Fishing Techniques

  • 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 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.

  • For Northern pike

    Vary your retrieval speed and add pauses to entice strikes, especially in colder water.
