Hi Guys,

I'm new to this forum, but I love fishing for those green fishies as I'm sure all of you are!!

The problem for me is that the tactics used within the different seasons differs, and I'm still trying to figure out what works where and when...

Please help me and other bass fishing enthusiasts to maximise our bass fishing experience year round by sharing your experience and knowladge, thus adding valuble info on fishing spots, lures & technicques that works during the 4 seasons at different venues.

Add as much detail as you can, the more we add, the more we all can benefit from this exercise.

Also add the bank fishing details for those of us not so fortunate to have boat, so we all can benifit from the details provided...

Thank you all in advance for your inputs!!

Good luck in finding the the little green fishies!!!

I'll start on the first venue, season, lure and techniques...

Venue: Klein paradys, Brits - 012 252 1938 (safety is very good, with camping facilities available)

Spots to fish: To the left & to the right of the yeti between the standing timber & next to the well i can almost say smallish island

Season: Spring - Summer

Lures: 4" Natural/ Pumpkin / Watermelon color flukes & fat albert type grubs

Techniques:

Flukes / grubs

Cast & let lure sink & settle for a moment, start with one or two to even three short jerks upwards (moving the lure about 5 - 10 cm at a time), then wait a couple of seconds and repeat (I usually start slow and go faster every other cast until I get results)

Spinner

Start with a slow consistent retrieve with 1-2 second pauses every now & then, gradually move faster every other cast until the fish tel you what speed they like for the day

Hope this helps to get things started!!

Welcome

Now if you wanna save yourself alot of time, do a search for a topic named "Known Bass Venues" here in the Bass Fishing section, there's some valuable info on many a venue around Gauteng, perhaps not much on lures and techniques but nonetheless valuable.
