If you’re looking for the best bass fishing hacks and fishing tips that actually make a difference on the water, this is the video. These are 10 bass fishing hacks I use to solve the most annoying problems in fishing: soft plastics sliding down the hook, trailers getting torn up, skirts slipping, baits getting ruined after one fish, and little gear issues that waste casts all day.
I’ll show you simple, proven fixes like the O-ring trick that keeps a torn bait locked in place on keeper hooks, how to add a keeper to a smooth shank hook with a quick uni-knot, the quarter-turn trick that makes trailers hold longer on barbs, plus easy ways to save your favorite skirts, keep swimbaits from riding crooked, and even custom-color hard baits on the fly with markers. These are real-world bass fishing tips for jigs, bladed jigs, swim jigs, spinnerbaits, swimbaits, and more.
Bonus: I also share a few “off-the-water” hacks that help you fish longer and stay comfortable, including a back-pain shoe tip, a rain gear layering trick that keeps you drier, and a simple boat-cover strap trick that stops flapping and rubbing while trailering.
