Top To Bottom Spring Fishing Tips To Catch You More Bass

During the spring season, bass are highly active and feeding aggressively at various depths, making them susceptible to different types of lures as the water temperature rises. While moving lures such as crankbaits and spinnerbaits are generally effective, there are times when bass prefer slower-moving lures. This is especially true when the water temperature lingers below 60 degrees or during cold-front situations later in the spring. By varying your lure selection and presentation, you can improve your chances of hooking more bass and enjoying a successful spring fishing season.
