Bass Fishing
Post Spawn Bass - Bass Fishing
For a lot of bass fisherman throughout the state the tournament bass fishing often begins directly after the spawn when fish will move off of their beds and begin to move out into the lake. During the spawn bass are located up and down the shores and in shallow bays spawning but as soon as the female is done spawning she will move off the bed and leave the smaller male there to protect the bed.
Night Fishing Tips - Bass Fishing
Finding bass in the summer can be difficult due to how bass will move to deeper water and often suspend and the sheer number of boats on a lake; however bass feed more often during the summertime. When do they feed one might ask the answer is nighttime.Â
Walmart FLW Tour - Table Rock Lake
The Walmart FLW heading to Table Rock Lake in Branson MO for the second tournament of the 2009 FLW Tour. Anglers will be chasing a $125,000 purse in the Pro division and $25,000 in the Co-Angler division of the tournament. Fishermen will need to think big due to a lot of larger bass being caught this time of year on Table Rock Lake, but fishing is often slow this time year and anglers will need to slow their presentation.
Jigging Spoon Fishing
Everybody has heard they are a good lure but how many of us have actually taken the plunge and learned to fish a jigging spoon. My day was several years ago during a bass buddy tournament on my home lake of Lake Raystown in Pennsylvania when I was fishing secondary points for bass and I noticed on my fish finder large schools of fish that were sitting in 20 feet of water suspended in the middle of the water column during a crisp day in October. So I thought about trying a crankbait but that wouldn’t reach the bass, so then I pulled out a jigging spoon that I purchased and that wasn’t even out of the package and thought to myself “What the Heck”. It wasn’t long after using those words that I was a believer in the jigging spoon. My fishing buddy and myself filled our livewells with 2 to 4 pound bass and snagged almost a thousand dollar paycheck with jigging spoons. What I learned that day was that schooling bass that are suspended love a jigging spoon and I have used them in many situations since then with great success from summertime smallmouth to schooling largemouth in the fall.Â
Top 5 Bass Fishing Lures
So many fishing lures so little time, but most bass lures are meant to catch fishermen and not fish.  Yes they all will catch bass, but all lures can be broken down into three categories being top, middle, and bottom. Also all lures are meant to imitate something that the fish are feeding on from shad to crawfish. Other lures are meant to make a bass angry and trigger a reaction strike. I have created this top 5 list that describes what lures I have the most success with and what colors I find the best.
Carolina Rig
The Carolina Rig is one of the most versatile fish catching rigs available to fishermen. You can fish a Carolina Rig in a variety of ways, but usually it is used to target bass on flats and in deep water. The beauty of a Carolina Rig is that it allows you to fish deep water quickly with heavy weight with no effect to the fish. When a fish takes the bait it can run with the bait with no resistance from the sinker due to the line freely slipping through the hole of the sinker.
