Delw Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 Interesting read. mainly you are hooking the fishermen not the fish with the fancy baits.Most bass will bite anything put in front of them, there are a few key factors and they are pretty simple. size (always ) color (some colors) sometimes shape Delw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tm Customs Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 I dont really belive bass will bite anything myself. I belive or like to that colors are a factor (in clear water which I mostly fish), softness, scent, action ect. If it were ture about bass eating anything I don't think people would be making there own baits trying to find that perfect one. Take swimbaits for example do you think a bass is going to eat a big fat log of plastic with no action or Trick Trout's beautiful 5 pice trout? You know the anser. In the end I belive the fish catching factor comes down to be a combination of the right bait and the skilled fishermen, the right bait along with someone who knows how to use it has always proven to be deadly for me.

SeminoleFan Posted July 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 I honestly believe that fishing comes down to confidence more than anything. Bass fishing to me is persuading a predator fish to strike at an artificial lure that the fish believes is alive and real, whether it is a worm, crank, jig, etc. And yes, with the right action, bass can be caught on just about anything.
