Hot Water Bass Tactics

Denny Brauer of Missouri is one of the most-successful bass anglers in the country, having won the Bassmaster Classic and also many more tournaments. Brauer is in the top-five loan victors for BASS.

When Denny Brauer was asked ways to discover and also catch bass under hot-weather conditions, when temperature levels get to over 100-degrees Fahrenheit in the South, with a warmth index of 110 to 115 levels, he responded, "Hot weather is not simply a southerly sensation. Missouri and much of the Midwest also are experiencing 100-degree-plus temperature levels. We've had 100-degree-plus temperature levels with concerning a 115-heat index for over 8 days sometimes, in my area of the country in the summer season. Under that type of extreme warmth, very-few anglers intend to head out on the water to fish, due to the fact that catching bass in 90-degree water is tough.

"But fishermen won't give-up angling; they'll simply change the hrs when they fish. The majority of bass anglers today are angling at night. The most effective lures for nighttime angling in heat are rewriter lures, latest thing Thumper Worm and buzzbaits in darker shades. You'll obtain more attacks as well as capture even more bass fishing in the evening in this very-hot weather. If the body of water you're angling has a thermocline in it, look for areas where the thermocline comes into contact with an essential piece of structure, like a point, a walk or an undersea treetop. These structures can be located at 20- to 30-feet deep. During the night, the bass move up to more-shallow water to feed, so capturing them is simple. In the daytime, bass concentrate under watercraft docks where they locate color from the warmth and also a lot of bluegills, one of the bass's favored lures right now of the year. I also want to fish watercraft anchors in heat, given that they have some kind of brush underneath them.

"To find and also capture bass at this time of the year, try to find locations on the body of water that you fish that can breathe (get increases of oxygenated water), such as creeks running into a primary lake, eddy currents, drain-offs where water drains pipes into a lake or windy factors. Fish those areas instead of removing right into pockets or coves that don't have any kind of removing water. Bass want to fit, just like you do. So, color and cool-water overflows are very important to them. Seek color, higher-oxygen content as well as cooler water.

"I won the 1998 Bassmaster Standard at High Rock Lake in North Carolina angling in the center of the day in 2-foot-deep water. There was more oxygen in that 2 feet of water compared to in any-other parts of the lake. The lure was holding in that shallow water, and the bass were concentrating there, preying on the bait. The majority of bass fishermen forget boat waves. I won that tournament on the main part of the lake, where there was a lot of watercraft action as well as a great deal of waves striking the bank. We understand that wind blowing right into a factor oxygenates the water, thereby causing the bass to bite. Yet we fail to remember boats make a wave activity that collapses versus the financial institution, oxygenates the water as well as creates a feeding craze on the shad that makes the bass bite. So, waves from water skiers and also various other watercrafts oxygenate the water, creating bass to feed in shallow water, also in the center of the day."

These techniques are simply a sample of just what you'll discover in the brand-new Kindle book, "How to Bass Fish like a Pro" by John E. Phillips. You could most likely visit amazon and type-in the name, "How you can Bass Fish like a Pro" to locate it.
