Hey what is the most important factor in growing big bass?

“Genetics don’t matter unless all other things are optimized because it takes forage, the environment, water quality, temperature, time of year, all those things to showcase genetics. So that is actually probably the last priority you have. You would start with either optimizing forage or reducing competition.

Those kind of go hand in hand. So we need to harvest more bass. We need to provide them more food. We need to make sure that water quality, specifically the oxygen demand of the biomass of fish and everything that’s decomposing, is optimized. They need a good temperature. They need habitat.

They need habitat to ambush food and escape current, recover from fishing, you know, fish catching, things like that.

You have to have all of those things. Whenever you provide a fish, all of those things, then genetics can be showcased.”

Why is habitat the single most important thing for fisheries to have so fish can thrive?

Catch the full episode of Serious Angler’s Reel Biology with Mike Homer of the talking about exactly this on your favorite podcast app or on the Serious Angler YouTube channel.

“Habitat provides the actual fish, the requirements, everything, all the requirements, the things that they need to survive. And that may be cover, it’s water, it’s ample sunlight, it’s food, it’s mates. You know, the purpose of anything living is to reproduce, provide their offspring and die. And Habitat allows these populations to do that.”

We are all taught to start fast when breaking down water throwing moving baits and cover water fast and let the fish tell you what they want next, but takes the opposite approach and it seems to have a great success rate. Listen to this point and more on your favorite podcast app or on the Serious Angler YouTube channel.

“I slow down, like I start practice probably fishing a little bit slower than most people and really just try and get confidence like in a drop shot or in an eco rig or whatever, you know, finesse application I think might work well at the body of water that we’re at. And if it’s not finesse, you know, maybe it’s just some type of plastic, even if it’s within or whatever, because that’s just, that’s where I, that’s my strong, that’s my strongest suit is slowing down and fishing soft plastics. But once I get that, if I can get something going with that, then I can start expanding, looking for the other patterns and really start mixing stuff in.
And that’s when I have the best tournaments. That’s when I feel the most comfortable.”

Sometimes the textbook of fishing is the greatest guideline to help us catch a bass or get a baseline for a fishery…other times you need to throw that textbook in the trash and trust your gut instinct - here’s an example of doing that with . Full episode of Serious Angler on your favorite podcast app or on the Serious Angler YouTube channel.

“Has there ever been a time where, I guess, what’s a bite that you’ve been on that did not make sense at all? Like that was the most that you can remember that was like, wait a sec, this defies all the books, everything that we’ve learned.”

“I had a top 10 at a Bass Open on the Red River, fishing a drop shot on a Bay, on a Baycaster, like everybody’s flipping the wood with a jig or a swim jig, Texas rig, all this stuff. And again, fishing in like little areas with a lot of boats. So I’m like, what can I show them? Basically, you know, what would Aaron do is what I’m thinking. And I’m like, he would be drop shotting. So pick up a drop shot, four inch leader, six inch worm. And I just put it on a baitcaster and start pitching all these stumps with a drop shot and just freaking killing them, dude.”

Sometimes the textbook of bass fishing can be a great rule of thumb, but sometimes even when conditions don’t make sense it does not mean that a pattern or technique won’t pay off big time. Just an example of trusting your gut and as says here, “just keep em honest”. check out the full episode of Serious Angler on your favorite podcast app or on our YouTube channel.

“I think the one thing you can say that is very true every day is, and this is just a very simple saying, but just keep them honest. If I’m fishing through an area and it’s in Florida. And I’m throwing a soft plastic, flipping around, whatever. And I just feel like, man, there’s more fish in that area. I’ve shown them this a lot. I need to show them something else. Even though maybe the conditions don’t line up exactly for one of these other techniques that I have on the deck or one of these other baits, I just need to do it for a few minutes just to... Number one, it does two things. You’re either going to catch more fish in the area by presenting them something else, or it’s just going to give you confidence like, okay, that’s not working. I don’t need to pick that up.”

If you’re not jumping into your hookset, are you actually setting the hook? 🤪 how many of you have tried this prank on your fishing buddies?

What was frog fishing and punching grass like back before tungsten weights and braided line? tells us how he used to have to catch em😂

“But same with frog fishing. When I first got into frog fishing, you threw it on a monofilament line and you had very, very dull hooks. I mean, you tried to touch them up with a file, but with monofilament line and a 40-foot, 50-foot cast, it didn’t, you know, it was like sitting on a rubber band. You just couldn’t get the bait set. And so I’ve always sort of said, you know, my frog fishing sort of took a back seat because I used to just cringe because I knew I was going to lose Three out of every four, you know, so, but yeah, the punching bite back then, you know, you, you didn’t have the equipment we had now. We had big enough rods, but we didn’t, you know, 25, 30 pound mono. And then, you know, we didn’t have Gamakatsu and owners super sharp hooks when we first started. We had old mustads and stuff like that that just were dull and those big lead weights, you know, those, I mean, they’re, they were the, you know, the size of your, pinkie, you know, but, yeah, it was quite a different punching technique back then.”

Key lesson from on why you don’t burn bridges in this industry and treat everyone with respect.

“You might not want to do that. You might be running a Ranger boat 10 years and seven years later, I was running a Ranger boat. So I kept my, my, you know, my relationships positive and I kept everything, you know, you just got to realize it’s not a huge industry and you just can’t run your way through it. And I think a lot of young guys do, and I think maybe I did when I first started. You just think, I’m so good. I don’t need, you’re gonna need them someday, you know, keep your, keep your, your. Your wits about you and be aware that yeah, you don’t need to be running over anybody because you might need them another time. So that was the biggest thing I realized is just don’t burn your bridges. Make sure you treat yourself, treat everybody as a professional and treat them as such.”
