Flogger for Sight Fishing Deep Water
Pipkens didn’t win any of those derbies, but several of those who did owe him a debt of gratitude. After all, without his influence, it might never have gotten this far. This tool is extremely valuable anytime you are interested in seeing more detail under the water.
The whole idea is to catch fish, quality fish, quantities of fish and the right to brag. Lets face it, bragging is an essential part of fishing. Local state and county websites like the one here in my home state is another great course of information that you can use.
Go to moonguide.com to learn more about the yearly, monthly, weekly and daily cycles and how fishing is affected and how this system can help you become a better fisherman. There is solid scientific fact and formula’s used in this system and it works. Be skeptical, but be curious too and take a little time to investigate this website. In spring the best fishing is in vegetation and around it in 8 to 12 feet of water. But in summer the bass move to deeper water of about 12 to 15 feet.
Largemouth Black Bass do have a home range territory. Studies have shown that these bass will inhabit the same places, month after month, year after year. This means that if you can find a good fishing spot, remember it and return to re-catch the same bass, if he was released previously. These studies show that years later the same bass will be found within 300 yards of the same spot he has always stayed in. A channel with some cover like an undercut or stump at a depth of 18 feet will hold a bass year round and it will never move from that spot unless caught or forcibly removed. Most bass live year round within 300 yards of their spawning grounds.
Limits on FloggingJust because you shell out the bucks for a flogger—or make one yourself out of a bucket, traffic cone, flowerpot or other apparatus—won’t make the spawning bass start jumping in your boat. As Pipkens noted, you must be physically nimble to get it right. That means getting down on your knees or belly, putting your face to the contraption, and taking your lumps. This is just a start to understanding bass behavior, but you can now say you have an idea of what a bass sees, the temperature he likes and the depths he likes and why. Continue the quest for knowledge to better understand the bass. A large flat, formed at the top of a point that has thick vegetation along the outside edge, clumpy reeds on the flats and dense weeds along the shoreline, will hold a large percentage of a lakes bass, as much as 80%.
These words of wisdom are the foreword in Buzzacott’s book. Although printed in 1903 it still is relevant today. You have to know everything there is to know about a bass in order to be the best bass fisherman you can. Without this knowledge your just another weekender out on the water flogging a lure in hopes a bass will strike it. So lets take so time to look at world through a bass’s eyes and study his anatomy to learn how that can help us be better bass anglers. There’s little likelihood that they’ll find a way to meet in the middle, but a ban on tournaments during the spring and early summer doesn’t mean a stop to all fishing except in those few states with a closed season.
