Split Shotting for Bass
I didn’t catch many bass in these early days, but I did keep the split-shot rig in my arsenal. Once I developed the requisite skills and confidence, I began to catch a lot split shotting for bass.
Going Shallow When Everyone is Fishing Deep
I can be found bass fishing in shallow when everyone is fishing deep. I’d almost rather stay home than go out knowing I’ll probably be fishing deeper than 10′ all day long. It’s just how I feel and frankly, have always felt. Now, I have had my rear handed to me over the years because I refused to go deep when I should have. However, even during those tournaments, I can think back and find the mistakes which cost me.
