Tuning a crank bait

Not all fishing lures run correctly out of the box, and sometimes you want them to run a crooked path.I suggests some tweaks to change your crankbait retrieves. If a lure is not running perfectly straight, bend the eye hook toward the direction you want the lure to travel. Repeat until the lure runs straight. If the lure doesn't wobble correctly, change its split ring or tie it on with a loop knot. There are times you may want a lure to swim to the side. Bend the hook eye to the left, then cast the lure along the right side of a dock. As you retrieve the lure, it will swim part way under the dock. Bend the eye hook on a different lure the opposite direction, and use it on the other side the dock.

Largemouth bass

Largemouth bass will spawn when the water temperature is in the 65 and 70 degrees area. After the spawn the bass will start moving off the spawning beds and move to deeper water. Bass are hungry and will start to feed. You can look for their spawning beds before you go fishing making sure you wear polarized sunglasses. The bass beds will be hollowed out holes in the swallow water.

If you are fishing from a boat make sure to move quietly through the area you are going to fish. Shallow water warms up quicker than deep water and the bass will start looking for bait fish to feed on. Shallow water with lots of dead trees and logs warms up faster look for large rocks where the bass will ambush bait fish from.
