Look at maps on a fish finder to see the contours and deeps along with the structure and cover. Bass love cover (rocks, weedbeds, shipwrecks, etc) so it is very important to know where these are on your GPS. If GPS is not available, paper maps can still give you the contours and lay of the lake. The next approach is to talk to the locals, like at tackle shops, for tips on what fish have been biting on and what methods have been most effective recently. | |
