If you're bass fishing from the bank, you've probably wondered what the best bait is for this type of catch. The truth is, the easiest bait to throw will produce the best bite percentage. This is why you shouldn't have ten rods. Reduce your rod count to one or two. This will allow for more time to cast and work your bait.
Finesse swimbaits
If you're looking for a more simple bass lure, finesse swimbaits are an excellent choice. These baits require very little effort and are extremely easy to use. To fish with these lures, simply throw them out in a shallow area and retrieve them slowly along the bottom. Vary the speed of your retrieve in order to maximize your chances for success. Slow retrieves are best in 45 to 55 degree water. The bait should contact the bottom.
Man-made hump
In my 25-year career, I've introduced many clients to the delights of nighttime Bass Fishing. An offshore hump is a technique I use to attract large bass. Humps are typically more productive for nighttime bass fishing than points, as they draw bass from a wide area. In addition, I find them to be more visually appealing than points. Here's how you fish the man-made Hump.
Man-made bass attracted by hump
Fishing for bass from the bank has many advantages. When fishing for bass, you can be stealthy. If the wind is strong enough to allow trolling motors to drift close to a structure, they can be used. Once you reach the structure, cast a lure such as a bottom-bumping crawling crawdad imitation and then use your reel handle for movement of the lure to mimic the crawling action a crayfish.
Man-made hump creates man-made hump
The pre-spawn is when humps can be found in the ideal places to catch a large bass. These humps can be described as underwater islands or high points that have been elevated above the water's surface. On topo maps, look out for concentric circles that signify a depression at bottom and rise above it. Bass can use the humps as dinner plates, sitting on one side of the down-current side and ambush their prey as it washes over it. It makes for a more efficient experience for bass.
The best time of year to fish at the bank
The best season to fish for bass on the bank is spring and autumn, when bass migrate to shallower water near the shore. Bank fishing allows anglers not to have to line up boats and keep the fish away. You can also walk along beaches to search out bait fish in the back of canals. If you know where to look, you can catch many bass during these seasons.
Favorite lures to catch bass
Consider the following scenarios when selecting a lure to catch bass at the bank. For example, a weedless paddle tail soft plastic lure, like the Fiiish Minnow, is appropriate for rough ground and can be fished in multiple sizes. A hard metal lure is also appropriate for windy days, and a shallow diving plug works well when you encounter snags.

How do I clean my fishing equipment?
There are many types of cleaning techniques that you can use to clean your fishing gear. Some are simple, while others require more advanced techniques. Use soap and water is the most popular method. After washing the item, rinse it thoroughly. If you don't rinse it well enough, there's a chance that some dirt remains inside, which could cause bacteria growth. Untreated, this can cause bad smells and worse infections. A good way to prevent this is to dry the items completely before storing them. Remember to not touch the item's surface while cleaning. You risk spreading germs to objects if you touch them.
In addition to using soap and water, there are many things that you can do to improve the quality of your fishing gear. For example, depending on your type of gear, you might want to use special detergents or solvents. Some things should not be used, though, as they may cause damage to your goods. One of these things is bleach. Bleach is known to dissolve plastic and metal, so you shouldn't ever use it to clean your fishing gear. Warm water and a dishwashing detergent are better choices. You should only use dishwashing liquids made specifically for cleaning fish. Dishwashing detergents are formulated with enzymes and other chemicals to help dissolve organic materials like blood, slime, scales, and slime. They also contain surfactants which remove dirt from surfaces. You should still consider using a stain-removal product if you are worried about stain removal. Most stains are caused by oil and fats that have remained on the gear's surface. Applying stain removal products directly to areas where the oil and fat are located will remove the stain while not damaging the underlying materials.
You'll find many options in your local home improvement shop if you are looking for cleaner solutions for your fishing gear. Most stores carry several kinds of cleaners designed for different purposes. Some of them are meant to deal with small amounts of grease, while others are intended to handle larger quantities. You can choose one that suits your needs best.
