When my older brother came home from the service in 1970, I was 13yrs old. We stayed at my grandfather's farm that summer, and fished almost every evening. He was a much better fisherman than me. He's the first one that taught me how to cast to targets, choosing the correct lures, tying knots, and everything else he knew about fishing for bass. My dad and grandpa liked to fish too, they just didn't have as much time for it. Later, when I started in carpentry work, I met a guy 20yrs older than me. He taught me more advanced stuff, plastic worm fishing, structure fishing, etc, and got me into reading some good info too. We fished together a lot, and entered some club tournaments together too. Now my grandson Aiden is my main fishing partner, and it's been a rewarding experience trying to teach him, and watch his fishing skills improve. Having a patient teacher when your starting out can make a big difference in this sport. There's so much to learn. Who taught you how to fish for bass?
