SPRINGFIELD, Mo. ? Bass Pro Shops Outdoor World Tips presents free, seasonal how-to advice from Larry Whiteley, host of the award-winning Outdoor World Radio show. Each weekly tip offers practical advice to improve your skills.
Tips offered for February include :
Fish Windy Banks for Bass
In early spring, windy banks are bass fishing hotspots because they hold the warmest water and baitfish. Slow trolling a spinnerbait or crankbait through baitfish hangouts can be your all-access pass to the best bass fishing on the lake.
Create a Pre-Fishing Trip Checklist
Hassle free fishing trips are possible when you have a plan. Avoid everything from leaky waders to boat trailer tire problems by making a check list of everything you need to do before you hit the water.
Prep for Turkey Season by Practicing Your Shooting While Sitting
Turkey hunters who practice their shooting from a seated position can ramp up their success rates. Put the odds in your favor by stepping off distances and finding maximum range markers before sitting so you know for sure when that gobbler is in range.
Gear You Need for Walleye Fishing
You don't need your doctorate in walleyeology to buy fishing gear. You can catch a lot of 'eyes with this no brainer rod, reel and fishing line combo.
Working a Wobbler-Style Lure
