Up Close Underwater Footage of Bass eating Jigs! Ever wonder what the “tick” is? Check this out! If the footage isn’t enough just wait to the end when the GIANT bites and we catch her!
So many anglers take a “swing first, ask questions later” approach to bed fishing. While this works once in a while it does a lot more harm than good. It can turn the fish “negative” very quickly, destroying your chances of a legitimate catch. Not to mention you may snag the bass in the process.
Watch closely and you’ll notice how many times this bass bites without getting the hook. Its important to pay attention and not swing on the wrong pick up. Wait until the bass has fully engulfed the bait. You’ll notice in the above water clip that Matt loads the road before swinging on the smaller fish, this is to confirm that is has the hook and not just the tails.
Keep in mind, if they spit out the bait, as long as you haven’t “stung” the bass it will bite again. There is no hurry to swing on the first bite. Its a much safer bet to wait for the right bite, set once, and get solid hook placement than it is to swing for the fences early and lose the bass altogether.

“The Small, The Bad, & The Super Bad”. I thought Clint Eastwood was going to squint @ cameras/a thin cigar!
How do you know when you get a bite on a jig?
You guys produce some great videos and tons of them. I have gained a ton of knowledge from them. Thanks for that, however this is one of my favorites because the music is freakin awesome ! Lol great entertainment I must say
Where about is this lake located.
Wat are the best colors on a jig to use on bass my friend ? Love to catch some good bass like that !!!!!!
So cinematically dramatic!
Sweet largemouth man. What a rush. Any guess to the weight? Looks like 8 lbs +.
boring
Probably my favorite underwater footage from y’all!!! Outstanding!
So are you espies to hop it while fishing it or jerk it? Pls respond soon
Cool
Is that Apache Lake?
Do any of you trim your jigs?
Nice video great content and very instructive thanks again from us anglers for taking the time to educate!! 💪
That fish is definitely a paid actor the bass I fish for definitely don’t got after my baits like that🥺😂
Umm…… where’s Clint Eastwood
Very diligent bass, guarding that bed like a true parent
I feel like poping the jig and realing in too quickly and fast isn't too effective
Great shoot & edit Tim! Nice fishin Matt!
These guys get the most amazing footage
Beautiful footage! What bass are those?
Imagine if we put a tri hook on that jig hook… We could have catch that bass every time
was it only me that cringed every time the bass dropped the jig
Shit job of setting the hook.
Gotta love our AZ bass. We have the Florida strain all over our lakes.
What brand camera do you use?
Cool video y’all explain bass fishing to the T
Good shit fellas!….this is some sick ass footage…..keep it up….love the channel
Bass is like "how many times am I gonna get rid of this shit "😂
When fishing with a football jig, do you have to add a trailer?
Wow…didn’t look that big under water!!!
Must b the bass guarding their eggs for them to keep biting like that…if only having them bite is that easy…
could you do some videos of underwater camera reviews,,,,aqua view ,, marcum etc?
Spawn trapping 2.0
What is the best use for a vertical vs horizontal line tie jig?
underwater stuff are awsome. Cool.
Did you guys fish Havasu??? I have lots of memories fishing Havasu as a youth with my family every summer on vacation. It's beautiful, the Colorado River is amazing as well. So much fun!!!! Thanks guys!!!
I just caught my PB by using this technique. 7 lbs
Sooo Dramatic… Love it
Where's Clint? Obviously this is The Good The Bass and The Ugly
Great stuff guys. I live in Texas now (awesome lakes) but I fished Saguaro growing up. Beautiful scenery and great fishing.
Awesome fish. What was yhe weight?
You suck at setting hooks
That Intro though!!
Sweet underwater bass footage, awesome spaghetti western song choice and great catch!
These underwater vids are straight fire! Just can't get enough of them.
Spaghetti Western background music very appropo for the big fish catch!!!
In the underwater footage it seemed like the swim jig caused the fish to bite but didn’t lead to a catch. In the second half you appear to be catching quite a few with the swim jig. Did you do something different?
