Beginner Bass Fisher?

I live in central to east texas. I have not bass fished in over 12 years because of my lack of time due to military service.

I went to the store to grab some lures, and its extremely overwhelming to see thousands of lures, and not know which one, and what accessories to buy.

I am confused as to how to set up my rod for Bass in these different areas:

1. fishing from shore, Clear day, little to know wind, medium to dark water, with weeds and brush less then a foot underwater,

2. fishing from shore, darker day, medium to high wind, medium to dark water, with weeds and brush less than a foot underwater

Thanks for ya’lls help

I’m no expert but here are some things that better fishermen than I have always said:

Early mornings, after rains, and late evenings usually are good times to fish. Fish tend to be lazy (like us), they look out for their own comfort a lot (like to rest in the shade), and eat (strike) only when they really need to or when they feel their territory is being invaded. They usually go for easy meals.
So don’t pull your bait in too quickly.
Fishing from shore, (for both of your examples) I would use a long pole and plenty of line. If your body of water has a dock (for boats) that is a good shady area for fish to rest underneath. Try to cast as far into the deeper water as you can and then pull your bait back in a way that simulates a wounded or injured minnow in its presentation. Use something shiny as bait as it is more easier seen by the fish.
Something with natural “movement” also helps entice the fish into striking it. Other colors, types would need to be delivered more close to the fish for them to be noticed, or wouldn’t provoke a strike as they didn’t believe the lure to be an actual meal. I hope it helps. Good Luck!

Patagonia Men's Wind Shield Jacket


Patagonia Men’s Wind Shield Jacket


$149


The wind races in from the Patagonian icecap with such unimaginable velocity that even a simple trail run can seem daunting. But the magic of the place lures you in, so go prepared. The Men’s Wind Shield Jacket’s stretchy, revised polyester fabric is significantly lighter, with superb compressibility and softness, and is laminated to a polyurethane film for full windproofness. A nonlaminated breathable polyester/spandex brushed fleece covers the underarm panels and cuffs (which have fold-away thumb loops), and a Deluge DWR (durable water repellent) finish sheds light precipitation. Jacket details include a brushed fleece collar for next-to-the-skin comfort, full wind flap and zipper garage, slightly dropped tail, two zippered handwarmer pockets and a rear center-back pocket with a reflective zipper and interior cord pass-through. Reflective logos on the left chest and center back.

Anglers from every walk, region, and genre in life seek to find the magic in wrangling largemouth bass. However, there is the mystery of it all that creates the challenge for most fishermen.  Even though some techniques are more successful than others, there are many things that need to be accounted for. Your success in catching the extreme largemouth bass you have been dreaming of, all depends on timing, skill, experience, conditions, and observation. It is possible to unlock the many secrets of catching that colossal giant largemouth you have longed for since you were able to cast that line, however first you must recognize all the factors that play a role in nailing “The big one.”  

Factors that may dictate the odds of an extreme largemouth bass catch:

o    Water conditions and clarity

o    Climate such as rain, snow, weather fronts, and sunshine

o    Seasons

o    Location of fishing excursion

o    Line being used

o    Time of day fishing

o    Rod, reel, bait, and lures

o    Fishing grounds pond, quarry, lake

Taking in all these significant  dynamics is imperative, especially when wanting to land that extreme largemouth bass. Knowing how to recognize and utilizing observations to choose your timing, fishing spot, equipment, lures and baits, and fishing depth are all important in heightening your odds at catching the magnificent “wall-hanger” that has dwelled without mastery for years. Why are these things important? Because, the more you know the better angler you will become.

Water Clarity

When the water clarity is excellent the largemouth bass tend to know exactly what they are biting on. This is the time that they are very aware of their surroundings and can pick and choose what they bite.  Make sure that the bait you use matches the hatch of the baits (color, size, and shape) they are hitting in the location, water, and season that are pertinent. In mucky water use surface lures, crank baits that rattle, and  synthetic worms.

Climate and Weather Fronts

Weather fronts and climate play a significant part in the opportunities to catch that extreme largemouth bass. Understanding where the fish tend to dwell and when they are more prone to eat is vital.  Slight wind, cloud cover, and rain all are positive climate conditions for the largemouth to be hitting. They tend to be less active in torrential down pours, before weather fronts, and with strong wind conditions.

Fishing Gear

This is a complex part of largemouth bass angling. It takes practice, experience, and skill to get this part down to a science.  However, most fishermen learn this essential trait by trial and error.  It definitely boils down to the line, lures, rod, and reel you use in whether you land that killer largemouth bass.  It also depends on the conditions, fishing grounds, water clarity, climate, and  time of day you are fishing.

It is similar to golfing in the retrospect that in golf the proper club has to be utilized to make an accurate shot. Fishing for largemouth is the same. An individual has to weigh all the factors and choose the right gear to get optimum results. It can be very intricate and complex, this is why this aspect of catching a largemouth bass successfully will be covered in a future article in explicit detail.

Largemouth bass fishing is certainly an exciting endeavor. Having the will is all it may take to catch that extreme fish you have been desiring. However, it does help to conduct some research and educate yourself on all there is to know about landing that largemouth. The more effort you put out to gain all there is to learn presently about triumphing the largemouth bass, the better your fishing expertise will develop and enable you to catch one.
