Fishing Bites!

"Fish Bites"

To prevent your big one from getting away, here are some fun fish
bites and facts to help you make the most of your bass fishing trips:

a) Learn the layout of the land where you're going to fish. Look
for shady hiding places - lily pads, dock areas, etc. Know where
you can go if you need to change course and cast somewhere else.

b) Learn about tides if you're fishing for bass in tidal waters so
you don't get trapped in unsafe areas when the high waters start
pouring back into your spot.

c) Always fish with safety in mind for others and yourself. Follow
all boating and fishing rules and regulations. And carry a first
aid kit, a charged cell phone (even if it's turned off), water, and
healthy snacks.

d) Largemouth bass prefer still waters and deep waters, often
hugging the bottom. Smallmouth bass like free flowing waters.
Striped bass or black bass often appear green. They are not only
freshwater lovers, but also can be found in marine waters and can
even move between both habitats. Redeye bass, also known as bass,
smallmouth, black bass, Chipola bass, and Coosa bass are found
generally in rock shoals, rocky or gravel bottomed runs, rivers and
streams.

Well, there's still much more to say about bass fishing, but it's

More tips from John Landry!

A) Largemouth are about the easiest of fish of all varieties to
find because they congregate around cover like lily pads, weeds,
boat docks, etc.

B) Largemouth fish also like to search for their food in shallow
waters a lot and have been known to be found in shallow pool areas
of water or places where there is low tide.

C) Although largemouth fish eat nearly anything, smallmouth
varieties can generally be more finicky eaters. These smaller
mouths prefer lots of smaller baitfish - like crayfish and other
tiny species of fish, instead of racing towards anything and
everything that moves in the water around them. So vary your bait
types to match these needs.

D) Weather and water conditions are important for bass fishing.
Bass like shade and cooler water, so try fishing during cooler
hours instead of high noon in the summer time, for example. Early
morning hours or evening hours might work better in your region.

E) Ask for help and advice from locals, and give it a try. Many
people, especially old timers in a region, know the ins and outs of
what works best; which lures work best, which bait, what time of
day, which areas of the region, etc.

And nope, we're still not through yet sharing info about bass
fishing - almost, but not quite yet... Yes, there are still so many
more things to know about bass fishing! So stay tuned for the
final lesson in our series and we'll be back soon with your next
bass fishing lesson, where you'll learn more about fish bites.

Plus don't forget...

... cast your line out farther and get ahead at a much faster pace
so you can you learn more! Catch that big one so it won't get away,
take snap shots and start bragging. Or get ready now for your
upcoming fishing trip or camping outing with your loved ones,
neighbors, friends, scouts or others.

The Floating Worm!

Many times over the floating worm has surfaced as a winner on the bass tournament trail. It is another one of those secret baits that doesn’t get much print. The floating worm comes in a vast array of colors. From the exotic to the bland. The bright colors are the best producers. This bait can be fished in the early to late spring. When the fish are moving up to spawn you can fish this bait on those cold front days when the fish are not moving much. It is a good locator bait when they are active.

Almost all of the popular worm makers make a floating worm. They come in two sizes. Six and eight inch, are the popular sizes. Rig this bait on a bait caster with a six foot six medium heavy rod with line sizes ranging from twelve to fourteen pound line. Put a swivel as if you were making a Carolina rig ten to eighteen inches long in front of the bait. This will help stop some of the line twist and add a little weight to the lure. Use a 3/0 rigging hook and insert it into the worm as if you were Texas rigging it.

You can put a kink in the worm to give it more action. You can fish around vegetation, timber, flat banks, and deep suspended fish. Sometimes a spinning rod is the best equipment to use for throwing the bait. I like the baitcaster as the line twist does not affect the casting ability. When fishing vegetation you can throw the bait as close to the stuff as possible or up on top of it and slid it off into the water. Give the bait a slight jerk and let if sink then give it another jerk.

When the fish strikes the bait let them have it for a minute before setting the hook. If you are working timber, throw the bait past the trees and stumps and work the bait up to structure and let it sink. Let the bait sink down then start a slow jerking motion till you come to another tree or stump. This bait can be fished all during the year.

If your fish are suspended, add a small nail to weight the bait and count it down to where you know the fish are and then start a jerking motion in the area you feel the fish are at. This bait is very productive in late spring and early fall. As I stated earlier the colors are up to the individual. The brighter they are the better you can see them and can follow them as you jerk them over the surface. This is also a good back up bait when you are using a top water and the fish blows up on the top water and misses it you can cast this bait in the area and let it sink and most of the time the fish will hit this bait. This is also true with buzz baits. If the fish misses the buzzbait then cast back into the area with the floating worm and get ready to set the hook. This is mainly a shallow water bait that is good out to seven feet.
