Fishing Techniques

• For Spot croaker

  When bottom fishing for Spot, use a Carolina rig or a double-hook bottom rig with just enough weight to hold bottom and keep your bait presentation natural. Fish near structure or in channels with good tidal flow.

• For Largemouth bass

  Vary your retrieve speed and lure presentation until you find what the bass are keying on, as their preferences can change daily based on weather and water conditions.

• For Atlantic croaker

  Fish near the bottom with a Carolina rig or a simple bottom rig, croaker feed primarily on or near the seabed. Use small hooks and light tackle to detect their subtle bites.
