The Money Bait | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

The Money Bait | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "It has long been common knowledge that the skirted jig bags heavier bass on average than anything short of wild golden shiners and dynamite.

But when you leaf through the archives of major bass tournaments, the jig clearly stands alone in producing victories and a veritable mountain of cash."

Don't Give 'Em No Lip! | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

Don't Give 'Em No Lip! | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "When I first became introduced to the lipless crankbait I was primarily in the "farm pond" phase of my fishing career. When I could get off after school or during the summer, my trusty (?) 1947 four-cylinder Willis would hit the county roads of Lamar and Red River county finding as many folks as possible who would let a kid cast in their farm pond. Among the real producers in my tackle box were some swimming minnow-type baits."

How's Your Bass Persona? | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

How's Your Bass Persona? | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "To me the most important thing you bring to your fishing ability is your own individuality. Remember that you are an original. No one can copy you exactly. And you can't copy anyone exactly. This one fact can be the greatest technique you have. Your personality and individualism are major assets if you learn how to use them in your fishing. I can tell you that if you don't let your instincts take over and use that individuality you can never be a great fisherman."
