Catch Aggressive Largemouth Bass on the Chicago River | Chatterbait & Drop Shot Techniques

Hey anglers! Join me on the Chicago River for some exciting summer bass fishing, where the largemouth bass are aggressive thanks to the warm weather. In this video, I’ll show you how I used my confidence bait, the white chatterbait, to locate active bass and then successfully pick them off with a drop shot rig.
Learn effective fishing techniques for targeting largemouth bass, including using a chatterbait to find fish and switching to a drop shot for precision targeting. These strategies will help you maximize your success, whether you're kayak fishing or casting from the shore.
