Seasonal Breakdown
• Spring (August to October): This is the pre-spawn and spawning period. Bass move into shallow water around September as temperatures rise, making it an exciting and productive time for sight fishing.
• Summer (December to February): Fishing is best during the early morning and late evening windows. Midday heat pushes bass into deeper structures where slower presentations are required.
• Autumn (March to May): Widely considered one of the most consistent and rewarding periods. Bass feed heavily in mid-depth structures to build winter reserves.
• Winter (June to August): Fishing is slower and more challenging. Bass retreat to deep water and require slow, deliberate presentations with smaller lures.
