This Week on Extreme Angler TV- "Hide & Seek Bass"

Posted On December 27, 2012

Come out, come out, wherever you are!
Thats the theme of this weeks new episode.

I`m fishing a river system off a large lake in northern Ontario and find out real quick that the fish don`t want anything to do with chasing down their meals on this day.
I decided to pick up a few of my "go-to" baits like the Strike King new 3/8 oz football finesse jig with a Jr. KVD chunk trailer, a hack attack jig with the same smaller chunk and last, but certainly not least, the Strike King Rodent rigged on a sliding tour grade sinker and 4/0 wide gap Daiichi hook.



I had to pull my cap down, and start picking apart every single potential "hiding spot" I could find to get bit. Once I located the spot on the spots, the fish had no problem eating one of my baits, but they had to be presented right on their dinner plate before attempting to strike.
One of the great things about fishing in northern Ontario is the fact smallmouth bass inhabit the same shallow water and nasty cover largemouth can be found, so I was fortunate to locate some very hard fighting brown bass with the fat green ones on this day.


This is one of those popular episodes that shows the good and the bad on a bright sunny summer day when the fish just love to hide in their favorite spots and its your job to seek them out with the right baits, presentations, focus and determination.
Put all these elements into play and you`ll find a lot more bass next season.
Debut`s tonight at 7:00 pm ET. and all week long on WFN.
Hope you enjoy it.
