Comment The Post Below...
Hello Anglers,
Bass have a tremendous appetite, but studies have shown that
they tend to have a preference for a particular forage type.
They like a long, thin prey better than they do a short, fat
one.

Find Fish Quickly
By BassHawg [www.bass-hawg.com]
Whether you are on a new lake, or the one that you call
home, the main objective is to find and catch as many fish
as possible. Every body of water has an endless supply of
different types of structure and cover in a variety of depths
and water conditions. The list includes; docks, weeds, trees,
stump fields, ledges, humps, channels, creeks, cold fronts,
droughts, floods, and hundreds of other variables that alone
can make finding fish difficult.
The most helpful piece of equipment for this is a good lake
map. I use a map before I ever put my boat in the water. A
map can show you potential hot spots. This will enable you
to narrow down a lot of water before you have to make a cast.
Looking for spots that have a combination of cover and
structure will make finding bass easier.
There are times when a lake map is not available, but that
does not mean that you can not find the structure that you
need. You can get an idea of what is below the water by
looking at what is above the water line. You can follow old
roadbeds into the water, or if you find a steep bank that
ends in the water, it will have similar features under water.
This goes the same for bank make up if it is gravel on the
shore it will probably be gravelly in the water.
Now that you have a few areas to check out lets hit the
water. The fish will tell you what to throw. If you take in
consideration the current weather, time of year, water
temperature, and fishing pressure. When you are looking for
fish use the fastest lure that you can get away with. At
times you will not be able to move a lure fast enough, but
under other conditions you will not be able to move it slow
enough.

Lets run through a few scenarios to give you an idea of what
I am attempting to tell you. Let us set the first scene.
It is pre-spawn; the weather has been steady and slightly
warming. Where do you start looking for active fish? Get
your map out and look for the spawning grounds, with access
to deep water. The map will show you flats that have a creek
channel next to them. These kinds of areas will be a good
place to start. With the good weather patterns and the
rising water temperatures, I would begin with crankbaits,
Carolina rigs, and suspending jerkbaits. Every fish that you
catch will give you small pieces of information that you can
use to catch more fish.
If the first fish came from 6 foot of water on the edge of a
break into 12 feet of water look for similar areas and try
to repeat the pattern. Work that 6-foot edge with a variety
of lures. If you connect with more fish then you have the
beginnings of a pattern. If you do not catch more fish then
try another area, or look at the last one with a little more
detail. Maybe a stump was holding the first fish. You should
be starting to get a feel for the way this works.

In addition, a cold front just passed through your area
leaving you a blue bird day. The first place that I would
look for fish is in the heaviest cover available. This can
be weed beds, flooded timber, tight to boat docks, or under
floating vegetation. Except for a chance at an early morning
topwater bite, I would concentrate on placing slower moving
smaller baits in as many places as possible. The heavy fish-
ing pressure would make me use smaller baits or find fish
that others ignore.
Many fishermen will probe the outside edges of thick bushes
or trees; few will put their lures in the center of the
worst areas. I use this to my advantage. I have lost many
fish in the centers of thick snags, but at least I had the
chance at getting them out. If I flipped just the outside
edge, I would never have had the chance to get those other
fish. The other options available in this scenario are
covering a lot of water with a spinnerbait or some other
fast moving bait.
Another option is to fish areas that no one else does. Most
people have fancy fiberglass bass rigs and do not enjoy fish-
ing shallow water that is full of stumps and culverts. If
you can get to waters that are guarded by shallow water or
heavily stump invested waters, you can get at bass that
others pass by.
As you can see a search lure can be as fast as a buzz bait
or as slow as a 1/8 oz 4 inch worm. Let the fish tell you
what to do, and make certain that you listen closely. Do not
allow your favorite spots or best memories dictate where you
fish. The conditions and season will tell you the general
locations you have to refine the presentations to match the
conditions.

FISHING JOKES CORNER
------------------------------------------------------------
Weighted down with fishing paraphernalia, the man staggered
up to the department store cash register. The total was rung
up, and, as he stood there writing the check, he was heard
to murmur, "It'd be a hell of a lot cheaper if you guys just
sold the fish!"
