| I was watching a TV Show with Bill Dance and he | | | | What was the lure color? |
| was talking about concentration. I thought well this is | | | | What type of lure? |
| going to be a boring show but of course, it wasn't. | | | | What position was the boat to the cover? |
| Matter of fact it made sense. | | | | Was the strike a slight bump or hard jerk? |
| Bill says Concentration not only makes you a better | | | | A light bump usually means inactive fish. |
| fishermen but also helps you forget your daily woes. | | | | If bass strikes shallow.........usually active |
| Learn something from every cast. | | | | If bass strikes mid-depth.......usually semi-active |
| When you get a strike.....analyze it. | | | | If bass strikes in deep water...usually inactive. |
| What was the cover? | | | | Why does this information help? Well, if you can |
| What was the lure speed? | | | | imitate the same conditions and elements elsewhere |
| What retrieve did you use? | | | | on the lake, then chances are you will catch fish |
| What was the water temperature? | | | | there too. It saves a lot of time and you'll catch |
| What was the depth of the strike? | | | | more fish instead of the guess where they are |
| What was the oxygen level? | | | | method. |
