Rock bass are more closely related to bluegill than other forms of bass, but it's body shape and mouth size is more similar to black bass species like the smallmouth. It is olive-brown or bronze in color along the sides and back and covered sporadically with spots and even lines of black, giving it a striped look at times. The darkness of its color alters, however, based on its surroundings. Rock bass have two connected dorsal fins, with the front half made up of a series of spines. Rock bass also have 5-6 anal fin spines. Perhaps the most striking feature are its eyes, which are quite large and bright red in color.
Can weigh up to three pounds (1.4 kg) and 14 inches (35 cm).
Their native range extends from the St. Lawrence River and Great Lakes system through to Saskatchewan in Canada, and southwards down the Mississippi River basin in the United States, going as far south as Missouri and Arkansas.
Rock bass prefer clear streams and lakes with rocky structure and vegetation. The more cover there is in a lake (especially rock, as their name would suggest), the more chance a rock bass population has to thrive. Rock bass show little signs of being deterred by human activity and so can often be found under docks. Their preference for habitat is shared by smallmouth, and it's common to see both species sharing the same waters.
10-12 years.
Aquatic insects primarily, but also small crayfish and minnows. They tend to feed along the bottom.
Rock bass typically reach reproductive maturity at three years of age. Male bass build nests over gravel in a slight current, often next to a large rock of some sort. Females can lay up to 10,000 eggs, often sharing the same space with other females. Bass hatch in three to four days, with the adult males guarding the nests in the meanwhile.

They are going to topicalized by the four elements - Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire. Today's blog will be about Wind. High winds and choppy waves can wreak havoc on any fishing trip, especially when trying to troll or cast. You'll get blown off course and it's difficult to achieve a
Preparing for spring is certainly an endeavor in patience and persistence. There are so many things to remember in the late winter and early spring preparation it is hard to say where to start. I usually begin with trying to whittle down all the tackle I bought last summer and fall down to a manageable level. I used to carry 4 hard sided plastic tackle boxed and two soft sided
Sitting at my tying bench I was inspired to tie something a little different. I came across a spider pattern in one of my books and modified it so that it was easier to tie and was more fishable than the original. Take a curved scud hook (size 12) and place it in your vice. Take 6/0 white tying thread and dress your hook. Take some white deer hair (not bucktail) and tie it on top of
