Fishing Techniques
- For Smallmouth bass
Focus your fishing efforts around rocky structures, ledges, and areas with current, as smallmouth bass prefer these habitats.
- For Redbreast sunfish
Use light tackle and small hooks, as redbreast sunfish have relatively small mouths; target areas near structure like fallen trees, rocks, and aquatic vegetation.
- 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.
