Summer bass fishing has been hotter than expected | HamptonRoads.com | PilotOnline.com: "Quite often during the stifling heat of the summer, bass fishing becomes more and more difficult because of high water temperatures.

I mean, would you want to burn up a bunch of energy chasing down a meal in today’s funk?

But remarkably, fishing tournaments out of Bob’s Fishing Hole on the Northwest River in southern-most Chesapeake have been producing some excellent catches. Many five-fish limits have been averaging three pounds a fish or more."

Spinnerbaits, Topwater Baits, & Crankbaits | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "Serious and even not so serious, bass anglers should never leave home without an assortment of spinnerbaits, topwaters and lipless crankbaits, why?
Because they are Efficient, Always, Successful, Year-round Baits
If you were to look in a professional angler's boat during practice before a big tournament, chances are you would see spinnerbaits, lipless crankbaits and topwater baits tied on to at least three rods, and they would either be on the deck or within easy reach in the rod box. The main reason for having these baits tied on at all times is that these are fish finding and fish catching baits that always work."

Fishing With The Wind | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

Fishing With The Wind | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "When I first began fishing tournaments, panic set in any time the wind forecast was over 10 mph. I hated the wind because it made boat control difficult, drained trolling motor batteries, caused constant backlashes and left me with some "punk" hairdos before they were in style. I detested the wind - it blew my mind and gave me a bad attitude. I was defeated before I ever made my first cast.
   One day, I remember reading an article about the wind being your friend. It said success would improve for those who quit fighting it and worked with it instead. I studied that article in depth and began readjusting my attitude."
