Zack Birge: This Finds Fish When Nothing Else Will — His Alternative to Finesse

Most bass fishing anglers grab finesse baits when the bite gets tough. Zack Birge goes against the grain—he ties on a buzzbait to keep power-fishing alive in cold, pressured water. In this episode, he breaks down how this overlooked lure still finds fish fast, triggers big bites, and unlocks new lakes when nothing else will.

What you’ll learn:

• Cool-water buzzbait rules that work into the low-50s • How sound, trailer drag, and retrieve speed change the bite • The rod, reel, and braid setup that keeps big ones pinned • Wire and track tweaks so it runs true around wood and grass • When to switch to a bladed jig—and when to keep the buzzer in hand • Target lanes, boat angles, and “find-’em-fast” passes that show where quality lives
