Whats the big deal about Largemouth Bass? Can you eat them and they taste good?
I know I sound like a retard asking that but most of my life has been centered around saltwater fishing and when I used to go freshwater fishing, all I’d try to catch was black crappies.
So one day I got into a conversation about why largemouth bass are the biggest gamefish out there and I couldn’t figure it out. I know they can get big, but not as big as some other freshwater fish like catfish, gator gar, and pike. And I know for a fact it’s not easy catching them as it is fish like crappies and perch.
Like I said, I’ve never went bass fishing, because I live on the coast and my life is centered around saltwater fishing. So there’s no reason to have any mean answers.
yes they are good to eat.and you have to use differant technics to catch them.it is a chanenge to know what the want for that day.color water, sky,structure and etc.you just dont put a worm on and sit.that is boring.bass fishing is fun.
What is the most versatile LURE?
pheaseant tail, I know I am kind of copying you, lol, but I would like to hear from a “spin-fishers” point of view!
I think the most versatile lure is the Rooster Tail or other in-line spinner. In freshwater, you can catch Bass, Crappie, Bluegill, Sunfish, Walleye, Pike, Perch, Trout, just about any thing that swims will hit these things. And if fished in Saltwater (if there is a saltwater proof form of the RT) I’m sure you would catch a lot of fish in it. The jig-head & grub is a BIG honorable mention as it will catch just about any kind of fish too.
Opinions?
Micheal : Tubes should have been another honorable mention. Just about 3-weeks ago I caught a 13″ Crappie on a red & white tube rigged on a jig head. Since then I have bought multiple packs of different color tubes and can’t wait to hit the Crappie/Bluegill up with them. Other than that big Crappie I have caught some big ole Sunfish & Bluegill with them.
I’m going with your second choice as #1, Bc. A Jig and curly-tailed Grub is the “booyah” lure in ALL waters.
I know for a fact that a Jig/Grub works for everything in Saltwater, (even Offshore), and for almost every species in Freshwater, (minus Catfish, maybe some Trout species, Etc).
Rooster Tails just don’t “cross-over” into Saltwater as easily as the Jig/Grub. (You’ll never see a Grouper fisherman using an In-line Spinner Offshore! However, a Jig/Grub is a common lure for Grouper, Cobia, Snapper, Etc.)
But, you def named the two most versatile BC.
I’ll go Jig/curly-tailed Grub as #1 and an In-line Spinner as #2.
