How The Pros Approach Bass Fishing
Let me present you with this little common sense scenario. Suppose there are two guys who are very interested in Bass fishing and decide to take up the sport. Both have very little experience in the sport and both are on a tight budget and only have $200 to spend to get started.
The first fellow which we will call Bob, spends his bass fishing budget on a very nice rod and reel, some expensive lures and a video on "How to cast, pitch and flip.”
The second fellow which we will call John, spends half his budget on a decent but much less expensive rod and reel and some cheaper lures, and spends the other half on books and literature to learn about bass, their habits and a book on "How to find Bass.” Which angler do you think spent his money more wisely? And when the time comes to go fishing, who do you think will catch the most bass, Bob or John?
If your answer is John you are absolutely CORRECT!.
My name Is Jeff Hughes http://www.thinklikeabass.com . I have been a Bass fisherman for more than 30 years, And a tournament fisherman and professional guide for a total of 22 of those years.
In my business I see many many inexperienced fishermen. These are people who love the sport and truly desire to catch lots of bass. However, unfortunately I see far too many people who make the same mistake as Bob in our little scenario . They have been programed by advertising from the fishing industry to believe that all they need to do is to buy products, learn to use them and they will be able to jump right into the game and do it just like the pros’ do it. Well I can assure you, that is not how the pros’ do it.
Pro bass fishermen are able to make a living bass fishing, not because they have all the best equipment that money can buy, or because they have great skills in flipping, pitching or casting. They are able to make a living in the sport because they can find and catch bass consistently at any time of year and any weather conditions they may be faced with.
How are the pros’ able to do this?
The pros’ are able to find and catch fish consistently
because They have spent countless hours on the water fishing, and studying the habits of bass and learning to think like them. Simply put, they know bass. They know bass personally.
Bass fishing is a game of circumstances and conditions which are constantly changing. And Bass is constantly changing with them. In order to be consistently successful an angler simply cannot depend on what worked yesterday, or even one hour ago. He must be able to read conditions and know how the bass will react to them.
I am often asked “what is the best way for me to learn to be consistently successful in bass fishing.” My response to this question is go fishing as often as you can and fish as long as you can. Make it a point to be observant, even if you do not land a single fish, you will learn something new each time you fish. Focus your attention on getting to know your query. All the fancy equipment and technique’ will come but first and foremost you must learn the habits and nature of the bass.
Wishing you good luck, and better fishing
Jeff Hughes
