Great Tips on fishing cover for Bass
In this Video I try to show you the kind of spots I look for to find lot of bass almost all the time. I have some spots that are on points with rocks, logs, docks, pilings, and hundreds acres of lily pad with in 20 yards. Bass hang out in pad fields and come out and position on near by cover and structure. Early morning is a great time to fish cover and structure near other cover like pads. Cover on cover with structure is a very big key in catching big bass and good numbers of bass at that! Try start looking at points and you may find a few points that have other things on it like brush, logs dock….
Thanks for all the positive comments! I’m doing this for the ones that enjoy learning about bass just like me!

I love small mouth …
I love small mouth and large mouth bass. If I had to pick I would take the small mouth because of the numbers you can get in a day. I have landed over 200 smallies in one day and some good 4 pounds too. But I love how big the large mouth get and the skill it takes to catch the big ones. In Life I do not have to pick but for this post I will. Thanks for the good question!

shacky head setup …
shacky head setup is very good for when the bass are sluggish or not biting well. If the bass are acctive and you are catching lots, It may be a good line to switch to a spinner bait or crank bait. If they do not produce as well than switch back. But you may find you start catching bigger fish. You can also go bigger with your plastic baits.

You need to think …
You need to think how your bait works is different cover. in open water I like a wacky rigged senko in thicker cover I like a bulkier bait like a brush hog. Skipping docks texas rigged senko. In brush I like a tube jig for skipping in to holes in the brush. Think of your lure as a tool and what tool would work best for the cover you are fishing. A wacky rigged senko in brush???? Not the best choice.
Good questions!
Thanks
