Bassraper,
Unless your seeking a trophy bass, or in a tournament, I suggest not fishing bedding bass. Many times bass caught off a bed won't spawn. There is no set date for bass to spawn, they go by water temperature, water clarity, length of daylight hours and moon phase. Bass will spawn whever favorable conditions allow. Bass in Texas and Florida may spawn in Feb, while bass in Iowa spawn in late May. Every state and even lakes are different. On large lakes, the headwater bass may spawn, say in late April and the bass at the lower end may spawn two weeks later. It's complicated and it should be, we don't want to know too much, takes all the challenge away. Good fishing.Johnnie
