Color Selection Simplified | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "How many of you anglers who walk into Tackle Shops, Discount Stores, K-Marts, WalMarts, etc., go straight to the sporting goods department, look for the fishing rods sticking up in the air to zero in on the Fishing Lures and Plastic Baits section? Then, when you get there, you start looking over all of the enormous selections of all the different baits and different colors that are offered by the many bait companies that are on the market today, and you're not really sure of exactly what is really needed.

Hair Jigs | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "Hair jigs are considered an old-school basic bait, and are almost forgotten.  Everyone has seen them, and yet few use them.  The first time I saw one, I thought it was for salt-water use, or for crappie, or for some other species; but it’s really an unbelievable bass bait – especially under super tough conditions."

Just How Long Is Long Enough? | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

Just How Long Is Long Enough? | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "I know that the title of this article can mean a great many things to a lot of different people. For example: How long is long enough when visiting with your in-laws? or How long is long enough being engaged to your honey before the big commitment? What I am talking about here, is a question that I have been asked many times by my bass fishing school students, my bass charters, in emails, and even some phone calls. That is, "how long is long enough" spending time with a certain bait or at a location when fishing for bass?"

The Double Tap - Fishing For The Second Hit | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

The Double Tap - Fishing For The Second Hit | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "A number of years ago while doing some fall fishing at Lake of the Ozarks with my longtime friend Jeff, I learned a valuable lesson I have never forgotten. We were working a steep bank near some tree falls trying desperately to finesse a lunker largemouth into the boat. Jeff was slowly walking a Texas rigged 7-inch black worm with a 3/8 oz. bullet weight across the bottom while I was raising and lowering my favorite pumpkin colored twin tail grub on a 3/8 oz. jig head through the clear 72 degree water. It was early in the day and fishing was good. "
