Finally, here are some techniques and pointers about casting and retrieving. This information is jammed packed in all trip lengths on our artificial lures and fake bait good bass lures to catch fish on your fishing trips:
Tip #1: A basic sense in fishing is “Retrieve fast in warm water, retrieve slowly in cold water” this holds true for largemouth bass, stripers or crappie. At the same time, be prepared to vary your retrieve in both speed and style. Fish strike for many reasons. They could be hungry, reacting to instinct, or protecting nests or beds during spawning. Change can trigger a response that increases your success rate.
Tip #2: Try to cast beyond your target area so that the artificial lure functions appropriately by the time it reaches your objective. Always key in on a target that you are casting for. Be sure to be aware of it because getting a bite or strike could give you insight into where to get more.
Tip #3: Match the color of your lure to the current fishing conditions. “Light days, light colors; dark days, dark colors.” Anglers often think the opposite is correct, but it’s not. Next time you are on the water or fishing in a local spot, test these methods.
Tip #4: Remember two keywords: Presentation and Presence. You are bringing an artificial object into a fish’s environment, trying to trick that fish into biting that lure. The more naturally and deliberately that lure moves through that environment, the better your chances of catching one.
Tip #5: Try to adapt to the season; it takes different techniques for different seasons. How to catch a bass in the Summer should be totally different from how to catch a bass in the winter. Understanding these differences and making the appropriate changes will increase your success year-round.
