Land More Fish With These 7 Crankbait Presentations | Outdoor Life

Land More Fish With These 7 Crankbait Presentations | Outdoor Life: "The crankbait is one of a handful of “dumb” lures. What I mean is, they can be fished successfully by simply casting them out and then cranking them back to the bank or boat. But if you’d like to increase your fish-catching quota significantly, and who wouldn’t, I suggest you add a bit of flair on your next retrieve."

Seasonal Bass Fishing: Tips For Different Times Of The Year | Bass Fishing Magazine: Learn How to Bass Fish with Bass Angler Magazine

Seasonal Bass Fishing: Tips For Different Times Of The Year | Bass Fishing Magazine: Learn How to Bass Fish with Bass Angler Magazine: "The general consensus is that bass will bite at any time during the course of a day, but the first and last light of the day (dawn and dusk) are prime times. Bass are most active in cool water between 60-75 degrees Fahrenheit, which means spring and fall are the best seasons to catch them. Colder water slows down the metabolism of the fish, which suppresses their appetites and makes them tougher to catch. Warmer water means lower dissolved oxygen levels, less movement and fewer opportunities for anglers."

Pinnacle OP30 Spinning Reel and DHC5M-701SPML Rod Review | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

Pinnacle OP30 Spinning Reel and DHC5M-701SPML Rod Review | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "For the last several days I have been field-testing the rod and reel combination described above.  My initial impressions of the combo were mixed.  Both the rod and reel were real pieces of eye candy.  Not surprisingly, the reel had the most ‘bling,’ with porting and carbon-fiber trim around the circumference of the spool.  http://www.pinnaclef...spx#page=page-1
   Perhaps my greatest surprise was the “exploded” drawing of the reel that was included in the box.  It measures 10” by 14.”  For those of us who like to maintain their own reels, the drawing is a godsend compared to the seemingly postage-stamp drawings provided by other manufacturers.
   The rod, with its new Fuji Alconite Model K micro-guides, all twelve of them, was a beauty to behold also.  I especially liked the split grips.  The cork was first-class, with no pits or blemishes."

Afflicted: A Primer for Winter River Smallmouth Fishing | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "Each spring, I get a chuckle out of comments from people who know me only casually.  “It’s almost fishing season, are you getting excited?” inquires a coworker.  “Yep, I’m ready!”  I reply without further explanation.  I’m ready when the first red maple buds drop, and I’m ready at 4:30 a.m. on an early February Saturday morning when the forecast features freezing rain."
