Catching BIG BASS On Clearlake! + Frog Fishing Tips For Beginners!

Matt returns to Clearlake! Its been a year but you wouldn’t know it because the BIG Bass start biting right away!! He’s fishing with his dad and brother, targeting fish with a frog, chatterbait, and assorted topwater lures. You’re not going to want to miss this slugfest!

In the midst of hammering quality fish Matt stops and shares a few frog fishing tricks to help you become a successful frog fisherman overnight. If you’ve struggled to hook your fish, keep them pinned, or just plain haven’t got the “feel” of frog fishing, he’s talking to you. You can quit struggling right now if you pay attention to how he adapts the frogs and the equipment to the specific needs of each angler.

Below you’ll find links to all the baits the guys were using in today’s video. We’ll also include links to some of Matt’s travel rods, the frog rods he recommended, as well as specific sizes and colors you’ll need to help choose the right from for your next fishing trip.
