Stay Safe on the Ice

Ice fishing can be a fun and rewarding activity, but it's important to prioritize safety at all times. Before heading out onto the ice, it's crucial to check the thickness and stability of the ice. In general, ice should be at least 4 inches thick to support the weight of a person, but this can vary depending on the conditions and the type of water.

Bass Metabolism

Understanding Bass metabolism can tell us a lot when it comes to targeting both largemouth and smallmouth bass.  Looking back on my first days of Bass fishing, I can remember how simple my thought process was... choose a lake, bring my favorite rod, favorite lure, and try to catch fish. I never considered; time of year, water temperature, weather changes, oxygen levels, water clarity, water depth, pressure changes, location of baitfish, and all the other variables that play an important role in Bass fishing.
