Selecting Fishing Line | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

Selecting Fishing Line | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "Choosing a fishing line can be a very interesting challenge for even the most seasoned bass fisherman. In fact if you wait a few weeks it seems like there is either a new product from a company that isn't basically known for manufacturing line or a new line offered by one of the larger companies. Likewise there aren't some of the products on the market that were billed as the greatest thing since sliced bread just a few years ago."

Hard Metal Rap | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: ""What's with that thing?" was the remark from Kevin VanDam's partner at a recent tournament on Lake St. Clair. "Do you really expect to catch a bass using that lure in this situation?" The "thing" was a compact metal lure, and VanDam was about to show him a thing or two.
Jigging spoons, blade baits and tailspinners are three renegade lures often considered outcasts by fishermen brought up on a strict diet of jigs and worms."

The Best Bait for Big Bass | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

The Best Bait for Big Bass | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "The bait enters the water with laser like precision. Slowly it descends through the labyrinth of thick cover. Then it happens, you feel a little tap followed by pressure on the line. You reel down to take up the slack and "BOOM" an underwater World War III erupts. The feeling I get from catching a big bass on a jig is absolutely intense. I just don't know how such a strange looking bait can produce big limits time and again. The truth is I don't really care as long as it never stops working."

Years ago, when I used to keep records of my catches, I was surprised to learn that I caught just as many 8-pound-plus fish in December as I did during the spawning month of April, and that’s the truth.
Admittedly, I caught a lot more fish in April, and I didn’t get many bites in December. But when I did hook a winter fish, the chances of it being a big one were good."
