| Listen
to your instincts ...by Tim
Carini |
| Too
often, anglers, myself included, have a game plan and fail to
adjust when conditions change or wait too long before adjusting.
Listen to your instincts and follow them as soon as possible.
It can make the difference between a poor day and a quick day |
| Fishing
A Wood Pile ...by Dan
Galusha |
| Always
fish a wood pile on the outside area first. The most activefish
will hang to the outside, and so use spinnerbaits or crankbaitsfirst.
Then fish it with soft plastics or jig combos, using aflipping/pitching
technique, and work towards the middle and shoreside areas.
In this way more fish can be caught on one area,without catching
the middle, less active fish first, and risk spookingthe others |
| Downsize
In Tough Conditions ...by Dan
Galusha |
| If
the fishing is tough, and a few nonproductive bites have come
onsome larger lures, then downsize. For example, if there are
a fewstrikes on a 3’ or 4 1/2”, but nothing in the
boat, try going to a 2”or 2 1/2”. The same holds
for other lures |
| Fishing
A Stump ...by Dan
Galusha |
| When
fishing a stump don’t forget the root systems, which can
runfor several feet in all directions. Many times, especially
on the edgeof some deeper water, these will hold more fish than
the main partof the stump |
| Tube
Baits ...by Jeff
Chudzinski |
| All
anglers when they go fishing should always have a tube bait
tied on at least one rod in the boat. This bait is so good,
you should never go on the water without fishing a tube some
time during the day. I prefer a ISG tube, it has scent and salt
built right into the tube. It appeals to all of the bass' senses.
I believe that on those tough days, you should be fishing a
tube most of the day. The tube bait can catch fish under all
conditions, especially on those really tough days |
