How to Fish a Creek for Bass & Gamefish Part 2: Jigs & Tubes
I'm still getting ready for spring. Been sharpening hooks all winter. Feeling sorry for myself... not productive... but soon... soon we shall all emerge from our icy prisons and venture forth, into the wilderness!
Creek fishing bass & other gamefish in Illinois sounds like a good way to kick things off, and in these two videos, I'll show you one of the more productive ways that I like to break down a creek - whether I have fished it 100 times, or none.
The baits can be swapped out - and at times, they MUST be swapped out - but the principles shown in these two videos remain unchanged.
Work fast.
Find fish-holding areas.
Move on after making a mental note.
Come back and "fish fish", slowly and precisely.
... getcha sum...
