Check out these INCREDIBLE underwater bass Strikes! Watch how these bass interact with lures and what triggers them to bite. Then pay close attention to the details as Matt explains how you can catch giant fish in early Spring by going completely against traditional bass fishing knowledge and triggering a feed response in big bass.

Early Spring topwater? Is that really an option? Could it work in your lake? You better believe it!! Very few anglers throw topwater during the Spring transition but those that do often catch giant bass. Its an overlooked technique that you should consider throwing on warm afternoons. We’re not suggesting it be your main approach, but when you’re looking for a giant bite, it can’t be ruled out.

Below you’ll find links to some of our favorite walking, popping, and straight retrieve topwater lures for Early Spring. We’ve also included some of the gear we use to fish these baits effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
