After 6 grueling trips across the country, Matt and Tim are finally back on the lake together! They’re exploring Chickamauga in the middle of a Summer rain storm. Come along as they find new water, adapt to changing conditions, and catch bass on topwater and reaction baits. A lot of anglers are intimidated by rain. Some don’t want their equipment soaked, others aren’t sure what to throw when its raining. Today the guys explain why they’re throwing different baits and how the conditions are impacting their choices. Its a unique look into both angler’s mindsets as they are adapting to changing conditions on new water. While both anglers stuck to reaction baits throughout the day, they both downsized their offerings to get consistent bites. Matt leaned toward topwater while Tim leaned toward swimbaits and tail spins. Below is a breakdown of the baits and equipment the guys were using to catch their fish.
