How-To

It’s all in the jig

When I think of smallmouth bass lures, I always start with the jig. It's all there, really. Everything you need to catch a brown bass can be found in that hunk of lead, strands of hair, rubber or silicone and a hook.

Are you smarter than a bass?

We all are at least until we outsmart ourselves in our effort to catch them. That's when bass seem smartest of all.

How-To

Tubes Vs. Grubs

Jon Bondy was fishing tubes with a couple of clients for postspawn smallmouth in relatively shallow water, but one of his customers wasn't a very good angler and couldn't get the hang of it.
