Hello future "Bass Masters". I have a question for you.

Have you ever been fishing and it seems like you can not buy a bite?

It happens more often than you would think. Some days the fish just will not cooperate at all.

These days do not have to be a total loss.You can use every day as a learning experience.

The first thing you need to do is start a fishing log where you can log everything you need to remember about the fishing trip so you can use these references for future trips.

Start out by logging the weather conditions such as temperature, wind speed and direction, was it a cloudy or a clear day?

Log the water conditions such as was the water clear, stained or muddy. What lures worked the best for you(log the size and color).

Log where you caught fish and what kind of structure they were caught from such as rocks,wood or creek channel.

If you caught fish off a drop or rock pile draw a small map with some identification so you can remember how to return to the location.

If you own a G.P.S you can enter the location and save it for future reference.

Just remember to log everything that you might think is significant. You will find that the information you have learned can be used on other lakes or water ways that you visit.

We hope you have found this information helpful.

Good luck and good fishing...
