Building A Better Brush Pile | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

Building A Better Brush Pile | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "If you really want to get serious about setting out brush piles prepare yourself for some hard work, but it can pay off big later. Bass will use brush piles throughout the year but the heat of summer and winter are the prime times to fill your livewell with brush pile bass, or turn that 14 pound limit into a 20 pound sack with a big brush pile kicker.
   I want my pile to be about the size of my boat. It's large enough to hold multiple fish but I can fish it in 15 minutes or so."

Spruce Up Your Pond | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "Christmas trees. Untold numbers are discarded after the holiday season each year. However, don't throw them away. They can be used to create fish habitat.
   Generally speaking, Christmas tree structures are primarily used to concentrate fish for angling. Members of the sunfish family, such as largemouth bass, bluegill, and crappies are attracted to submerged trees. Small fishes hide there for protection. Larger fishes may seek protection, or may chase the small fishes that are attracted by it.
   Occasionally, tree structures are added for spawning habitat. One good example involves yellow perch. If any northern readers have yellow perch in their ponds, this species likes to entangle their egg masses on submerged trees."

Slow Down For Winter | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

Slow Down For Winter | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "This winter and early spring season of the year is a fine time to chase Mr. Largemouth. Actually, "chase" may not be the right word in these cold water temperatures. A slow, steadfast pursuit is more like it.
   Most of the time in late winter, cabin fever is running pretty high. Anglers are ready to rock and roll, but the half-frozen bass are sulking on the bottom somewhere in deep water waiting for spring. These two contradictory and opposing moods often result in a tough bite. Quite often it's a really tough bite"
