If you plan on catching plenty of bass fish, you'll need to know some good
bass fishing techniques. While it looks pretty easy to the outsider, bass
fishing is a strategic thing. Just ask my dad!

He gets all dressed up like he's going to war, selects his weapons, and of
course, chooses the perfect bait. The bass fish are the enemy, and I swear he
plots their destruction! One thing he believes in is mastering the basic bass
fishing techniques before anything else.

Casting is one of the most important things to learn. According to my dad,
you shouldn't have to think about it. That way, you don't have to focus on your
casting technique when you're in the water.

The smoother and quieter your cast, the better the results will be. You don't
want to startle the bass fish, since they like quiet areas. If you can catch
them unawares with a smooth cast, you're starting off right.

He chooses his technological equipment as well. He discovers where the fish
are all hiding out when he uses a radar. It's very helpful to be able to use
these bass fishing techniques. Bass fish are good at hiding, and knowing where
the fish are is one of the keys. They like to lurk around fallen trees or rocky
areas. In these areas, there are likely to be a good bit of bass fish.

This means that you catch more. Before, I didn't know fishing could be so
involved. And we used to think we would just take a snooze in the boat. He takes
his fishing very, very seriously, though.
