Pocket : The Muckity-Muck of Your Pond: "Summer is here, you're sitting on the deck enjoying the birds, fish, frogs and just reveling in amazement at how beautiful your pond is. Summer is a wonderful time to enjoy your pond and it's also a wonderful time for a variety of plants to grow. These may include alga and nuisance aquatic weeds. Warm water and nutrients can make several species proliferate."

Pocket : A Lesson From Our Brothers In The North: "As bass anglers, we always have fish pecking at our lures. Fish like bluegill, crappie, and other panfish are known for how easy they irritate a bass angler or get him off game. For walleye anglers, bass serve as a nuisance in their fishing endeavors.

Pocket : Clear-Water Tactics

Pocket : Clear-Water Tactics: "Growing up in west Texas and fishing off-colored lakes such as Colorado City, Twin Buttes, Thomas, E.V. Spence (or anywhere else we could find water), I never really knew what clear water was until I moved to Del Rio and started fishing Amistad. I have nothing against west Texas lakes. As a matter of fact, some of my most memorable fishing trips were on these lakes, and I was fortunate enough to catch many a big bass out of them. But they differ greatly from the clear-water impoundments in the state."

Pocket : Fishing Deep

Pocket : Fishing Deep: "Fishing deep intimidates some anglers. After all, casting to shore is relatively easy - you have a highly visible target (shoreline) and all you have to do is choose a lure and cover the water. If the fish are up shallow, that's the way to go. But let's face it - a lot of times the fish just aren't there. During the summer especially, when water temperatures soar and dissolved oxygen is scarce in the shallows, the bass will just be more comfortable down deep. But warmer water means they need to eat more, so an angler who masters deep-water fishing techniques can be extremely successful."

Pocket : Summer Fishing Tips

Pocket : Summer Fishing Tips: "The summer months are considered by some anglers as the toughest in which to catch a good sack of bass. But this time of year is always my favorite to fish tournaments. I've had a lot of success in tournaments during the summer and it's because I like to fish structure in deep water. Without a doubt, how you structure fish in deep water is the question I am asked most by other anglers, both competitors and non-tournament fishermen."
