I distinctly remember a trip cut in Michigan, Lake Huron, when they allegedly ran the perch. After a few hours soaking minnows, not something that we had. My father had a friend who lived within a mile of the intersection and told us to pack it and we all warmer in his friend's house. I complained as usual and asked if I could stay because I would start to bite when the fish thought it heats the water began during the day. He needed to respond to a little 'and said:"Paul is not cold?" Let's warm up with my mates place. Moreover, the fish will not bite. "Obviously, my answer was:" Daddy, please can I stay longer I know I start to bite them?. "Dad said," You know Paul, you have to love fishing I will give you what you can tell the fish for a few hours and I take Mark and Matthew with me if they want to be .. " I was never happy, and of course my brothers would not stay, so they went with Dad.
It was cold, about 40 degrees and I checked change / myMinnow every 5 minutes or so. I would like to start the cut, low cut, my body has changed, but nothing seemed that my bait. I saw my line (no bobber) when I finally got a bite. Crack on the rod in a staggered 10 "perch. In 10 minutes I took about 5 perch, stringered all the time when my father and brothers over, he came to pick me up. Damn, I wish it stayed in my friends father's home a little 'more.
Well guess what, 'she was so surprised that I got some fish,We still have a few hours and we were able to stay home with a bucket beautiful yellow-bellied perch (Mmmm, they were delicious).
Conditions for a tournament bass fisherman:
So what's my point? The point is that you either love to fish, even if they do not bite, or you like to do from time to time. If you love fishing as I do, it can be very competitive tournament low, while if you only fish once in a while you do not too successful. I am the latter, only the fishfor fun and save your money in tournament fees.
Another prerequisite for a good tournament bass fishing is the will to compete. If you go down, just like the hunting line and wait to catch the fish, then fishing tournament is not for you. I grew up playing baseball, running track and has made some of these sports. I also had a number of brothers was such competition instilled in my personality. In fact, when I together with my best friend Bass Fishing (met him inGainesville, Florida, while prefishing to UF for my studies), for fun or for a fishing tournament, we are always Raz each other. If you have more fish, he will shout something my way of saying something like "So if you're going to learn how to fish" or "That's no good cast your bait, it's no wonder you can not capture a fish! " big fish also has the bragging rights and the rule, we tease each other with phrases like this: "How ya Dink's gonna take?" or "My only fish than all 3yours ", etc. It 's always competitive, so if you have that spirit in the blood, then you can be a good tournament fisherman.
Sun Bass Fishing Tournament start:
OK you think you have met the prereqs and then fish the tournament. Here's my first suggestion for a local bass club. There are many published Bass Club lists on the Internet, so that only Google to start with "Bass Club Your condition" for a list. You could also ask at a local lake and talk to some fishermenthere.
There are two types of clubs below: 1 - and 2 draw of the tournament - team event. Clubs must start to draw surfers and sailors before the tournament, boaters are paired with non-surfers by drawing lots from a hat. If possible, try this club-style fish and the first few tournaments as a non-circular saw. You'll be surprised what you do not have bass fishing when you see how your partner boaters fish. It 'nice to learn from experienced anglers!
L 'Team club type have the same non-surfers and sailors worked throughout the year. If you have a good partner, fishing, fish are, go ahead and connect that type. The main disadvantage of this fishing tournament is that the learning curve for recreational fishing is a lot longer because you have to learn yet experienced tournament fishermen. Do you miss some specific suggestions on how to prevent flip, pitch, side-arm while pitching against splashes, Texas Rig correctlyetc. If you do this style, read a lot of information online and, perhaps, a swimming pool "or subscribe to the magazine BassMaster (I think that FLW has one).
So, my recommendation is to make a club and draw a lot of style in the tournament, so what's next. During the meeting, get your phone number so you can call them partners. During the meeting, the position of the boat's departure is generally known, as well.
Before the tournament real questions, call your partner:
1 - Do you want to come to youHouse and together we can or want to meet only on the ramp? Tell him, tell all the costs of gas with him, the standard for tournaments or drag team tournaments for that matter. Of course, you should not pay for gas in his truck when he says, only on the ramp. You always have to split the cost of gas boat!
2 - How many auctions can I bring and how to deal with? Can I have a cooler or one for my drink? If the boater has a small boat, he may askto reduce the number of fixtures. This is a courtesy, his boat unless you are, right?
3 - Should I bring my life jacket? Life jackets are a must for bass tournaments, but the boat and your partner may have other 2 can only be the mass of the boat. Ask him only if he has another, or does not like strangers to them for education.
4 - When you want me in your home or ramp? There is nothing more aggravatinga circular saw, as a late non-surfers. Normally, the boat driver, "pad" the time of driving an hour or so, stops for gas, stop for a snack and make it possible flat tire. So if you spend the night before at a local hotel near the lake, be prepared to get up very early to make the trip to the house or sailors to be ready for an early harvest by boaters. Just be ready when the boat driver will be requested.
5 - If you give me some sandwiches for you? Although not essential question isis a great offer and boaters will be more willing to help during the tournament.
Pre-tournament preparation:
Prefishing: the most neglected part of the pre-tournament preparation is the lack of pre-fishing. If you are a boater or non-circular, as a class of high school or college, if you do not want your work will not be good evidence. Just think of the tournament as a test and pre-fishing for homework.
Pre-fishing includes checking out the lake, where theThe tournament is in place before the tournament proper. No matter how many times have you been successful on this lake, in the past, you should find the fish, the dominant model for the weather, the level of water, cover and time of year. Try to be as close as possible prior to the fish, the date of the tournament. While prefishing, do not drive for more than 2 fish in one place, and if the fish are not very active in cold fronts, it is recommended to limit to one fish. Then useHooks with barbs removed when another scan, that the bass is a good concentration and not on the hook for more hits this area. If you see the fish, just use the GPS to mark the points and maybe catch some bait a hook to verify that the fish would be willing to take the bait.
If you are the non-boater, it is still your duty first, the fish if you have a boat. Try prefishing with a partner. The partner should not be the circular saw / non-boater, but moreLines in the water with different baits, the more likely the model for success.
Fishing equipment:
Retie lures with all the nodes cool when you remove the first few meters of the line or replace the line if necessary. You never know if you have nicks or abrasions of the fishing trip last node. Let the hook until the day of the tournament, then put on the soft plastic sterile.
Make sure the fish smell enough for your soft plastics and toothpicks enough for Texasrigged bait. Make sure you pack your pliers and clipper.
Sharpen all hooks. Crankbaits such as Rattle Trap often blunt hook. Replace it with sharp people like Gamagatzu's.
Finally, the rod covers, if the first auction to save in your closet. This will not only protect the temples, but to prevent tangling of the auction.
boats and towing equipment: the boat driver, note the following:
1-2 cycle oil tank is full, and take a gallon more ifpossible.
2 - Fill the tank or at least enough to take over the entire tournament.
3 - Charge batteries trolling motor battery and motor large.
4 - Check your trailer wheels and tires of tractor air pressure and wheel bearing lubrication zerk fitting on the trailer.
5 - Fill out your towing vehicle and the oil and antifreeze.
6 - cheap 12v air pumps and pneumatic Kit plug-in to bring this great work if you get a screw / nailis your tractor or trailer tires.
7 - Check jack to work on your trailer when you can do to a bottle of Jack for your trailer if you intend to buy an apartment.
8 - Ensure spare tire in them.
9 - I always love your safety chains when towing, and check the belt winch / cable for signs of wear.
10 - Make sure the trailer lighting connector
11 - Plug in your boat, just to be safe. When it rains, you canAlways consult your bilge or cap on the ramp. It 'better than trying the boat on the trailer when it goes down, because you forgot to get the plug-in!
12 - Check your boat lights, to ensure that work.
13 - Make sure you bring your rain gear and life jackets.
14 - Make sure you have not yet expired flares, fire extinguishers and whistle or horn.
15 - Check your registration boat / trailer registration. I leave it in a box in my boat.
16 - PrepareFloat marker.
17 - Bring the fish finder and GPS.
18 - Check all the lights on the trailer and towing vehicle.
19 - Bring the weight in bags.
Boat launching ramp Preparation: make sure you leave early enough to have the boat ramp at least an hour before turning on the darkroom. Safelight not the rising of the sun itself! It is usually 30 minutes to an hour before sunrise. Bass tournaments begin the process of starting a backup.
If you are on the ramp and approaches to a number of boats to passThe parking lights only (as long as you can see right). This will help the fishermen, the presentation of their boats up the ramp and take the path of their boat, while again. Bright lights in their eyes when you save is blind!
While online, follow this list:
1 - Keep the lights on "position.
2 - Take your boat straps, savers post and make sure the boat plug
3 - If a vehicle pulls in front of you forward, to return to the vehicle andrising again. This prevents you from forming a line that goes to the main road.
4 - Prime your fuel bulb.
5 - Highlighting your boat.
6 - Reduce the engine safety starting position.
7 - Make sure that everything is out of the truck and into your boat, you're going to take. If there is a boat online, open your live wells and those monitoring can be done quickly.
8 - You are to begin their turn to line up the trucks and boatsthe ramp. When the boat driver can not have him back in the boat with you in it. Make sure you tell him to close all the windows, take the key and lock-up after the car parks. Tell him that you watch a show of hands, as backup lights for the light and stop him when the tires of the first contact of water. This is so that you can undo the bow strap or cable. It also opened the side window so he can just in case something happens or ignores his hands.Normally, a movement is here to keep our hands to ensure the means to a palm tree in front (like a cop stop) stop means. Tell him, take his time. A point left or right means that the boat has to go that route, but here it just means a return, only to leave again.
9 - If the tires first touch of water to stop the boat. Go for the front and back waist bow. Go back to the driver of the boat, and have not returned boaters who arrive at the boat floats, then give the stopSignal. Give the signal to go ahead (forward), so that he can park.
10 - Reduce the engine the rest of the road for petrol engines (not required for EFI systems) and set the bar to a minimum in the best position to start. Prime the engine by pressing and holding the (multi-engine) and start the engines. Exit ramp from the street as soon as possible and find a place for the beach or dock.
11 - Turn on the headlights boat.
12 - Warm up the engine until it is hot enough that it is easyStart the starting time. Then turns off.
13 - Connect the live wells.
14 - While your partner is back to your boat, use the rods to use, you go out and strap in with your Rod Savers or unnecessary physical effort on the front deck.
15 - Use your torch and make your soft plastics.
Pre-tournament meeting:
This meeting is usually held when all the fishermen launched their boats. It can occur before, if you're late to start, but this delay will onlythe meeting.
During the meeting, weigh the size limit, the number of fish per angler or boat off limits, are discussed in time and other items. Save time and official weigh in time. The official time is known to be equivalent to the time the tournament director. Therefore, your clock added to the official tournament game time.
Once the session is finished, take the boat, your dawn lifejackets and attach the kill switch. Do not start the enginecloser to the starting point. This only makes it easier to hear the tournament director.
If the boat is idle numbers called on all the other boats after they are deleted, to get to level quickly, so do not hold the line. Do not launch aircraft, if there is a minimum lot of boats in your route planning. Just use common sense here, nobody likes a wave on the sides of their boat when another boat levels are directly next to them!
Tournament Time
If youand your partner your "homework" have not done a lot of appeal changed to link bait or find bite tries to walk around the lower lake. If there is a large fall cold front or other major changes as the water level may need to adjust. Points are always fish caught in the pre-fishing, but you may need to flip or visit the nearby drop-off to find the fish is out during the exercise.
Navigators do not have the boat driver preferences, if you have developed a goodReport before the tournament to be, things go much smoother. The non-boater usually owns the rights to 50% of the front of the boat during a club tournament. In some major tournaments, this is not the case. If you want the front, just be polite and ask. When the boat driver says no, do not take you further and do the best we can from the back. A circular saw, which always says no to a request for a non-boater is often found at a later time and are no longer welcome in this club.
They areThe driver of the boat, just remember the first time I started and how unfair it was when the sailors who have never left forward. Remember not to mumble the club a specific person who constantly backboated his partner, his elbows like a chicken, so there was not a boater so could play effectively. I think this is the biggest disadvantage of a tournament draw!
When you catch your first fish, able to measure quickly, closed the mouths of the leaders in metal plate as the "golden rule". Make sure that not only measuresWeigh in, but you might be a ticket out of the wildlife officers punished. Close the drain plug for your live wells if you do not already have and turn on the aerator. Put the fish in the livewell as soon as possible. If the wells are filled with life, as I move to move and put it on my timer.
If you hook a good fish, I usually leave the hooks in his stomach and cut the line. This will give a lot less than you ripping the hook.
If you get a limit, I filterWeigh all my fish with a float number. For example # 1 float = 2.8 pounds, # 2 = 1.5 pounds, and so on. The record of this on a piece of paper. If I have my next fish on the line, I informed the lightest and the new emphasis on paper for the float. I hope that we will continue to do all day, but remember, the more fish in the livewell as the limit is.
Netting fish is very important. The last thing I want to do is to put the fish wackside or his head cut off and the fish. If your partner a fish, has a role in your line quickly and within the network. Try the net near the water when the fish approaches that try soaking the network before the fish head and do it the first network to obtain. In this way, the fish swim in the network, rather than away from it. Never hit your partner or the lateral line of fish to the network. Usually your partner will let you know when the net, but you have to be ready!
If it is hot, be sureice add to your live wells for the occasion. Also, be sure to use sunscreen.
When you get close to the tournament weigh in time to remind each other what time it is and how long it will take. Adjusting the time, depending on the weather. A thunderstorm or high winds in the afternoon or perhaps double or triple the time you arrive at your place. Set to make sure of this.
Weigh in
If it's a great line, keep your fish in the livewell so they do notmust weigh-in oxygen in the bag. When the time is near, to move quickly to weigh your fish in bags and make sure the fish is not directly (was Hmmm, this never happened to me) live in the lake and wells. The Too Close For Comfort fish, measure it again and if you're unsure, ask the tournament director to measure for a courtesy visit. This prevents the measurement of short fish and a hefty fine.
If you have the prereqs, you need to tournament bass fishing, because you try to bereally like the competition!
Sincerely,
The grand opening Herald
