Spring Fishing Tips

Spring is an excellent time to go fishing as many fish species become more active with warmer water temperatures. Here are some tips for spring fishing:

1. Research: Understand the behavior and habitat preferences of the fish species you're targeting. Different fish have different habits in spring. Bass, Crappie, Walleye, Smallmouth, and Saltwater species will react differently to spring conditions.

2. Monitor Water Temperature: Warmer water temperatures trigger fish activity. Use your graph or a thermometer to check the water temperature. As it warms up, fish become more active, and spawning tendencies will differ.


3. Choose the Right Bait: In spring, fish may be more attracted to live bait such as worms, minnows, or insects. Match your soft plastic bait to the natural food sources available in the water. (Match the Hatch when possible)


4. Adjust Your Techniques: Spring fishing often requires different techniques than other seasons. Experiment with different depths, retrieves, and bait presentations to see what technique is working the best.


5. Focus on Structure: Fish tend to concentrate around structures like fallen trees, rocks, or submerged vegetation in spring. These provide cover and ambush points for feeding.


6. Time of Day: Early morning and late afternoon are usually the best times to fish in spring, but if the water temperatures are cooler the most favorable time might be midday fishing, especially on cloudy day. 


7. Stay Flexible: Weather conditions can change rapidly in spring, and fronts often affect fish behavior. Be prepared to adjust your tactics accordingly.


8. Be Patient: Spring fishing can be unpredictable, but patience is key. Sometimes you may need to wait for the right moment, and location for the fish to bite.


9. Safety First: Spring weather can be unpredictable, so make sure to check the weather forecast before heading out. Dress appropriately and always wear a life jacket if you're fishing from a boat.


10. Check Fishing Regulations: Always be aware of fishing regulations in your area, including size limits, catch limits, and any seasonal closures.


By following these tips and staying adaptable to changing conditions, you can increase your chances of success when fishing in the springtime.
