    Only 3 Chatterbait Colors I Start With: How to dial bass in fast

    Bass Fishing Tips: Chatterbait color gets overcomplicated fast. In this episode, I break it down to the 3 color buckets I always start with so you can figure bass out faster, stop wasting time, and know when it’s worth dialing color in further. We cover the best chatterbait colors for shad and minnow situations, natural green pumpkin and black/blue options, and high-contrast red and orange when you need fish to find the bait. I also explain my best all-around starting color, how I match trailers to each color bucket, and when blade color actually matters. If you’ve ever wondered whether fish just won’t eat a chatterbait that day or whether you’ve got the wrong color tied on, this is the framework I use to simplify it.

    Mark Davis: Caught a few? You should’ve caught more. How to make more fish bite

    Bass fishing tips: If you’ve ever found bass, caught a few, and still knew you left fish behind, this episode is for you. Bass Fishing Hall of Famer Mark Davis breaks down the missed edge in modern bass fishing: not always finding more fish, but slowing down enough to make the fish you found actually bite. What you’ll learn: • Why you should fish slow only after you know fish are there • The biggest mistake anglers make when the bite gets tough • How slow Mark really means on a Carolina rig and Texas rig • Why “drag it and sit on it” gets more fish to commit • When a Texas rig shines vs. when a Carolina rig is the better tool • How bottom composition, wind, and water clarity change Carolina rig setup • Why profile and angle can matter more than color • Why pressured fish often need dead-sticking and more soak time Guest: Mark Davis — Bass Fishing Hall of Famer; 1995 Bassmaster Classic champion; three-time Angler of the Year; one of the best worm fishermen of all time.

    Spring Bass Have Seen Your Bait 100x—Do THIS Instead

    Bass Fishing Tips: Spring bass are shallow… and so is everybody else. When the obvious water gets pounded, the bite goes from “easy” to “why won’t they eat?” fast. In this episode, I break down a simple two-lane plan: find overlooked water with easier fish, or stay in the popular areas and make the key adjustments that still get bites. What you’ll learn: • How to use boat ramp locations on a lake map to find low-pressure sections fast • The “turnaround point” trick on big shallow flats where most boats quit • Using Google Earth history to spot ditches, low spots, and hidden sweet spots on flats • Where to look for pre-spawn and post-spawn bass when everyone is fishing shallow • Main-lake pockets and shallow main-lake flats that get ignored during the spawn rush • What rising water really does to bass and how to fish the old bank line vs new flooded cover • How to use electronics to find hidden cover, not just fish • The pressured-fish adjustments: fish deeper than the crowd, different looks, fish the fringe, and dead-sticking Watch the episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/Qx5dQPR4iXM  Follow Catch More Bass — new episodes every Monday at 2 PM CT.

    Listen before you buy boat batteries: Keys to better electronics and motor performance

    Boat batteries used to be simple. Not anymore. With LiveScope, multiple graphs, trolling motors, pumps, Power-Poles, and modern outboards, getting the right battery setup matters more than ever. In this episode, Lester Miller of MillerTech breaks down how to choose the right batteries for a modern bass boat, what actually matters in lithium performance, and where anglers still get tripped up. We cover how much amp-hour capacity most anglers really need, why 36V battery setups have changed, whether a dedicated electronics battery is worth it for LiveScope and graphs, and why lithium can hold image clarity better than old lead-acid setups late in the day. Lester also explains what separates premium lithium batteries from cheap online options, how BMS quality and low-temperature charging protection matter, what causes problems with lithium cranking batteries on big outboards, and why cold-weather charging and battery safety still deserve attention. If you’re trying to get your batteries right once and not think about them again, this one should save you money, confusion, and a lot of avoidable problems.

    5 Best Baits for April Bass Fishing — What Actually Works

    Bass Fishing Tips: April bass fishing is predictable shallow water and heavy pressure: everyone’s around fish, but most anglers are throwing the same handful of baits. In this episode, we break down the 5 best baits for April bass fishing and the key retrieves that make them work when the spawn and post-spawn overlap and the easy stuff starts getting ignored. You’ll learn when to press for bigger bites with a swimbait, how to fish a finesse Carolina rig in that 4–8 foot zone, the shaky head details that get pressured fish to commit, and how to cover water with topwater and a swim jig around shad spawn, bluegill activity, and fry guarders. We finish with the bonus reaction options—floating jerkbait and soft plastic jerkbait—when the bite just dies and you need a trigger, not a soak.   Watch the episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/JijdTzMmM7I  Follow Catch More Bass — new episodes every Monday at 2 PM CT.

    Zack Birge: Why you’re not getting bit this spring (find bass fast)

    It’s spring, bass are where you expect them to be, and somehow you’re still not getting bit. In this episode, Zack Birge breaks down the real problem: not every pocket has the right group of fish, and even when it does, they won’t bite the same way every day. Fresh off his win on Whitney and Waco, Zack explains how he approaches new water, what helps him find productive areas faster, and how he changes with the fish instead of forcing yesterday’s pattern. This is a sharp, practical shallow-water clinic on finding fish faster, choosing the right search baits, and knowing when it’s time to slow down. What you’ll learn: • How Zack finds the best groups of spring bass instead of wasting time in empty-looking water • Why bait in the backs of creeks and pockets can be the fastest clue to active fish • Why chatterbait is his number one spring search bait and when spinnerbait, swim jig, and a lipless bait fit • The small bait changes that mattered, including profile and color adjustments when conditions shifted • When to slow down with a Senko or flipping bait after a moving bait stops producing • How he identified reloading areas where he could make multiple passes and keep catching fish • Why staying quiet in shallow water mattered more than using LiveScope in his winning area • The mindset rule that kept him getting bit: stop forcing what worked earlier and change with the fish Guest: Zack Birge — Bass Pro Tour winner, current AOY leader, and one of the most versatile shallow and offshore anglers in the game.

    If I Could Only Pick ONE Spring Bass Lure…Stop soaking Senkos and do this instead.

    Bass Fishing Tips: If you could only take one bait for the entire spring, what would it be—and why? In this episode I make the case for a swimming worm (speed worm) as the best “middle lane” spring tool: fast enough to cover water like a moving bait, but weedless and precise enough to fish thick cover like a Texas rig. We break down when spring fish push anglers into two extremes (burn moving baits vs deadstick a Senko), why pressured bass respond to a different look, and how to fish a speed worm two ways: steady swimming to find fish, and slower Texas-rig style when they won’t chase. You’ll also get the exact setup—Berkley Speed Boss, pegged weight, 4/0 superline EWG—plus key retrieve rules (rod tip up vs down, steady vs stop-and-go), where it shines in the spring shallows, and the common mistakes that kill bites and hookups.

    Fisher Anaya: Why Bass Follow Your Jighead Minnow (But Won't Eat)

    Bass Fishing Tips: Bass are following your jighead minnow all the way in… then peeling off. That’s not “tough fishing”—it’s usually one small mistake in angle, action, or how the bait is tracking. In this deep-dive podcast, Bassmaster Elite winner Fisher Anaya breaks down how he actually gets commitment with a jighead minnow on LiveScope, even as fish get more trained to the technique. What you’ll learn: • Where a jighead minnow fits in his top LiveScope bait lineup (and when he goes jerkbait or Neko) • The best minnow conditions and why slick, bluebird days can be prime • Jighead and hook choices that improve hookup ratio (gap, hook flash, and why he avoids loop knots) • Head weight strategy (going lighter than most) and when heavier heads still win • Minnow picks and sizing: Freeloader vs Sakamata vs “mooch” style baits, plus match-the-hatch logic • How to rig for the right roll (top rig to hide the head) and when to switch to up/down action • Cadence basics: simple roll vs hunt vs straight reel, and how fast to adjust • Casting angle, stealth, and boat shadow—how distance changes your odds • What to do with a follower that comes to the boat (leave, loop back, and timing) Guest: Fisher Anaya — Bassmaster Elite winner; fast-rising pro; forward-facing sonar specialist.
