Bassmaster Elite Series Pro and Bassmaster Classic Champion Mike “Ike” Iaconelli is on the water with Bass University breaking down how to fish the wind. 

Ike discusses why fishing wind is important and can help concentrate fish in certain parts of the lake. Many anglers tend to shy away and hide from the wind, Ike says don’t be scared! Mike dives into his favorite baits for attacking the wind, emphasizing power fishing as the ultimate wind technique. 

Iaconelli talks about the wind front pattern, and his on-the-water demonstration targets wind-blown banks, grass edges, and docks. Fish position themselves into the wind, and Ike demonstrates this with multiple fish catches on the wind front pattern. 

Tune into this Bass University on the water class with Bassmaster Champion Mike Iaconelli to gain confidence in fishing windy conditions on your lake!
