The spawn is in full swing in much of the country. Its always a hot button issue full of heated debate about the ethics of fishing during the spawn. Our position is that in most of the country its legal, and if guys are going to do it, we’d like to see them doing it right. So today, in the midst of catching fish, Matt sits down and covers what you need to know about fish care, how to catch these big bass, and the baits he relies on to catch them quickly.
Below you’ll find links to the baits Matt caught fish on today, as well as the gear he used. We’ve also included links to the baits he recommends for the spawn and the glasses he and Tim designed for this purpose. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
