Comments Off on Anglers Raise Awareness and Funds During Recycled Fish’s 24 Hour Fish-A-Thon

Council Bluffs, IA – How long can you fish? Find out at the 24-Hour Fish-A-Thon on September 10 – 11 and you could also help improve the waters you fish in. In its second year, anglers across the country compete to see who can raise the most money – and catch the most fish – while creating awareness for a good cause. Teams also compete for top prizes such as the fishing trip of the lifetime, a guided trip with a Professional Anglers Association (PAA) tour-level pro, or a getaway to a remote lodge. Additional prizes include tackle from Berkley and Dick’s Sporting Goods.

How Do I Know When A Bass Bites My Bait?

Comments Off on How Do I Know When A Bass Bites My Bait?

When fishing a plastic worm, do you ever miss bites? I bet you do, even if you don’t know it. I have watched people fishing with me and have seen their line move or jump and they never knew a fish was there until I told them to “SET THE HOOK!” At times the bite is so subtle you can hardly feel it.

I will never forget fishing an extremely clear lake in Wisconsin and watching bass suck in my weightless Trick worm and the line never moved and I never felt them hit. There are some things you can do to improve your detection of strikes. Do any of them work for you? Do you have any to add? Post them in the comments section to share with others.
