Bank Fishing Forum - General Bass Fishing Forum — www.bassresource.com — Readability

Bank Fishing Forum - General Bass Fishing Forum — www.bassresource.com — Readability: "I've been boatless the last few years, but there's not a lot of difference between bank fishing and boat fishing except, casting angles, access to structure that's beyond casting distance from shore and electronics. I really miss knowing what the bottom looks like. I'm not an accomplished enough fisherman to really tell the depth or bottom composition that a lot of guys on here talk about. "

Fishing Swimbaits, Using A Swimbait Rod For Bass Swimbaits, Swimbait Lures

Fishing Swimbaits, Using A Swimbait Rod For Bass Swimbaits, Swimbait Lures: "Real baitfish, such as shiners, shad and creek minnows and other forage like bluegill, crappie, frogs and lizards are never rejected by a bass "because they don't "look or act right". Perhaps a bass is not interested in one forage over another on any given day, just as we don't want pizza every day. However, they will always eat at least one "real" forage type when hungry."

Skipping The Surface — www.bassresource.com — Readability

Skipping The Surface — www.bassresource.com — Readability: "Skipping a lure across the surface is somewhat like skipping a stone. The more splats and "pitty-patters" it makes, the further it goes. With intense practice, most anglers can pick up the basics in an afternoon. But then comes the finer points of controlled direction, distance and accuracy. That takes much more practice."
