So Many Bass Fishing Techniques, So Little Time

So Many Bass Fishing Techniques, So Little Time: "Learning the many different bass fishing techniques will not only make you a better fisherman but will increase you enjoyment of bass fishing as well.

Many non-fishermen think bass fishing is a guy sitting in a boat or on the bank with a cane pole (we use rods!!!), a line with a worm on a hook tossed lazily in the water.  The fisherman is laid back and napping while waiting for a bite.  When you think about, it that's not a bad way to spend a day, especially if
you have some sandwiches and beer to keep you company."

The Devil’s Horse – A Propbait Served Southern Style – Part I | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

The Devil’s Horse – A Propbait Served Southern Style – Part I | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "

Smithwick Devils Horse
The invention of the propeller changed the world.  Whether it was attached to a boat or an airplane, it is associated with high RPM's – (Revolutions Per Minute) – and designed for increasing the speed at which something moves.
   So when Smithwick designed and manufactured the Devil’s Horse back in the 1950’s, equipped with not one but two props, it is understandable why anglers still make the connection between props and speed.  Novice anglers often tie on the bait for the first time and assume it should be raced across the surface, or “ripped” sporadically back to the boat. "

Pocket : Electrofishing: The Truth of Shocking

Pocket : Electrofishing: The Truth of Shocking: "My dad liked to tease us kids and I remember one particular day when he got me good. I was fourteen years old, and I'd enjoyed being home alone for a few hours. At the supper table that night, dad looked at me with that look and asked, "Anyone come here today, while you were here by yourself?" I looked up over my fork, and said, "No sir." He said, "Are you positive?" "Absolutely positive," I said. There had been no one at our house, period. "Wanna bet your allowance on it?"
