colors to choose from. 1/4oz and 3.5inch minnow= Smallie heaven! As you said fish em slow!

Straight forward and helpful. Many thanks!

Great juice Nathan! thanks for sharing.

Here in Missouri in winter water temperature upper 30s to low 40s use both straight jig head and underspin I cast out let it sink to bottom and reel it slow keeping contact with bottom it's like reeling in slow motion but works

[stevencaldwell]

My best day of bass fishing was two years ago in Tennessee fishing a 3.8 keitech in white pearl on a 1/2 Oz head… I stopped counting after 30 fish. Smallmouth, spots, largemouth, and a 12lb catfish and a 4lb walley! Keitechs are the sh*t!

Sweet! Spring is just a few months away (here in New Hampshire we have about 9 months of winter....) and I can't wait to try this technique! YOU are giving me many ideas for fishing this coming year. I'm very excited!

Thanks for those tips Nathan!!! 👊🏻 I'll have it tied on when I go to Moraine at the beginning of April and give it a try!!!! Stay Safe & God Bless!!!!

Good stuff! I’m down in North TX. For probably 35 years we’ve used 4 inch ring worms on an 1/8 oz head and it has always produced for us. Thanks for the video!!!🎣🐟🐟🐟

Next visit to my local lake (maybe here in a hour or so)
Definitely going to try this technique (Dayton Ohio)

I caught my PB (3 of them) over 2days at a local pond where I had not gotten ANY hits or bites since November 2021. Dragged the swim bait like this (Kitech) slowly through the weeds for a monster!

[robertspeakman]

Great video I fish lake Erie alot and also have good with that set up . Only I use a 7' 2 " spinning rod for distance.

[privatedata]

Where you at Dude ? I'm in NE Pa and watching & waiting the ice . Biggest bass for me come during the first week after iceout . You may not catch many but they will be super quality fish .

[NonstopPanicOutdoors]

Have you tried dragging the swimbait for some smallmouth. Works good to generate some big bites.

When it comes to the spring in the NE I always have a Megabass jerkbait tied on, an A-rig, keitech finesse jig, crankbait, and a chatter bait

[mikeantes]

Caught a lot of fish with the Same set up and technique thanks for sharing and tight lines down in FLA.be safe
