Some shared general bass fishing techniques for people just getting into the sport
Keep it simple. Buy really good equipment that will last. Far as baits, don't buy the ones that catch your eye, buy the ones that catch the fish. When someone wins the Classic with a $4 or $5 bait it goes to $10 or more over night thats crazy. Don't by it. Also invest in a lure retriever.
