Now that you have your rod and reel
picked out you need some terminal tackle. I would buy #6 or#8 live
bait hooks and a bobber that attaches to your line that you can see
in the distance. I prefer the bright orange instead of red and white.
Also instead of a round bobber try to get a torpedo bobber with a
lead band on the bottom. They almost look like a short cigar. I find
you can cast out further with this type of bobber. Some people put a
spit shot on the line between the bobber and hook to keep the line
straight in the water. If you plan to use minnows hook the minnow in
the both lips. Bass tend to strike at the front of the bait instead
of the back of it. If you plan on using worms thread the worm onto
the hook.
When fishing for bass you want to fish
near structure such as weeds, grass, pilings, and docks. The reason
for this is because bass will ambush their prey. They fish primarily
by sight first then sound and smell last. So if they don't see your
bait you won't get a strike. I hope these tips help you get started
in the wonderful world or fish. Good luck fishing!
