Picking The Right Hook | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

Picking The Right Hook | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "Selecting the correct hook when fishing soft plastic baits is a rather simple choice, but one that can dramatically impact your lure's action and your hooking percentage. Based on the size of the fish, the hook set style used, and how heavy or lightweight your rods and line are, there is a hook that will maximize your landing percentage for each bait. For Texas rigs, weightless Texas rigs, and Carolina rigs, there are a few basic guidelines that I follow. While you may find a different system works better for you, hopefully this will help you more critically evaluate your hook choice in the future."

Monster Fall Pan Fish

Monster Fall Pan Fish: "Bluegill and other sunfish are among some of most popular fish for anglers to catch. They are found in ponds, lakes, and rivers, and are often the first fish caught by many anglers when they began the sport of fishing as a child. Don’t be fooled by their size and beauty, these fish are aggressive predators and will strike both artificial lures. During the fall, with the water temperatures in the 70- to 75-degree range, it is the best time to pursue the sunfish as they often move around due to changing light, water temperature, forage and cover. "
