Bass Fishing

I thought I would share a few BASS fishing tips with you all.

• Use the lightest tackle the conditions and location will allow.
• Use simple rigs.
• Fish in the areas that may hold Bass. Look for gullies, tidal currents, backwash, changes in the sea bed.
• Fish the water. Don’t just cast to the same spot, work the water, cast at a distance and work back, really hunt them out.
• You can Plug, float fish, bottom fish and fly fish for Bass.
• Fish the same mark in different conditions. Note the conditions and your success or lack of. Use this Bass Diary to refer to and create a picture of when the fish are there.
• Bass are a predator and they generally are where the food is. Look at the beach for food sources, fresh water, outlets and anything that my cause prey to group.
• At night try and fish in the dark. If you need light use a red filter on the end of the tourch.
• Make sure any rigs, lures and plugs are tied with good, strong knots. Ensure that you main line is not damaged in anyway. It’s a sad sight to loose a good Bass because of line breakages.
• Above all else think out side the “box”, hunt the fish and try ideas, they might just work!!
