Springtime Fishing

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

What do the fish above have in common? They are all state records in Oklahoma for their own species of bass. Also, they were all caught between April and June. Springtime is when most species of fish become more active. Check out the video below for more info.

Some very basic tips for springtime fishing:

  • Think “shallow close to deep”
  • Cover lots of water
  • The warmer the weather, the shallower the fish
  • Slow things down, especially before the warmth sets in
