Setting Up A Baitcaster With Pete Ponds | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

Setting Up A Baitcaster With Pete Ponds | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "A backlash that requires lots of picking and cutting of line is one of the most frustrating situations in bass fishing.
   The frustrating situation becomes compounded when an angler is just learning how to use a baitcast reel while on a fishing trip. In some extreme cases, these anglers get so exasperated with the baitcaster that they never use one again. "

Harvest - A Success Story | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

Harvest - A Success Story | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "biologist Bob Lusk.
One 50-acre impoundment in Texas called Pinto Valle Lake produced excellent spawns of bass, with no survival of young. The bass population ranged in size from eight to 10, and every fish was 20-to-30 percent underweight.
   The forage base was empty. No bluegill, no shiners, no nothing. Reason: The lake had too many bass, too little food. The bass could not grow. To survive, the bass leaped from the water to catch dragon flies. On any summer evening, just before dark, people would drive to the lake and set up their lawn chairs, just to watch the bass jump for insects. This makes for cheap entertainment, but poor growth-rates for largemouth."

How To Fish Tube Baits | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

How To Fish Tube Baits | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "The names Bobby and Garry Garland are certain to be enshrined in the Freshwater Fishing Hall of Fame one day due to the original tube bait the brothers developed called the Gitzit. The invented the lure to help them catch finicky fish on Lake Mead in Arizona. It is still one of the best finesse baits ever designed. There are tons of knock-offs, but a lot of anglers insist that the original Gitzit is the best. Sadly Bobby and Garry have both passed on. I actually met up with Garry a few years before he died and fished Roosevelt with him."

Falling Overboard | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

Falling Overboard | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "If you have ever witnessed someone fall overboard, you've felt the chills of reality. Fishing from a boat can be dangerous, but don't feel somewhat guilty if you have felt some humor in it, too.
   Sometimes, an accident can be dangerously funny. That may sound like a redundant term, but it isn't. It is human nature to laugh at someone else's mishaps when no injuries have occurred. But even under the laugh, it also is human nature to realize that you understand the seriousness of the mishap and are prepared to take extra cautions to make sure it never happens to you or to a friend."

Trolling crankbaits on the edges of the rock reefs in eight to 10 feet has been best for walleyes during the evening hours. Smallmouth continue to be an easy catch and northern pike reports have improved with sucker minnows in 12 feet in most bays."

How To Develop A Pattern | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

How To Develop A Pattern | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "How many times have you heard or read a newspaper on a bass tournament winner using such-and-such pattern for winning the tournament? What are they talking about? What is a pattern? A pattern is the method, how, what, sometimes when, and where in a given lake you are catching bass consistently. There can be a pattern within a pattern, and there can also be more than one pattern used during the day. Typically patterns are easier to develop for reservoirs."

How's Your Bass Persona? | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

How's Your Bass Persona? | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "To me the most important thing you bring to your fishing ability is your own individuality. Remember that you are an original. No one can copy you exactly. And you can't copy anyone exactly. This one fact can be the greatest technique you have. Your personality and individualism are major assets if you learn how to use them in your fishing. I can tell you that if you don't let your instincts take over and use that individuality you can never be a great fisherman.
   There's nothing wrong with copying a technique from someone else, or learning all you can, just remember to apply your own personality to that. With that thought in mind, here are some exercises in extending the personality of your fishing to make it more successful."
