Fishing in the wind doesn’t have to be tough! Jump in Matt’s Skeeter, and learn the tricks to using wind to your advantage! Watch as he breaks down a brand new lake in the middle of a wind storm. Not only does he use the wind, he puts together a great limit of fish!
Exploring a new lake is rarely an easy task. Throw wind into the mix, and it can be downright tough! Matt had to pull all the stops today, but in the end he catches a BIG ONE! The fishery he’s on today has a lot of shallow vegetation so Matt used a combination of swim jig, underspin, and frogs to get key bites throughout the day.
Below you’ll find links to the exact baits and gear Matt used throughout the day. He’s also included the exact colors for each bait. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
