Struggles to Success
Learning something and figuring it out might be the best feeling a person can have, especially when it comes to fishing. Not catching a single thing to catching a fish every ten minutes is a sensation that never gets old. From just being lucky to then not catching a single thing, and then catching bass is a feeling one can get used to. Catching bass is a difficult thing to do, but if you research and study the movement of the bass, it can get much easier and ten times more fun as well. When I was young, I would always just go out to my pond and throw on a spinnerbait and catch fish like no other. I remember catching big fish when my dad was shredding around the pond and him having come take the fish off. It was just that easy. But

For example, plastic worms (senkos) is something I never thought would work. Now I would have to say it is my best bait. Another example is the frog, which is a top water bait. One would just reel it in while switching their speeds and the bass would just come and jump up out of the water to grab it. I would say the frog is my favorite bait to throw. The time of day when you fish is also a big factor along with the wind. The morning is probably the best time to fish because the wind is down and the fish are aggressive and hungry after they wake up. Right when the sun comes up is the best time to throw the top water baits like the frog or buzzbait. The fish can easily notice that there is something making a lot of noise and go and grab it. When the sun comes up higher is the best time to throw your underwater baits like the Senko. Before sunset and after sunset is another good time to fish, you can use the same tactics as in the morning and it should work just as good. For example, one morning, I was using the frog bait and I caught two four pound bass. That is a great morning if one can accomplish
being able to fish and feel the ocean breeze every day was a blessing. Perhaps I might be a beach
There are two things that should be considered in bass fishing, which are, the bass location on the lake or river and bass catching using different techniques, presentations and baits.
My family fishes on a dock, but many people fish on a boat out on the water. Fishing can also vary with the type of bait used. My family uses live bait, but there are other types of baits and lures that fisherman use, such as worms or rubber lures. The bait used depends on the type of fish you’re fishing for and the type of water you’re fishing in. Rods also vary depending on the type of fish you are looking to catch, and the environment you are fishing in. My family uses carbon fiber fishing rods, but there are many different types such as fly rods, trolling rods and surf rods. Fishing is a great pastime and the many different variables help to make the activity
Spring is the season of spawning and population growth. When the water temperature is high enough, usually around or above 60°, the male bass will move closer inland and scope out a spot to build a nest or bed. “The most active spawning occurs when the water for the first time reaches 65-degree mark” (The Behavior and Habits of Largemouth Bass). This pre-spawn period is the easiest time to catch a fish, and it is best to fish near structure such as wood...
Fishing and hunting are alike because they are both outdoor sports that requires a heap of patience, but they are different due to variance in weather, equipment, and environment. Both sports require years of practice and knowledge of the hunters and the fisherman's rules. In the end, it is always nice to get the “big one” like a monster buck or trout. According to a recent report, patience in the sport of hunting and fishing encourages one to try and work hard to reach the goal of catching the large buck and the heaviest speckled trout. Having patience is a skill that hunters and fishermen work to improve.
Open water fishing is pretty much self-explanatory but open water fishing is what most people do because it doesn’t need a lot of equipment. Open water fishing is usually done between late or early spring depending on
The types of fish that are available will vary with each type of location and conditions and the person manning a small fishing supply can also give you a quick orientation of what you'll need to catch the most common game in the area you expect to spend time at. If I'm traveling between islands, I'll generally stay away from bait rigs as it's just too much of a hassle and prospects are good enough with a simple lure. Depending upon where you are, however, the colors of the lures and the type of action will make a big difference in your ability to get a chase from the fish in the
After many days of no rain the brookies will start looking for food because nothing has been washed up for them, so if a fisherman comes along and presents enticing bait to the trout, it will usually be eager to take the bait.
Because they can't see very well in clear water, bass are not attracted to lightly colored baits yet if you use a dark colored bait your chances for catching bass in clear water greatly increase. Many bass anglers have said that they find that dark black, blue, brown and green baits like crankbaits, spoons and spinners seem to work exceptionally well when fishing in clear water situations.
My first fishing experience was with my dad and my older brother when I was seven. Driving up to the creek, walking through the muddy path on the twisting dirt road. I could feel my dad’s pride
Various types of fishing can help improve your mind and body, irrespective of your experience or interest. If you are looking for a great way to unwind, stay fit and de-stress, then consider
Just as in any other sport, understanding gives rise to advantage and success. As serious fishermen, we had dedicated much thought to understanding the fish, hypothesizing their behavior. One understanding we had already gained through previous experiences was that fish readily eat the prey that is normally available. This, we concluded, was a sort of defense against fishermen and their foreign lures and was acquired through the fishes’ own previous experience of eating a lure. In applying this understanding to our fishing, we performed a routine food chain analysis to find out what our lures needed to imitate. The results were that the part of the food chain just beneath our quarry consisted mostly of small fish such as anchovies and young yellowtail, smaller than those shad and bluegill normally eaten in freshwater ponds. To compensate for this difference we would have to use lures smaller than those we were used to using. Luckily we had some.
