features.
Perhaps, the most robust success of Bass Fishing was in the
1950s. The popularity of the game during this period is the
springboard to the development of modern fishing equipments from
bass boats, rods, lines, lures and various fishing gears.
Electronic gears were also incorporated among the host of
equipments bass fishers used at that time. Reels of different
types, which function in hauling and hoisting, were also
created.
The contribution of bass fishing industry to the US economy
records $50 to $70 Billion and the number continues to grow.
Statistics show that the audience base of this sport is
increasing and that more and more people are getting interested
in it compared to tennis and golf.
