There's-not a fisherman alive I stick with one area and get
intimately acquainted with it.
Pretty soon you’ll learn
where the big ones live. And
once you have learned this,
half the battle is won. You’ll
always be throwing your baits
in productive water.
Then there is the matter of
knowing when to fish.
Day in and day out, bass
j will hit better early in the
morning, between dawn and
sun-up, and again late, from
sundown until dusk. Of course,
there are exceptions to this,
just as there are exceptions to
any angling rule. But general-
ly, you’ll have your best suc-
cess during these periods.
The average fisherman, who
gets on the water around eight
in the morning and quits in
mid-afternoon, wonders why he
never takes any of these big
bass. Main reason, of course,
is that he’s fishing at the wrong
time of day. The fish simply
are not feeding when he is
fishing.
And finally, there is the
skill of knowing how to fish.
This encompasses more than
the average fisherman would
ever imagine. It includes ev-
erything from the proper ap-
proach to the correct presenta-
tion of the bait.
The lunker fisherman comes

i fish with the utmost caution.

something special, and indeed
he should be. You just don’t
take one exery day.
But there are a select few
fishermen who seem to score
more consistently than others.
There’s probably such a person
in your hometown, someone
who makes it a maddening
habit of bringing in the big
■ones. How often have you found
yourself wondering what magic
formula he uses?
I hate to disillusion you, but
:there is no magic formula, no
.shortcut to success.
This man has succeeded be-
cause he knows where to fish,
when to fish, how to fish. And
most important of all, he keeps
a bait in the water more than
the rest of us. If you go fish-
ing enough and mind your
ABC’s of bass-fishing tech-
nique, then sooner or later that
magic moment rrives. When it
does, you’ll never forget it.
Let’s break this big-bass
fishing down to the basic and
take it step by step.
First, there’s a matter of
knowing where to fish. We all
know that bass prefer some
kind of cover. Perhaps around
a stump or a submerged rock.
They like to hang out where
there is a combination of wa-
ters . . . shallow and deep. j He cuts his outboard long be-

But it isn’t this simple. There . - - _~4.~ „„
grandpa bass right off the bot-
tom. The big-bass angler ei-
ther works his bait deep, near
the bottom, or right on the lake
floor itself.
The bait comes in slowly,
the clower the better. Blue-
ribbon fishermen have found it
pays not to hurry. Far better
to work a short stretch of shore-
line thoroughly than covering a
lot of water haphazardly. You
can’t hurry an old bass.
It is literally impossible to
work a bait too slowly. Some
fishermen spend several min-
utes on a single retrieve. If
there is one common mistake
most fishermen make in bait
presentation, it is working the
lure too fast.
The skilled fisherman thor-
oughly tests his tackle before
he ever makes a cast. If he is
using a reel with a drag device,
he tests it to be sure it is set
neither too hard nor too soft.
He checks his knots to make
sure they are secure. And he
tests his line to see if it is
frayed or nicked. When he
drives the hook into a bass, he
knows what his tackle can do.
He knows exactly how much
pressure he can apply without
something giving.
Real good fishermen do all
this checking the night before
they head for the lake. Then
they are ready for action as
soon as they reach the water
bright and early the next morn-
ing.
