Underwater Video! Do Bass Eat Bluegill Swimbaits?



We cast a bluegill swimbait to an aggressive largemouth and watch him tear it apart! He wasn’t afraid to eat the swimbait over and over.

This underwater video is different from what we’ve done in the past. This is one of a series of underwater bass fishing videos we’ll be rolling out in the coming weeks that don’t have voice over or other audio. The purpose of these videos is simply to watch bass in their natural habitats and watch how they respond to swimbaits, jigs, worms, etc.

  1. Looked like he was playing eith it but this video taught me that you can cast it a ton of times Infront of the same fish and they will keep trying and trying which is good instead of thinking you have to sweep the area constantly. Thanks

  2. This also is a great representation of how bass protect their beds, what I’ve learned from this is that the male is always searching and looking for things that could harm his eggs, so now I know to always make a couple casts into a bed before moving on!

  3. This doesn't really prove anything, most bass will nip other fish around a nest. They aren't trying to eat it they are trying to protect the eggs…

  4. I have a lot to learn. I was thinking that this was the worst lure of all time. Then I read the comments and realize he really wasn't trying to eat it. Just get it out his territory. Is that, right?

  5. Love your vids! But, I must say sight fishing and bed fishing is WRONG! Would you really want somebody breaking into your home and antagonizing you and your wife while expecting a newborn???

  6. Haha these haters make me chuckle. As you at Tactical Bassin know, bed fishing is SO MUCH MORE than just dragging a bait through or a leaving it in a bed. There is important body language and so much more details to pay attention to. I love your videos. Finally I found a channel that is as geeky and detailed as I am in regards to bass fishing. Tightlines.

  7. In my humble opinion the fish were just slightly annoyed. Perhaps if you had a way to slow the swimbait up quite a bit maybe rig it more nose down and just tease the line they probably would have hit it harder. A smaller jig would have produced more of a reaction. Definitely more of a fan of voice over commentary.

  8. If you'd have used it as a swimbait like its intended you'd have busted their asses. That jigging action on the bream swimbait doesn't work very good unless its high up in the water and on the move.

  9. As you can tell the fish isn't in the mood to eat the fish is bedded on a nest of eggs and is wanting to protect its eggs from getting eaten this is the only reason the bass is trying to bite the fish
