I Thought It Was Weeds…Turned Out To Be a Big Bass!

Today I hit the water with some soft plastics and ended up catching a bunch of nice bass. The last one had me fooled — after getting snagged in my motor, I thought I was just dragging through weeds… until the line started pulling back! Turned out to be a solid 2.8lb bass and it was such a fun surprise catch!

I’ll show you the soft plastics I used, how I worked them, and of course the fish that made the whole trip worth it. Stick around to the end for the big one — it’s a good one!

🐟 Gear & Baits Used:
• Soft plastics (favorite style for bass fishing)
• St. Croix GXR Bass Medium Heavy spinning setup

Bass fishing with soft plastics is one of the best ways to catch big bass in lakes with weeds, lily pads, and heavy cover. In this video I show how I work my soft plastics through cover, what rod and reel setup I like, and how even a cast that feels like it’s stuck in weeds can end up being a surprise fish!

If you’re into largemouth bass fishing, kayak fishing, or just love seeing big bass blow your mind, this one’s for you.
