A few basic
bass fishing tips for fishing grass and other types of vegetation
This is a
basic bass fishing tip for fishing around grass, moss, Lily pads and other types of vegetation in shallower waters. This may be pretty basic for your more advanced anglers but they may learn something as well.
Remember the best places to find bass especially on hot days is where it is cooler and on hot days it is cooler in the vegetation areas of the lake, river or pond that you are fishing. Especially if there is no cover like old logs or other obstructions or some overhanging brush or trees that create shade. (All of them areas are good to find bass especially on hot days.)
Fishing Grassy and Vegetation areas
Basic things you should consider when fishing through or around vegetation. One is to use a weed less type lure like a spinner bait or a weed less rubber worm, which is my particular favorite. Because on hot days the fish will be in these vegetation areas and you need to be able to fish them areas without getting snagged.
One problem with using the weed less rubber worms and other creatures is it is a little harder to set the hook so what I we do is slow down retrieve when we know we have a fish bite this ensures that the fish fully takes the bait then we use the reel in technique for setting the hook rather than pulling the rod type set.
Generally, it is a good idea to fish the outside edges of the grass or vegetation because that’s normally where the bass would congregate even on cooler days because they’re looking for food and hoping astray shad or other type of wounded fish or frog will get away from the bank or shelter and they can get an easy meal. In addition, the bass like to hide under the moss and lily pads for cover this is especially on the warmer days.
On the sunny days and clearer water we like to use a flashier type rubber worm this is where the spinner baits come in to play to a degree because they have the flashy look. But as far as the rubber worms if it has a sparkle the bass are attracted to this type of look and you get a reaction type bite.
On cooler days you can still fish the edges of the grass or vegetation and use a weed less lure but you would slow down your retrieve and experiment with darker colors this is best done on overcast days and in murky water then you would want to have something that makes some sound as it is harder for the fish to see because the water being darker.
