Fishing Techniques
- For Rock bass
Rock bass often hold near structure; target rocky areas, docks, and submerged timber by casting close to these locations and varying your retrieve.
- For Smallmouth bass
Focus your fishing efforts around rocky structures, ledges, and areas with current, as smallmouth bass prefer these habitats.
- For Yellow perch
When perch are finicky, downsize your bait or lure and use lighter line to increase your chances of getting a bite. Focus on areas near weed beds or drop-offs as they often hold schools of perch.
