Fishing Topwater in Lily Pads
In 2004, I fished much more lily pads than ever before before? Why? Well, simply because I caught fish in them. I most likely caught more than 100 fish in the lily pads this yr on your own. Two had been more than 5 pounds and one more than 6 pounds. So what did I do different this yr?
I am glad you asked……I used a lure known as the scum frog, green and white, not only that but I fished it different than ever before before. You see, I used to go slow, I imply actual slow, my way of thinking was that even though the bass is a quick swimmer, he would have a tough time catching up with the lure via the pads, if I retrieved it quick. Not only that, but, I wanted to place it in his face a lot lengthier by going slow on my retrieve.
Well, then I watched this man and he was operating it via the lily pads almost as quick as any buzz bait I have observed used. I was utilizing the same lure except slow. The final result? Well, he was obtaining strikes, I imply plenty of strikes, I was obtaining none. So, I went back more than the same region I just fished and guess what? Yep, I started obtaining strikes, but I was lacking them as the lure would get previous the fish. I thought maybe I ought to compromise, so, I slowed down my retrieve just a hair and bingo, I began catching fish. That is the way I used the scum frog for the relaxation of the fishing period. Fast, but not really as quick as a buzz bait, when they would hit and skip I would stop the bait and just twitch it a few occasions. This was one of my best fishing years in more than 40 of fishing for bass, all because of to this new retrieve. As Mikey says “Attempt it you may like it”.
Charles E. White has fished for almost 50 years for bass from California to Florida. In his lifetime, it is believed that he has caught more than 6,000 bass. His biggest bass is a 12 pound 14 ounce that hangs on his wall in his workplace.
Charles has fished with individuals who have never fished for bass before and taught them how to become effective anglers and also has fished with the Pros in Florida. If you liked this article you can find much more in our article section at: http://www.bassfishingweekly.com
