Things are changing! Sure, the old staple baits work, but there are new baits in town and they're making waves! From subtle differences between walking baits and frogs, to this new category of straight retrieved, erratic baits... there is a lot to learn about topwater fishing for bass in 2024! Come along as Tim takes a quick dive into his favorite baits, new confidence baits, and how he's adapting to keep catching fish.
We all have a favorite topwater lure or two. Its great to have those confidence baits, but if you're not adapting, you're missing out! Fish are becoming wary of our presentations, and new innovations are emerging. Straight retrieve baits with erratic actions are coming over from Saltwater and you better be ready!
Below you'll find links to all the baits discussed in the video. We've included favorite colors, hook upgrades, as well as the rods and reels we use to fish them effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
