A fishing rod is an accessory which is quite affordable, so you can start out looking for one. With it, you can start searching for a good place where you can start fishing.
Largemouth bass is the dream catch of every fisher, whether beginner or experienced. This type of fish inhabits around 80% of the rivers and lakes, anything that can be called freshwater. Therefore, it is only a matter of time and some skills until you can catch a bass. For a start, you could ask whether there is a fishing club in your area, where you can join. You can learn the basics there and spend quite some good time with your fellows.
What you need to know about the bass fish is that besides baitfish, they also go for frogs and crawfish. This type of fish is generally not selective when it comes to food, so a very wide array of baits can be used. The more the existent vegetation around the water, the more likely it is that you will find a largemouth bass inhabiting the place. Although it might get a little uncomfortable to rock on a boat among all those algae, but your chances for the bass falling for your bait are greater.
Dense water vegetation serves as a hiding place for the bass fish, and also as a safety place. Actually, the more weedy the surface of the water, and the more types of algae you can see swaying on the water, you should immediately know that that will be your place to look for the largemouth. Regarding the best season of the day when you can fish for a bass, you should know that it is early morning. When the sun is already up in the sky, the bass is retreating from the higher surface of the water towards the bottom. Also, on rainy days there is a scarce chance that you will be able to catch any type of bass fish.
This fish is also regarded as a mischievous little creature. You can ask even the more experienced fisher, and he will tell you that the largemouth is continuously hiding under floating tree branches, lush water vegetation or any other similar hiding places. You need to be tactical, and start searching for it like you would do for a hidden treasure. Yet another important aspect is that you need not go in search for it in very deep waters. Bass fish simply love shallow water, which means that your job will also be much easier. Fishing season has arrived, so take your boat and fishing rod and set out for the great mind relaxing adventure!
