A Swimbait is one of my favorite baits to use when the water starts cooling down! By Bottom Bouncing a swimbait using the tips laid out in this video, you will increase the number of bass you catch during the winter. These key tips will help you cover water, get more bites, and trigger fish that won’t bite other baits.

Bass fishing for smallmouth is tough. This is how to catch more bigger bass, largemouth bass and smallmouth bass. Fishing challenges are fun using Barbie poles and rods and reels, and Pokémon lures, but we target big fish and show you how to catch big bass. How to catch smallmouth bass is the focus and I fish during all conditions. Fishing summer fishing winter fishing fall fishing spring fishing ice ice fishing fishing cold cold water warm water I fish it all. The Googan Squad and Kickin Their Bass TV and Milliken Fishing and 6th Sense and BassFishingHq and Randy Blaukut and Fish the Moment all like to fish for bass, but I teach bass fishing too.
Good stuff, just subscribed
Ben Loved this video. All of the juice to make it work. It definitely gets a second watch.
Thanks for sharing
Hey Ben, ever try the 3" Z-Man Slim SwimZ??? It is slender like the Easy Shiner, but Elaztech. I bought some two years ago, but I missed out on a bunch of prespawn fishing this year. I'm excited to pull them out in the spring at ice-out.
Will 10lb mono work? I have been fishing 6lb lo-vis lately but my main rod still have a lot of 10lb remaining
Thanks for the great tips Ben.
Great video Ben! I picked up some Megabass Hazedong Shads in the 3 and 4.2 inch sizes and the Megabass Okashira heads and Screw heads on Black Friday and some other local soft plastics with a forked tail for trying Damiki style rigging. Will try to find the football head jigs in hear in Ontario over the holiday and New Year's sales if any are still in stocks to be ready to try your set up in spring and fall next season. One idea I am going to try again is using a heavy CFL Z Man Chatterbait and perhaps remove the skirt and go with a Hazedong Shad and just slow roll it. What do you think of that and/or have you tried it out yet? Thanks again and an early Merry Christmas and all the best for 2023!!
Swimbait looks straight this time haha
Good stuff Ben. Going to be a long winter. Already can't wait for spring open water fishing season!!
Great tips! I’ll modify slightly, and use them here in Texas! 👊
Thanks Ben- those were some super great tips on rigging and how to use this type of tackle in various conditions.
Happy Holidays!🙂👍🏻
Great video thanks.
Will have to give it a try once the ice melts
Awesome video thx Ben 😊
Great video Brother. Super cool insights. Makes me think of how to fish my home lake here in Kentucky
