| Make longer casts and use lower pound

| |
| | knew the bass would probably be suspended

| Ask the local tackle shop, lake marinas,

| |
| | Look for coves and any place there is
|
| Look for any cover than you can see like
| |
| | less wind, that is just
|
| points, drop offs, trees, stumps, grass
| |
| | normal. I fish against the wind and let

| | I see fish with the wind and let the wind

| |

| anywhere. No trees, no stumps, no docks,

| | detect a strike. I fish it more like a
|
| you do?Well, my first thing I do is turn
| |
| | worm though then the usual method of a
|
| on my fish finder and look for
| |
| | spinnerbait. I let it drop and use the
|
| underwater structure like flats,
| |
| | tip of my rod to move it then let it fall
|
| drop-offs, points, timber, steep banks,
| |
| | again. I work it just fast enough to keep
|
| and stumps. See if you can see any points
| |
| | it from dragging the bottom. I also use
|
| above the water too. Many times what you

| | this method during a cold front. I like
|
| see above the water is also below the
