While teaching bass fishing in the local high schools, I'm asked quite
often; What can young or inexperienced anglers do to increase their fishing
success? There are two things I would suggest. First I would try to fish
with as many different anglers as possible. Pay attention, and try to learn
from something from each and every one of them. Second, I would suggest that
you join a local bass or fishing club as soon as your old enough. Try to
join a draw type club that will enable you to fish with many different
anglers. Even after I've fished bass tournaments for over 25 years I still
learn from everyone I fish with. These two simple tips will save you years
of trial and errors.

One tip I would think you should use in the winter time use a jig with a pork frog it kills the largemouth evey time good luck fishermen.
when fishing for bass use a split tail jig with a shiny chrome weight right in the front of it
When fishing for carp on a warm day if floating baits such as bread won't catch carp try a dry such as a daddy long legs the carp will take this as it is more natural
If you love bass fishing, put a bobber on your line with a live minow on the hook.  Allow minow 2 feet of line. This tip works best in sping & summer.
Use corn to catch bluegills
When fishing in saltwater and you have a dead shrimp, let the line out a little and reel it in and then wiggle it some. I guarentee you'll catch something."Thats's what  I did and I caught a 3 1/2 ft Bonet Head Shark.
From Karl
Don't use a bobber and let it sink, this works with all kinds of bass.
Take a suet feeder and stuff bread and cheese in it and put it next to the bobber. It will atract more fish
When you are Trolling with a umbrella rig in salt water in the ocean you can catch alot of bluefish and striped bass. The best tip is to keep your thumb on the line if you don't the line will get tangled when letting line out. I tried this my self and cought over 30 bluefish! If you don't have a boat you can cast off the beach. I garetee some fish for dinner. But of corse you will need to know the tide,when, where, and how to do it.             GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!

Baits to use that are the best

Striped bass- clams, crabs, bunker, or Herring, bloodworms, sandworms. Bluefish- squid strips, little minnows, bunker, or herring
Largemouth bass- krayfish, night crawlers or worms, bugs, and little bait fish, or corn
Smallmouth bass- bugs, corn, worms, or some food bright like light colers for ex. corn or pepperoni.
Perch- night crawlers, or worms and somtimes bugs.
Catfish- anything!
Bullheads (baby catfish)- anything.
Sunnys - anything.
Snappers- minnows or bait fish
Flounder / Fluke - bloodworms, sandworms, clams, squid strips.

A good strategy for largemouth bass is tossing a frog 3 feet below the bobber on a steep drop off. Another deadly strategy this time for smallmouth, is to cast a crayfish onto a shoal without a bobber and wait for a smallie to hit it.the best time for fishing with these techniques is just when the sun leaves the water to when it's almost dark out.If you don't catch anything, that's why they call it fishing not catching.
I like to use rubber worms alot and one of the things i like to do is cast it over a stump hanging over the water so when you jig it it goes up and down and stays in one spot so when you want to fish the same spot for a while you don't have to keep on casting.
If you keep your line tight and always set the hook with a shiner you'll always get'em.

Two years ago I ended using a bobber with a grasshopper. I don't use a bobber any more but I caught a LOT of fish with a bobber. For beginers use a bobber and a grasshopper will catch you a lot of fish.
It is a good idea to fish in the morning or at night because it is nice and cool and the fish bite more when it is cooler
Boil water and cornmeal and add 2 tablespoons of pancake syrup.  And one Tablespoon of extract vanilla (for smell).  Works great with Carp and Catfish.
When your at a pond that has a whole lot of rocks in and around it try using a #10 hook with a small square of cheese around the larger rocks that you can see.
When your just learning to cast and can't quite hit your target try taking a large step forward.  If you are right handed step with your left foot and if your left handed step with your right foot
When using a Rat L Trap move the lure in a z motion then it will look more like a real minnow
If you are trying to catch bluegail, you need to cast your line out by a live tree or really good fertile soil.
Wait till August. That's when the fish really bite
Other thing bass like anything that shines. Do that and you will be fishing master.
While making dough add a cheeslet  . the smell will atract more fish!!!
My tip is when you are using a black and white worm .Put the hook in between both colors.
CATFISH TRICK: Take a bunch of chicken guts, liver, etc. and throw them all in a burlap bag. Toss the bag about 10 feet from shore and wait. Soon the bag should be swarmed with catfish. Then simply cast your line out into the flock and you should have one hooked in no time.
I have a tip that might come in handy for catfishing. Channel cat live shrimp
Coat all your artificial lures and even some live ones with bacon grease even use a piece of bacon fat as bait, fish love the grease.
When you are fishing a top water popper,when you cast you should let it sit there for about 15 seconds or ontill the riples are gone.then popp it about 4-5 times then let it sit ans do it over again .
Most of the time the bass will hit it when it first lands in the water when its just sitting there.
For nesting Bass use a tub jig with a little alkeseltser in it. It will drive the bass crazy and they will strike hard, so hold on tight.
Some fish like...catfish+carp-love bread
                            perch+sunfish-like stinky cheese
                            chub+catfish-love hot dogs
                            largemouth bass-like minnows+night crawlers
                            smallmouth bass-like crickets
 My bass fishing tip is to always keep your eye on the pole.
