Have you tried bass fishing with topwater, in the rain? Do bass even bite in the rain? Today I am out bass fishing with a topwater popper. I am fishing from the bank on a rainy day hoping to get a bite. The fishing is a little better than I expected, but still challenging due to the heat. I miss one bass near the dock. I nearly catch another bass in front of a tree near the bank. Then after making my way back to the car, I finally catch a nice largemouth bass on topwater. I catch it casting parallel to the bank. I think the same fish may have gone for the popper twice. If you end up bass fishing in the rain here is a tip: maybe try topwater. #topwater #bassfishing

I tend to have my most successful frogging days in overcast conditions with light rain. Just chuck a black frog out there and wait for the fireworks!
I enjoy watching the surgical precision in your casting. 🙂
Persistence paid off. Great video Alex!
Nice fish 🐟. Thanks for the videos, I enjoy them all.
When I’m fishing top water near banks and docks I always have a second rod with me with a soft plastic stick bait or speed worm. When a blow up on top water misses I follow up with the worm and almost always get the hook up.
yeah all I been getting is blowups and swirls lately…
Often wondered if the fish would bite in the rain. Thanks for doing this video.
more rain videos.
Popping in light rain, God knows for how long until finally got rewarded, thats what I call perseverance, great job my friend.
you taught me how to fish a texas rig from your video 6 years ago! also i have some questions, what is your favorite rod, favorite bait for bass, favorite bait for catfish, and favorite bait for trout_
👍🏻😎
Sweet bass. Sometimes I enjoy fishing in the rain during summer if for no other reason but to fish without having to broil in my own broth
The girl in the beginning of the video makes me wanna go jug fishing 😍
Nice catch in this rain my brother! Thanks for keeping it realistic!
If it's raining the first thing I throw is top water
Nice one Alex. The top water bite is tough sometimes. Glad to see you going for it I thought you would get more bites in the drizzle. KIR n
I think staying with it pays off. Good-looking fish.
Good bass, hopefully it'll get better when it cools down. 👍
Alex – ya can't tell me that being outside, even in the rain, and hearing the bloop bloop of a popper wasn't just as good in and of itself as dragging in a fish.
Grabbing a bass is the cherry on top… right?
Also, love the new hat!
fishing in the rain is always hit or miss, glad you got one Alex. KIR
