Which Lure Colors Work Best In Spring?

Craws? Shad? Chartreuse? White? Red? Ever wonder what colors you should be fishing with? Here is what you need to know before Spring is in full swing!

Spring color selection is EASY. The best approach is to keep it simple and focus on key color patterns that work consistently across a variety of conditions. Don't get caught up in the little intricacies of color this early in the season. Focus on categories rather than specifics and you'll find more success.

Where Do Bass Go In Early Spring?

Have your bass vanished? Have your favorite Winter spots gone cold? Here's why! The bass are on the move and they aren't wasting any time doing it! Every year the bass start their Spring migration in late Winter and for those anglers that haven't learned to follow them, it can be a very frustrating time. 

The key to predicting the bass' movement is to understand why they are moving in the first place. The ultimate goal of their movements is to spawn as soon as water and environmental conditions allow. The key is locating the key stops along their journey. 

If you're trying to locate fish, electronics can make all the difference. Here is what we are using... Humminbird Solix 15: http://bit.ly/2pAkXr2
