Swimbait Underground Chuck and Wind June 2018

TACTICS: With summer upon us we have switched it up to more floating and subsurface baits. Rising water temps, vegetation growth and hot days have the big bass sitting in the shade and weed pockets. They are using shore and the surface as their ambush points. Try waking the Wade Hoggs, Nezumma Rat, DRT Joker, or any other topwater/wake bait up shallow in order to entice the big ones. Many anglers find better success when fishing at night during the summer months.

SPOTLIGHT: Meet Swimbait Underground member "Zsneezes". Zack started swimbait fishing when he saw one of Mike Gilbert's videos come through his Instagram explore page. Shortly after that he joined the community and started fishing swimbaits with other members. He was fishing with a fellow member "northeast_trev" at a local spot. Zack pitched his Jackall Gantarel by some bridge pilings and immediately got bit. After a quick fight, he landed an East Coast giant, his first swimbait fish AND PB. 7.91lbs
