Jace_xiong Posted October 17, 2015 Posted October 17, 2015 Newbie here. Aside from when I was fishing as a kid I only really got into fishing about 5-6 years ago. Finally dedicated & figured out how to catch them 2 years ago haha. Mainly fished for Striped bass and ocean fish for stingrays and leopard sharks as I wanted to "catch big fish". Would like to note that it was all just soaking bait and waiting for bites, which is certainly relaxing but often times very boring. Could watch whole trilogies waiting for 1 bite haha. Recently got into bass fishing beginning of this year at the start of summer which isn't the greatest time to start. However, it was because I was throwing top water on the American River on an overcast day and had multiple bass hits, 2 big sizes as well, & 1 keeper striper. You all know how awesome topwater fishing is. Ever since, I've been hooked and have just gotten into throwing senkos and jigs.. no luck on the jigs yet. The Two things I like about bass fishing is the ability to search and "hunt" for them & the varity of baits/styles you can use to catch them. Striped bass is just soaking bait, trolling or scrambiling towards boils if your lucky to see them. Like, "I know theres some bass by that falen tree or under those covers" cant do that with stripers. well if you've read this far thanks and I'm glad to be part of this community. I don't post alot, but once in a while I will. Sorry but I'm more of a lurker and like to watch/read asborbing as much info as I can. Seriously, I have relatives who bass fish for YEARS and somehow I know more then they do after just a few months. haha, see you guys on the water.. 1 Quote
