The book contains extensive chapters on bass (largemouth and smallmouth), panfish (crappie, sunfish and perch), walleye, northern pike and muskie, and trout. Another chapter is devoted to catfish and one to white bass and stripers.
By studying this book, you'll learn everything necessary to devise an effective fish-catching strategy for each of these highly sought-after gamefish, including their basic behavioral traits, seasonal movement patterns in different types of water, and proven live bait and artificial lure techniques.
Advanced Freshwater Fishing Strategies takes you well beyond the basics, with in-depth information that will help you find productive fishing spots quickly in a wide variety of waters. Fundamental fishing techniques are shown in detail, but you'll also learn many advanced and unusual techniques that will help you catch fish under tough conditions or in unusual situations.
In the bass chapter, for instance, you'll learn the best methods for catching largemouth when they're holding on different kinds of structure, in various types of acquatic weeds, and around woody cover like flooded brush, trees and stumps. You'll learn when and how to use spinnerbaits, crankbaits, worms, jigs and spoons, along with a diverse collection of largemouth-angling tips - those little things that can make a big difference in your success.
Weather is the nemesis of all fishermen, but this book explains exactly how the weather influences gamefish activity patterns, so you can plan your fishing strategy accordingly. We'll even show you some tricks for salvaging your trip when faced with a severe cold front.
Sprinkled throughout the book you'll find articles detailing techniques used by some of the country's most successful anglers. In the bass chapter, for instance, renowned California trophy largemouth expert, Bill Murphy, divulges the secrets that have made him the all-time champion at catching "teen" bass, those over 13 pounds. Fly-fishing authority Larry Dahlberg demonstrates how to catch smallmouth on a new style of diving fly that bears his name. And in the walleye chapter, Dick (the Griz) Grzywinski, one of the Midwest's top walleye guides, reveals the unique snap-jigging method that has made him a legend.
With hundreds of angling experts from across the United States and Canada as contributors, this book is truly a complete fishing encyclopedia.
