When the fishing gets tough, sometimes you need to offer bass a smaller option. Every angler has experienced those days when you just can’t buy a bite. One potential solution is to break out smaller baits to entice those finicky fish. In this seminar, Matt Arey discusses some of his personal favorite micro-baits to turn to when it gets tough. Arey covers some of the more popular baits – such as small jerkbaits and scrounger heads – but also highlights various crappie and ice fishing techniques that also work well for chasing bass.
