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 Eyetail bowfin

  Bowfin are often ambush predators, so target areas with dense vegetation, fallen logs, or other structures that provide cover; fish slowly and methodically, giving the bowfin time to react to your bait.

• For Bluegill

  Fish near structure like docks, weeds, or submerged trees where bluegill seek cover and food.
