Fall Topwater For Bass | Everything You Need To Know + Underwater Footage!

- Its topwater time!! Who's ready?! Popper, buzzbait, whopper plopper, walking baits, wakebaits... Fall is awesome! If you're as pumped up as we are its time to get serious about topwater fishing! Fall bass fishing is just around the corner, the baitfish will be schooling in the shallows, and its time to get your equipment dialed in. From insane underwater footage, to favorite baits, to rigging tricks, we're about to talk all things TOPWATER...
As Fall approaches the topwater bite will get better and better. Best of all, BIG bass are heading into the shallows again. If you're tired of the Summer doldrums and want to catch bigger bass this Fall, topwater is going to help you do it. Understanding when to throw topwater, how to select the right gear, and knowing which lures offer you the best chance at success, is what this video is all about.
Matt and Tim use a variety of lures to accomplish their goals. One day you might see them throwing a giant wakebait, the next morning it could be a little popper. How do they make those decisions and how can you do the same? It all comes down to understanding what the bass are eating. Matching the SIZE of the baitfish is critical to success throughout the coming months. In this video covers a ton of different lures in a variety of sizes to help you prepare for every situation. We don't expect you to remember it all so below is a breakdown of the exact lures and gear Matt discussed (in order of appearance).

So weird to me how u guys aren't at 1 million subs or atleast 500k. Best informative fishing channel ive come across.
Facts
It’s because adults watch them unlike the kids who follow the Googan squad
have a tourney this weekend and I always feel like I am getting THE BEST pep talk known to man from the number one coach!
I don’t miss anything. My morning routine is to check for your videos. Always
😂 that’s funny, I’m late for work everyday so it’s my nightly routine..
Just want to say man you give the best fishing advice on youtube hands down. Very detailed, when I watch one of your videos I dont have to find other videos for answers you cover it all man.
Most knowledgeable fisherman on TH-cam right here
Yesterday, as I fished and watched bass blow up on schooling shiners all day, I wondered when TB would upload an updated fall topwater video. Your seeming clairvoyance and impeccable timing never cease to amaze me. Incredible!
You guys are awesome! Your channel is unique and no one else is making as in depth of videos as you. Thank you for helping me become a better angler.
Really nice work on this. I don't think anybody else explains the why, where, and how on bass fishing techniques, season to season, as well as Matt. Thank you for this!
As usual another great video from the best bass fishermen on the internet. Matt and Tim are amazing. Thanks for the tips Tim. God Bless you and yours.
Yes Jvang93 I agree, I think this is one of the most professional informative fishing channel out there..
thanks allot guys!!
Man, you cover topics much more thoroughly than anyone else. I spent time this winter binge watching all of your videos to date, and it increased my fishing IQ soooo much (and my catch rate) Thanks again guys!
Matt and Tim are awesome and very educational when it comes to fishing. I live in Canada, where it's a little different, but I've added most of the information into my fishing arsenal and it works. Roland Martin is my idol when it comes to bass fishing, he's a legend, but I watch you guys to know what to throw and when and even different techniques. Thanks for all the information, I've definitely become a better angler and more knowledgeable thanks to you and others on TH-cam. 🤘
Very long but kept my interest the whole way. You are the master of bass educators and we are so lucky to have you and Tim 3 times a week. Saw the photo of you and Cece and she still is a beautiful woman, you are a very fortunate man and I am envious. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.
Perfect timing on this one, Matt, cause I just ordered 7 new topwaters!!!
Y'all rock these videos are extremely helpful. Without anyone to ask or bounce ideas off of, you guys definitely make a successful fishing trip happen. 👌🤘👊
I learn something new every time I watch a TB video. More great info Matt! Looks like it's time for topwater again!!
Perfect timing !!!! My lake has stripers blowing up on shad right now and this really helps. Love the chug bait, need the bigger one and it does call the fish over!!! Time to get out and put these baits to work! Thanks for the info, as always, best bass channel/information out there!!!!!
Excellent job matt,I can't wait to dive head frist into fall top water, thank you, to you and Tim, for tactical bassin, it's a great tool to improve your fishing, God bless you guys
I have an hour every morning when I'm in the office before anyone else. I start my day checking for new TacticalBassin vids. Hands down the best channel on youtube.
Fish the moment with Johnny Shultz is also top of the line channel.
Same and agree. This channel is very high quality.
Great info Matt. I recently discovered the deep crank rod is awesome for my ploppers . I'm repurposeing one of my 6'10" jerk bait rods this week for poppers. 61 years old and still learning tricks from you and Tim. All the best to both of you and your families!
Yes it is perfect timing. I'm up in Jersey fall just starting and was about to get some lures for the fall this afternoon when you just posted so thank you
Just started really getting into fishing this year and I have learned a lot from your videos! I appreciate all the time you take out to explain everything and the tips you give!
Damn Matt! Your channel is by far the most informative channel not just on TH-cam but online in general. Thank you and thank Tim for all of the knowledge you give.
I just got back into bass fishing in the early summer and this channel has been a huge help! Thank you so much!
dang that is a lot of info!! I have been watching it over the last three days, taking notes. definitely going to have to come back and watch a couple times!!
I love watching matt and tim .good info I'm in fl and these guys have helped step my game up
Love your videos guys, great info! I have learned way more watching you guys than anyone else. Keep them coming!
1:15 freakin awesome!! Another great vid by you guys!
I can't wait to try these great tips tomorrow here in South Carolina! You guys ROCK! I COULDN'T AGREE MORE with all the positive comments on this post
Forever grateful
your videos are so good, man. I wish I had your knowledge of what / how to fish. I thought I knew so much until I showed up here. I appreciate the lessons on topwater, coach!
I was so hyped when I saw this video because yesterday I was looking for Fall/ Early Fall topwater tips
Unreal info Matt, keep it up. Best way to understand bass techniques and tricks.
I have to admit I’ve been living under a rock until I started watching your vids last fall I’m now using baits I never considered using with good success but the best part is technique how do you learn that stuff with out someone showing you I’ve been fishing for 55 years and since watching your vids I’ve learned more in the last year than in the last ten keep up the amazing work you do👍🏻
I really appreciate you taking the time to teach . Very informative.
Another great video Matt,very well done, and greatly informative!
Your knowledge is always appreciated brother!
Thanks for showing love to your fellow canadiens 🤜🤛
Great information Matt, makes sense. I am in Colorado, ready for fall fishing for sure. Spring was great, summer sucked, top water in fall will be awesome. Thank you
this man deserves recognition in the bass fishing world by far gives so much information on every single kjndd of fishing
In depth! Clear thorough information on getting the bass bite on! Also, you gave good info for those of us who like panfish fry's with blue gill, thank you =)
INCREDIBLE in depth video Matt,I'm looking forward to the fall,thank you 👊👊👍🍻🍺
Agreed, by far the best fishing videos on any medium!
Matt. Dude this was frigging OUTSTANDING. I mean. Wow..thank you..
Good stuff as always. Super informative. Always learn a bunch from watching your channel. Thank you
THERE IS NOT ANY OTHER TH-cam FISHING CHANNEL THAT DESERVES TO HAVE OVER A MILLION SUBSCRIBERS OTHER THAN, TACTICAL F'N BASSIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the video you've been teaching me fishing.I've never had luck top water I'm confident after this video.
Your timing is impeccable as always. I just spotted some bass schooling up in the shallows chasing shad a couple days ago and was able to pick a few of them off with a WP. Can't wait to try some of the other things you guys talked about in this video!
was struggling to find the right rods for my topwaters. This clears it all up. Thanks!
Haven’t watched your videos in a while but I sure glad I did this time, thanks for the presentation!✌️
That binksy!! My favorite during the fall
Nice work Matt. Very helpful!!! Again.
Thanks for all the info👍🏻This is the channel I look forward for new content weekly, even though I fish saltwater mostly. Those Reds, Seatrout and Snook aren’t much different from a Bass.
Appreciate all your videos super informative I’m in the ca delta all your info is spot on👍🏽 keep it up thanks!
Awesome video Matt I love the Whopper plopper always catch good fish on it early morning
Thank for all the info. Great stuff! Look forward to your video's.
You guys give out the best tips and have helped me catch fish keep up the great vids
Hey! Thanks for the information. I live on the Mississippi and I've got access to a ton of backwater spots. But I've got no boat. I've been practicing my shoreline casting since June, and I'm going to get a nice pair of waders next. I'm very excited for Fall, I feel like I've been practicing for this all summer. I subscribed and I hit that bell. Keep the videos coming!
Great Video Matt! When I subscribed you were at 25,000. You'll be at 300,000 by the end of the year! CONGRATULATIONS You got me hooked on Swimbaits in Massachusetts. Having the best couple of years in my life! Don't comment to much because of how much you two blew up, but I still watch all your Videos. Slammers and big wakes have been my go too baits. Thanks again!!
Great video, VERY informative. Thanks for listing all the links, helps finding some of those lures. Great content as always. Keep up awesome job on the channel. ✌️
Matt you and Tim are truly blessed and being from SOUTHEAST Texas. I can't get enough of y'alls videos. I don't even put a line in the water until check and see what is new from month to month. May god continue to bless you and tim and y'alls families.
Thank you Michael!!
@@tacticalbassin there is no need to thank me don't get me wrong I m blessed and humbled that yall took the time out of y'alls busy schedules to even acknowledge me .but it's the truth in the name of jesus every word he gave me to speak.so therefore I don't deserve a thank you it's to him that I give all the glory and praise to. I n the name of jesus it would be a great honor not only to be able to meet the both of but it would be a true blessing from god if I could ever get the chance to meet you both .I'm a disabled spec ops retired veteran. And it's a chore just to be able to get up out of bed some days and walk .and it hinders my abilities to try and go out and pursue my passion for fishing. So yall have to understand the first 17 years of my military career I spent the majority in a desert. And now I have to pray hard just to be able to get the strength up so I can go out on what I call mine and gods lake which Is the only lake out of the seven private lakes in my subdivision. And it's where I go to church and when satan's demonic spirit called PTSD trys to steal kill and robb me of my faith. I don't have the money to be able to go out and purchase any of the lures that I see in y'alls videos but I still watch and learn all I can from mostly Matt .because I know that in gods time I will get all of the blessings have stolen from me by satan will be returned to me not a hundred fold but a thousand fold and that's gods promise. So therefore I love yall in the name of jesus. If you and matt ever come through SOUTHEAST Texas let's say if yall ever fish sam Rayburn a nd end up coming through a town called Livingston Texas give me a call or text me at area code (936) 933-3824. It would be a true honor and a blessing to maybe get a chance to go out fishing with you matt. And maybe get to be in one of your videos. Heck I'm 53 I've accomplished and I've been in every country on gods earth more than once . But I would consider fishing with matt the highlight of my life. I thank you jesus for the both of you and tactical bassin. In the name of jesus be safe out there doing what yall love and thank you for the response back. God bless from SOUTHEAST Texas.
loving the underwater footage. great bait talk too.
Great channel! Always loaded with great tips and techniques. Thanks man!
Awesome tips for more fish during the fall! 👍
wow this was great! very informative, I like the long intensive videos!
Anaother incredible video! Thanks Matt!!🎣
That was the single best intro of 2019
I absolutely LOVE your instructional videos. I have learned so much, and caught so many more fish it's silly. I got 3 new baitcaster for Christmas. Including a new Abu Garcia and a new Lews. The AG came with 2 free lures. A j-walker and a popper. I ended up here trying to do homework in how best to use them. I should have started here. I've been subscribed for about 2 years, yet I didn't look here first. Sorry! Lesson learned!!! 😅🤣😂
Great video with the bes th information!! Taught me alot and showed different types of lures I can use , I do use alot of what you mentioned but not those brands . I'm going to try some of them , thanks again man for all the great info !👍🏻👍🏻
Since I fish almost exclusively top water I was so relieved to see that I still can during the Wisconsin fall! Frogs are getting hit, but stoked to try something different. Thank you for this video! There goes another $75 bucks to TW.
Thanks Matt that red hook has made such a difference in my hook up rate.
That underwater footage is amazing!👍🎣 i would kill for some shots of top water like those!
Hey Matt awesome video, I’ve been catching them on a spook especially late evening before dark on the flats this past week
Matt you guys are incredible. This is without a doubt the best fishing resource out there. The way you share the information make it so easy to learn. Move from Vallejo to Martinsville IN a few years ago and I am trying to learn how to river fish for smallmouth. You ever do a video fishing for small’s on a river or creeks?
Good fall info Matt. 🎣
great tip on the big whopper plopper rod! Thanks!
Matt, you are the Bill Dance, Roland Martin, Jimmy Houston of the younger generation!
I’m waiting for the Saturday morning TacticalBassin television show on ESPN right before College GameDay.
I love the Heddon One Knocker Spook. That deep tungsten thump drives em crazy!
Definitely going to pick up a Chug’n Spook and add it to my arsenal.
Great job as always, brother👊🏻😎
Whopper ploppers are a key morning bite all year long in Louisiana, I keep one on the deck all year long.
Jackall Chan Wake bait. I have added to my "arsenal." It is something to see!
Glad I got my 6"10" Expride last year because they will be sold out again. Lol Cant say it enough you guys are great, Thanks for all you do.
Dobyns 736 cb glass is a monster whopper plopper setup with tatula sv just the perfect blend of power and forgiveness for the bigger ploppers glad matt said the bigger crank rods for them
"A lotta baits and a lotta gear" and there goes a lotta my money, again! LOL! That's cool, I've been waiting for this to build my weak topwater inventory. Headed back into TW today after a morning on the lake. FISH ON!
Great tips. Im going now to try the plopper
Helped me so much bud. You have no idea. Thank you
a whopper plopper with a heavily angled tail can also be used as more or less a kinda popper......while making that bloop noise it also walks itself with the slight jerk to the rod needed to make the lil bloop noise from the tail....makes a great bubble too
Awesome ! Thank you you for sharing sir 👍👍
Great underwater action
These videos are awesome!!!
I have been using my crank rod for my 110 and 130s. Been on an insane plopper bite.
buenisimos señuelos saludos muy buen equipo suerte

Matt - you're talented, man.
90 will outfish the 75.... Love the channel!
Had an incredible evening last night fishing even though its still "the dog days" here in VA. Caught 21 fish in 2.5 hours, 9 being on the new berekely choppo. The topwater bite is still alive and well at the moment here in VA!
Isaac Pelletier where at in VA?

@@aaa3d473 Nice! I love sportsman's warehouse over there! And my buddy just fished the BFL at Smith yesterday. He got 7th!
Live on Pickwick , thanks for the help
6’6” medium casting - Hard to beat for combination of “fun and bait control “,with top water plugs. Rob
Great information Matt 👍
Wow love it!👍👊
Thanks Matty !!!
Awesome stuff
Honestly a popper is one of my fav all around summer baits. Even in the heat if the fish are cruising up shallow I’ve thrown a popper, but I work it so every time I pop it I wait for the ripples to disappear, and I've gotten some huge fish despite the blazing sun. I also throw it on top of submerged tree cause the loud pop gets their attention then it sits there, then on the next pop they usually hit it
I’ve been having a hard time trying to get a bite on my whopper plopper 75 ugh. Landed a 21 inch Smallie Saturday though, over 4lbs but it was on a squarebill!! Biggest smallie I’ve seen in person ever
