Spinnerbaits in Spring | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

Spinnerbaits in Spring | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "During spring the number one lure for bass caught during tournaments has got to be a spinnerbait. There's not a better, more productive, lure this time of year that will catch more and bigger fish.
   Sure, a jig or crankbait might catch the big bass of the tournament, but a spinnerbait will undoubtedly account for a majority of the fish brought to the scales.
   Over all my years of guiding I have been surprised at the number of anglers that have no confidence in a spinnerbait."

Cranking The Grass | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

Cranking The Grass | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "Cold is early spring. Cold is lethargic. Cold is idle. Cold is suspended. Cold is huddled fin-to-fin, tight as a ball. And cold is a small meal for a small appetite.

Trappin Bass In The Jungle - Part I | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

Trappin Bass In The Jungle - Part I | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "Inches below the surface of the stained water, is an intimidating minefield of stumps and decaying timber.  Endless acres of aquatic shallows are choked by hydrilla, coontail, pond weed, deertounge grass, lily pads, and alligator weeds.  The locals call it “The Jungle”.  
   Even if a visiting angler was warned by the native residents to stick to the river channels when up on plane, and been wisely cautioned to crawl through the menacing jungle to preserve their bass boat’s gelcoat from submerged wood; it would only take a few minutes for the average crankbait enthusiast to conclude that weedless jigs and plastics might be a wiser choice.  And they would be… wrong!  At least according to veteran guide, Mike Siefert."
