Where do you fish bass by boat?
The undeniable advantage of boat fishing for sea bass is that it is possible to explore stations that are inaccessible from the shore and to change them quickly. Indeed, to succeed in your trip, it is essential to prospect because, at the rhythm of the tide, some stations are full of bass while others are deserted.
Flush rocks, whitewater and tormented areas, gullies, breaks in the bottom relief, wrecks, oyster and shellfish beds, and estuaries are generally suitable areas for sea bass capture.
In order to identify strategic points, a trick as old as the world consists simply to fish on hunts! If you see seabirds diving in the distance or if you see small fish caught from a sudden frenzy and jumping to the surface, it is certainly the ideal signal: the bass may be attacking its prey there. But beware, there is no question of entering the hunts (you would risk scaring the bar), stop your boat upstream instead.
When to fish sea bass in a boat?
Night fishing is generally more successful. At that moment, the prey becomes more visible to the bass: it is the time of the hunts. All you have to do is observe and wait for the bass to get busy for you too to get active and continue these boat hunts.
What are the techniques of boat fishing for bass?
The tail: you can either let your line pass flush with the bottom or try to feel the bottom permanently by hand or with a rod. It is then necessary for your boat to move at a constant speed so that your lure can move near the rocks.
Rowing Throw: Unlike a holding fishery, rowing throwing is a sport fishery that is similar to a stalker. It is about attracting and deceiving bars with the movements and vibrations of your line equipped with a lure and with which you make movements back and forth between the bottom and the surface.
Live fishery: at the end of your line, a live bait emits signals that, once again, attract the bass. If many baits are effective, it is certainly the sand eels and shrimps that the bar prefers. Nevertheless, the most important rule to follow is to offer the prey baits that already present on the fishing site.
