As bass finish spawning they move out to deeper water. This begins one of the most predictable times of the year, and fish catching becomes easy! If this transition has confused you, we're here to help! We're going to show you how these fish move and how to get ahead of them so you can consistently catch fish.

Once bass back away from the shore they typically rest for a few days before beginning their transition. The pattern they follow differs slightly depending on the type of lake you're on, but the concepts apply equally to all of these locations. Once the bass have recuperated they typically split into two distinct groups. Some turn around and reenter the shallows, while others run the prespawn stops in reserve on their way to outside, offshore structures.

Depending on the type of fishery you're on, the baits can differ dramatically. We primarily focus our time on faster moving, reaction baits, but we mix in a few bottom contact presentations as well. Below you'll find links to all the baits Matt discussed in the video. The links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
