In this video: why bass hide in weeds, how weeds give bass cover, food and shade, why thick weeds can run low on oxygen, why big bass sit on the weed edge and in holes and pockets, which weedless lures to throw (soft plastic, hollow frog), and the three mistakes that keep you from getting bites in vegetation.

Who it is for: bass anglers who fish weed beds, lily pads and grass and get snagged or ignored. No experience needed.
