How to get the best shot at big allusive fish!

Large mouth bass probably are the most sought after freshwater fish. At least that's what the magazines and the papers proclaim. They are the sexiest for sure! When I think about large mouth bass I think about big fish with a feeding attitude. However, like everything else when you have fish that have serious attitudes, feeding patterns are formed, which is where this tip can help you master a serious catching plan.

During clear water day's bass don't move much during bright light periods. This is one of those instincts that keep them aware that "danger comes from above." When the sun climbs clear water bass normally do two things: Move into to heavy vegetation in shallow water or drop back into deep water. These areas offer them a comfort zone! Fish here! If the opposite happens and the clouds cover the sun all day or there is a breeze that offer ripples on the surface you might just find yourself with an extended feeding period! In other words "go with what you have in the way of conditions, but use them to your advantage!
