Reaction Baits come in finesse?? That's right!! When the bite gets tough, we fish finesse baits, but that doesn't mean slowing down! Come along as Matt fishes finesse swimbaits, jerkbaits, crankbaits, and topwater, for Summer bass that are chasing micro bait!
Turning to finesse presentations doesn't have to be boring. You can still "power fish" but with a much smaller offering. Pay close attention as Matt explains how these different bait profiles help him catch more fish, and under what conditions he throws them. From small flukes, to tiny topwater, there is a finesse presentation that will help you catch more fish as Summer comes to an end.
Below you'll find links to the exact baits Matt used and discussed in the video. We've included the rigging components as well as our favorite colors for each. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
