Using fish spray as lubricant. Fish spray will help with two things. Obviously, scenting your bait is never a bad idea, especially when fishing around thick cover where visibility is sometimes limited. Mizell’s main purpose for using fish spray, however, is to allow it to act as a lubricant. Slicking your soft plastic up will help the bait slip through the thickest matted vegetation. 2. Pattern the fish. Patterning is key when it comes to punching matted vegetation. Finding out their positioning within the mat on any given day is essential. Mizell says that on most days, bass will be located either right on the edge or right in the heart of the mat. Diving in even deeper, figuring out if they are right under the mat or closer to bottom, can pick you up a couple of extra bites. 3. Watch the weather. Keeping a close eye on the forecast is something Mizell does throughout the year. Cold fronts often send fish to matted vegetation in search of warmer water. These are the best opportunities to have a hay day. Conversely, warmer extended forecasts may spread fish out a bit more and force you to try different tactics. 4. Finding the right cover. Mizell is very specific about finding the “right” type of mat. The keys to a good mat are being hollow, with little to no vegetation under the canopy of the mat, and having a hard sand bottom. Cane grass is a very good indicator of providing that good, hard bottom. 5. Quiet is key. Being stealthy is a huge component of hand-to-hand combat with these fish. Getting close enough to the mat to fish it effectively, but without spooking the fish, is a skill that takes some practice. Mizell says having a solid and quiet trolling motor is the first place to start. ► SUBSCRIBE for more AWESOME FISHING TIPS: https://wired2.fish/YTSub FOLLOW US HERE: ► https://www.wired2fish.com ►   / wired2fish_official   ►   / wired2fish   ►   / wired2fish
