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 Permit
Approach permit quietly and cast ahead of their direction of travel; avoid sudden movements that will spook them.
- For Bluegill
Fish near structure like docks, weeds, or submerged trees where bluegill seek cover and food.
