About this listen

Bass Fishing Tips: March bass fishing is obvious water and heavy pressure: everybody’s in the backs of pockets and spawning creeks, and the fish have seen the same baits all day. This episode breaks down my Top 5 March bass fishing baits (Texas/southern spawn timing) and—more importantly—the one key retrieve for each so you can turn “around fish” into reaction bites in crowded, pressured spring water.

We cover a squarebill crankbait bite that can produce your biggest fish early, a bladed jig worked like a jig and slow-rolled near bottom for territorial spawners, the swim jig finesse play for shallow grass, a swimming worm that lets you keep power-fishing while everyone else dead-sticks, and a Texas rig for picking apart the exact cover fish spawn on. Then we finish with the fallback when nothing else works: a slow, patient wacky/weightless approach that still gets bit in peak pressure.
