Seasonal Lure Selection | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

Seasonal Lure Selection | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "Do you really only fish certain lures during each of the four seasons of the year? Sometimes going outside the expected can be a good strategy.
   Although for anglers there are only four seasons, for bass each season needs to be broken down into fish activity to understand the lure selection, size and colors."

The Texas Rigged Plastic Worm | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

The Texas Rigged Plastic Worm | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "First, let us discuss tackle. The rod is the most critical piece of equipment. You are looking for a rod that is very sensitive at the tip yet has a lot of backbone for setting the hook and horsing fish from cover. In today's world, you can find rods specifically made for worm fishing in all price ranges and weights. I personally use All Star WR1 and WR2 rods exclusively. These rods are made from IM8 graphite blanks, 6 ½ feet long, in a heavy- to medium-heavy weight making them very sensitive, a lot of backbone and you can feel the bite without any trouble. The price is nominal, but if the price is too high for you, look at the Tourney Special rods at Bass Pro Shops. The point is that any of these rods provide the sensitivity or "feel" you need for worm fishing. I recommend buying at least one of each weight"

A Bass'n Plan: Open water tactics for 2014 - Outdoor News - May 2014

A Bass'n Plan: Open water tactics for 2014 - Outdoor News - May 2014: "There are two kinds of spring bass fishermen: the fair-weather type who waits until late May, and the eager beaver who gets on the water shortly after the ice leaves.

The fair-weather angler will catch his share of bass, but the eager beaver will catch a lot more – and bigger – because he will be fishing during the pre-spawn season."

Top early-season walleye fishing techniques - Outdoor News - May 2013

Top early-season walleye fishing techniques - Outdoor News - May 2013: "How about some thoughts on specific early season walleyes techniques. For starters, as I’ve suggested before, always have a game plan and pre-rig your rods!

Generally speaking, you can toss small jigs in the shallow areas you’re likely targeting for walleyes this open-water season. Say 1/16-ouncers, because we don’t want to spook fish with big hardware. Tip your jig with a minnow or (if you can find them this spring) a leech."

Minnesota Fishing Report: Ross’s Fishing Review | East Silent Resort

Minnesota Fishing Report: Ross’s Fishing Review | East Silent Resort: "Things are beginning to move forward in Otter Tail Lakes Country. We had an amazing week of intense warm weather which really heated up the lakes FAST! Too fast? It’s a hard question to answer. Fishing surged on some lakes in the county while others seemed to drift backwards. On the walleye side of things, the shiners are in a big hurry to get rid of their spawn."

Lake Fishing Reports MN Fish Winnie Cass Leech Winnibigoshish Pokegama

Lake Fishing Reports MN Fish Winnie Cass Leech Winnibigoshish Pokegama: "I'm going to let you in on a little secret about one of the most reliable patterns for early summer, mixed bag fishing that I know about.
Fishing newly emerging patches of Coontail and Northern Milfoil Weeds.
You Know the ones that I'm talking about, the ones that during late summer, that grow all the way to the surface and float like a carpet. Those really thick patches of weeds that you won't even try to fish during late summer because they're too thick to work in.
Well that is then and this is now. During the first couple of weeks in June, these weed patches are just beginning to emerge and fishing in them is easily manageable. When the weed stalks are short 6 to 12 inches tall, they attract and hold all sorts of bait for the fish. Minnows, insect larvae, you name it. If it's good for the fish, you can find it in these thick, green weeds."
