Largemouth Bass Fishing Equipment And Bait

Bass Fishing Equipment

I won't go into much detail on this section because it would take me forever. But the equipment that爕ou need to be successful at catching largemouth bass depends on the type of bass fishing that you?plan on doing...營f you have the funds you can purchase a bass boat in excess of $10,000 if you燿on't you can always just put on the ole worn out sneakers. I met an old fellow in Missouri爋nce, who used a little 10 foot john boat, no motor but just an oar and a cane pole tipped with a爈ive night crawler that I would put my money on, before I would spend some on a high dollar bass boat with all their expensive gear... I just want you to know being successful燿oesn't mean that you have to invest a lot of money.

Bass Fishing Boats

Get a boat that best fits your needs. There is no sense in getting a bass boat with a 100+ horsepower motor if your going to be fishing very small lakes and ponds. But also if you plan on doing the majority of your fishing on a very large lake you wouldn't want to be armed with just a爌addle or oars either. Bass boats can come with all sorts of equipment such as depth-finders, trolling motors, inboard/outboard motors, Electronic thermometers, live wells,?etc. etc...?Some big advantages of owning a bass boat is that you can carry a lot of equipment with you and爃ave it ready should you ever need it.

Bass Fishing Rods and Reels

This too can be a very big decision. There are so many different styles and types of?rods and reels on the market today that it is about impossible for me to mention them all here. So I燼m just going to stick to the basics.. A good bass rod should have a爃eavy strong butt, and?sensitive tips. You need a powerful strong rod for setting the hook and horsing the fish out of爃eavy cover. Probably most importantly though is to make sure you balance the rod with the same?type of reel... Don't buy an ultralight rod and then put a heavy duty reel on it. This would impair the燽alance and sensitivity of the rod. So once again as with the Bass boat, just try to match the rod?and reel with the type of fishing that you do mostly. For example you wouldn't want to use an爑ltralight rod and reel if you planned on doing a lot of trolling and visa versa you wouldn't want to?buy a heavy trolling rod and reel if you planned on fishing with very lightweight top water plugs爁rom shore.
