Winter bass fishing can be incredible—but it can also be dangerous if you’re not prepared. In this episode of the Serious Angler Podcast, we break down winter bass fishing safety tips every angler needs to know to stay warm, dry, and safe on the water.

We cover the real differences between insulated cold-weather fishing gear vs rain gear, how wind chill affects your body temperature, and why blocking wind is often more important than blocking rain during winter fishing. We also dive into cold water immersion, what actually happens if you fall into cold water from a boat, kayak, or while bank fishing, and the critical steps that can help you survive.
