When Bigger Is Better: Glide Bait Strategy for Big Bass Bass Fishing Video

When bigger is better in bass fishing? In this episode of Ike in the Shop, I break down my glide bait strategy for targeting big bass - and explain when a big glide bait truly outperforms a smaller one.

We’re talking about those giant 10–12 inch glide baits and why they work in specific situations. From matching big forage like gizzard shad, hitch, bunker, tilapia, and adult panfish… to specifically targeting the biggest fish in the lake… to the undeniable drawing power that these oversized baits have - this video covers it all.

I’ll walk you through:

• When to match big forage
• Why giant baits attract the biggest predators
• The drawing power of a large glide bait
• How to work it (slow roll, chop, 180 turns)
• Easy modifications for depth control
• The right rod, reel, and line setup

One of the baits featured in this video is the Berkley Chop Block, and it’s only $24.99 at Tackle Warehouse, making it an affordable way to experiment with big glide bait fishing. Berkley invests millions into research, testing, and bait development - and that shows in the balance, action, and fish-triggering detail of these baits.

If you’ve ever been intimidated by big glide baits or wondered when to throw them, this video will help you make smarter decisions and fish with confidence.

Because bigger isn’t always better...but when it is, it can help you catch the biggest fish that swims.
