Understanding what the bass eat may be one of the most overlooked elements in bass fishing! Pete Gluszek will teach about forage such as shad, herring, crawfish, gobies, perch, sunfish, etc. Understanding the forage will help you to become more effective at selecting lures with the action, size, and color that best fits what the bass are eating. The best way to understand where to find bass is to understand what the bass is after. Forage for largemouth and smallmouth varies greatly depending on what part of the country and what lake you’re fishing. While some fisheries – like the Great Lakes – depend heavily on Goby, southern bodies of water lean more on Gizzard and Threadfin Shad. In this seminar, Pete Gluszek breaks down more than a dozen different types of bait and shares his seasonal tips on how to find and catch bass feeding on them.
