Catching Bass in Rivers | New Fishing Tips and Techniques



Suspended bass are hard to catch. We are bass fishing in a new river and we found that the shad are suspended in the water. I wanted to catch fish on a jig, but the largemouth were not positioned on the bottom. We ended up catching all of our fish on spinnerbaits and crankbaits around docks and shallow cover just a few feet under the surface. I’ll be showing you how to fish a spinnerbait around the docks where the bass. You want tot use a medium action bass fishing rod that will be able accurately cast the lures under the objects where the bass are. I was using 15lb big game line and a high speed gear ratio reel.

  1. Its cool when your on your boat and you can use technology to catch a fish. No, no its not. That's the kind of thing that makes fishing lame to me. That's a step toward calling it catching not fishing. But, you've always been the man. Love the tip vids.

  2. Hey fellow fishing freak I just thought about fishing a river in Arkansas from the bank. I am boatless and would likes any tips that could give me a edge. Thanks hope your head gets better.

  3. Love the channel man. I found you recently and I've watched a majority of your videos. Keep up the good work. And I think your wife is the best catch of all. Great family you have. You're a lucky man.

  4. Looking at getting a fishing combo. Bait caster. I'm trying to get more accurate with my casts and I typically fish from the bank. What would you recommend as a combo to buy? I looked online and they had too many rods for someone like me to pick. Bait casters are still relatively new to me. I have some bass pro combos now. It seems I have to draw back and hurl them to get any distance. I hear good things about Lews
