Lake Comedero offers top bass fishing but also beautiful scenery, and it is actually considered the most beautiful trophy bass fishing lake in the whole country. In this lake you'll find an incredible number of black bass known to be big, aggressive and mean, which can be attributed to the vast population of tilapia.

fishing for largemouth bass

For fly fishing for bass can provide some of the most exciting fishing in the country. The largemouth bass is probably the most popular game fish in America. The popularity of fishing for bass is partly because no other freshwater fish has a wider distribution. Largemouth bass can be found from southern Canada to South America. Smallmouth bass are also excellent for fly fishing, but they prefer slightly cooler waters and are not as ever present as the largemouth variety.

Plastic Bait There's no getting away from plastics. Where fishing equipment once was fashioned out of wood and other natural materials, molded plastics of every description have found their way into ponds, lakes, and streams. Multicolored, squiggly, wiggly things of every description are being used widely by anglers of every experience level. Some plastic lures are even coated with scented fish attractants-a kind of fishy perfume, if you will-that, combined with all kinds of noise-making bobbles, make for a lure that screams to be eaten! Plastic lures also come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colors. So, besides standard plastic worms, you might want to try experimenting with plastic[..]

walleye fishing

Walleyes can be a difficult fish to catch. They are finicky eaters, and they will shy away from your bait if they can sense any sort of unnatural tension or resistance on your fishing line. Fishing for them takes patience and a foolproof walleye fishing lure rig. Slip-sinkers are a great way to set up your line because they keep your bait deep in the water, where these fish are usually found. Your line moves easily through the eye of the sinker, so if you get a bite, the fish will not feel resistance. Once you detect a strike, you can allow yourself ample time before setting the hook. Eggs, worms, bullets, and open-eyelets are all examples of slip-sinkers. Eggs, bullets, and worms are[..]

Walleye fishing in South Dakota means one thing. Excitement! With many different lakes to choose from, you'll find Lake Oahe ranks high as one of the best places to go for chasing Old Marble Eyes.

Having never been on the lake and simply looking over the Hot Spots Map, we were able to boat 73 walleyes that first day! With our big walleye of the day being a 25 incher.

Winter trout or steelhead fishing in North America should be a carefully crafted endeavor. This is the time when the fish are starting to migrate upstream for their yearly spawning ritual. If you miss this run, you have to wait for the next nine months to get your chance to land a 7-pound beauty again. The one thing about steelhead migrations in North America is that these are almost never set by the conventional calendar. Very often, migration run starts two weeks before or after last year's schedule. So for the winter steelhead fishing enthusiast, it really pays to be prepared and ready to go during the months of March, April and May. The best places to fish for winter steelhead trout[..]

Of all of the manners in which we can go fishing, to me none is more enjoyable than river fishing while wading. When I'm wading in a river fishing for trout or other river dwelling fish it's almost as if I feel like I'm in the presence of God.

As a matter of fact, over the years I've figured out that this feeling is because in these situations I am in the presence of God. Obviously, these types of situations cannot be experienced (in many times of the year) without the help of fishing waders. In this article I'm going to outline the two best styles of waders available for the serious fisherman.[..]

Striped bass, or stripers as they are often known, are well known for their speed, agility and fighting ability that has caused many an angler problems.
