Where to Find Bass | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "Of course, even if you have all the latest gear, you still won't catch any bass if you don't know where they are. Finding the fish is often the most difficult part of bass fishing. Bass move about a lake, pond, reservoir or stream as the seasons and water conditions change. Time of year, water temperatures, water levels, weather, light and the availability of food are all contributing factors to the migrating characteristics of the black bass."

Bass Biology | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

Bass Biology | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "Their body temperature and more importantly, their metabolism is controlled by water temperature. The warmer the water, the higher their metabolism. Bass are most active between about 60 degrees and 75 degrees. Below about 50 degrees, their metabolism slows down, causing them to eat infrequently. Above about 80 degrees, low dissolved oxygen levels in the water place them under stress. Dead perch may be an indication of low oxygen levels."

Take Advantage Of How Bass Hear | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "For a sight-fishing fish like a bass, the senses of smell and hearing are important to let the fish know that food is around. Once a bass is alerted to the potential food, it can get closer and may or may not decide that it is food. According to Dr. Keith Jones, bass are not very good at localizing sound. Sound does more to alert them, after which they switch to visual to home in on the possible food source."

Bass Habitats | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "Rivers can provide excellent habitat for bass. Rivers are highly oxygenated and the oxygen is usually evenly mixed from top to bottom. Rivers often receive less fishing pressure than lakes. Temperatures in a river are moderate as compared with lakes. Rivers are generally slightly warmer in winter and cooler in summer than lakes. Look for bass close to, but out of, the direct flow of the current"
