The bass, well, if we really need to be very specific about it, the black bass, is more popularly known as the North American game fish. Whatever the species, whether the largemouth bass, the smallmouth, the spotted bass, the Guadalupe bass or some other sub-type, the bass is the second most sought-after game fish in the United States.
They’re sought after because they give anglers what they really crave for… real fishing action!
The adrenaline rush from all the excitement bass fishing gives is reward enough for the sport fisherman. Firstly, there’s the chase in open water or submerged weed beds, then the resistance when they’re hooked, then on to the jumping and aggressive fighting in order to escape, and after that, the exertion when luring in. It’s breathless speed and intense anticipation from the moment the reel is cast off, the fish caught and then cast back to the sea.
Bass fishing is today a multi-billion industry with income generated from the vast development of all kinds of fishing gears, fishing supplies, fishing equipment, fishing boats and also from skill training courses and other spin-offs.
The bass are considered very strong fighters by competitive anglers. That’s why it is such a feat when you do get a real catch. It’s an accomplishment that somehow says something about your skill and stamina as a professional angler. So, what are you waiting for? Go fishing for bass now and enjoy the same intense emotions that only bass fishing can impart!
