How to Fish Grass for Bass

How to Fish Grass for Bass: "Anglers either love it or hate it. Fishing grass can be some of the best experiences or some of the most frustrating and that's generally determined by an angler's attitude and strategy. Just because there is grass doesn't mean you ignore all the other variables in fishing. How you fish grass is important, but knowing where in a field of grass to fish is probably more important."

New Mojo Bass Glass Target Cranker Lets You Cast Crankbaits Spot On Like a Pro - OutdoorHub.com

New Mojo Bass Glass Target Cranker Lets You Cast Crankbaits Spot On Like a Pro - OutdoorHub.com: "A long distance cast? That can become most anyone’s claim to fame after just a few moments of on-the-water lobs. How about the angler who can get a bait to bull’s-eye with every flip of the wrist? That’s the signature of someone who’s made countless casts—each time the lure landing precisely where it needs to be—snug to structure."

Mining For Bronze | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "Arguably, bass are bass. Whether it's a smallmouth in a high east Tennessee reservoir or a smallmouth in a sprawling New England lake, these fish behave in the same general manner. They migrate to shallow water in the spring, back out to deeper water in the summer and then invade the shallows again as the water cools and winter approaches"

Alabama Rig scoring on bass for lake fishermen - www.record-bee.com

Alabama Rig scoring on bass for lake fishermen - www.record-bee.com: "While the warm weather has improved the bass fishing at Clear Lake, it's still not a sure bet. A number of fishermen report catching only two or three bass for a full day's effort. The water surface temperatures have been as high as 51 degrees by late in the afternoon and the bass are becoming more active.

The other good news is that the Alabama Rig has been working for a number of anglers. One fisherman reported catching five bass in one small area north of Lakeport. He said all were caught on a Alabama Rig. In addition, he said he had a number of bass follow the rig right up to the boat before turning away. Most of the fishermen are rigging three swimbaits with hooks and two as teasers."

Pre-Spawn Bass Fishing Secrets: " It is getting very close to the time of year when bass will be moving to shallow water to feast on emerging crawfish and for good reason, nutrients. Crawfish have about 7x the nutritional value more than shad, and this is needed for bass to spawn. Pre spawn is the time of year when the bass can be found anywhere from forty feet deep as well as just below the surface."

Biggest mistakes beginning Crappie fishermen make. - Texas Fishing Forum

Biggest mistakes beginning Crappie fishermen make. - Texas Fishing Forum: "I don't think bottom up or top down matters a lot as long as you find the right depth, and do it in a timely manner. If the fish are holding a rock pile on the bottom, start just off the bottom. If you're fishing a bridge that has a cross member 10 feet down, start at that depth or a little less."
