#6321, "Bass eat Bass?"
|
With all the emphasis on Big bass eating trout,I've been thinking alot lately about the Bass imitations in my swimbait box.I realize bass probably prefer a freshly stocked,lost and ,easily caught trout ,but what happens when the trout move out to deeper waters,stocking stops, and the free meals become less abundant? Bass must feed,I think this is the time to start fishing the "other" baits we have.But how do we as anglers figure out when the time is here to start using the other baits we have? that what has been on my mind lately is when to make the transition? 3 weeks after the last stock truck of the season? a month? I've seen Bass chasing a few trout in the middle of the summer at social security point on lake cachuma,the truck hadnt stocked in a few months by this time.I never know when to change ,what are your thoughts? tight lines, brian

I agree ,i guess what im trying to relay is when does it change from trout to whatever as there primary forage? could you use a baby bass bait year round as well? or do they feed upon each other only when other sources such as shad/trout arent available readily? maybe im just babbling but i do actually have a running thought in my head :7 brian

territorial pissing of a bass,gotta love it ,its like watching a big dog guarding his yard.lol...I caught a greedy bass with a smaller bass in his mouth i was amazed that he had the nuts to take a lure even while eating another fish.once while floattubing in lake otay my buddy got ran on a aat worm and lost the fish,1/2hour later i catch the same bass (about 2 lbs) with the same style ,size worm and low and behold hes got my buddys worm still stuck in his mouth.Bass are my favorite for these reasons! greedy lil basstards they are, tight lines y'all, brian

the whole reason I got into swimbait fishing was when i saw a 10 inch bass being reeled in by my dad, then a 8lb+ bass come slowly from the depths and inhales it withouth skipping a beat!!! Then of coarse my dad tried to reset the hooks to nail the bigger bass and yanked the little one right out of its mouth :o I dont have the luxury of fishinng in a trout stocked pond, but i'm sure a small bass is still on the menu during those summer months, but what do I know, you guys are the experts.!!
BEN god bless
