Spawning Largemouth & Smallmouth Bass Fishing Tips
Channel: Andrew Buss
Date: 2022-05-17

Fishing for spawning largemouth and smallmouth bass can be a ton of fun, but also frustrating. This video was taken during a fishing tournament while the fish were spawning, but the water was dirty and the fish were hard to find.

I still manage to catch both largemouth and smallmouth bass in shallow water, but with the help of my Garmin Livescope to finish 3rd place. The winner, Mike Raber, used his Garmin Livescope exclusively to catch spawning fish in deeper water. 

We both share our techniques and lures used for our success.
