I think I understand where he’s going with this but I’m not sure. I tried my best to pull it out. This is the second time he’s mentioned this. Here’s the way I understand it.

When fishing tidal rivers I’ve noticed a better bite 4 specific times. First hour of outgoing last hour of outgoing. First hour of incoming and last hour of incoming. The moon causes those shifts. Well if I’m thinking right those same active time periods happen in non tidal situations without tidal movement. Also the best days are during outgoing for the first few hours of daylight. When first outgoing meets first light they bite their ars off.

I think this is what he’s saying.

Are You Using This Knot When Frog Fishing?

On the live class Monday we talked about frog fishing quite a bit. One of the things that mentioned wast that all frogs aren't created equal. Some really are better than others for certain scenarios. I thought I'd give a gear list of my favorite frogs with links that you can view or buy them at.Jakal Iobee - Best for finesse open water frogging. https://www.tackledirect.com/jackall-topwater-iobee-frog-lures.htmlSpro Bronze eye - Best all around frog.

someone asked a really good question that I didn't have the answer for today. At least I didn't immediately have the answer. " How can you tell fish are in a summer pattern?" What are you guys thinking?

Here's what I look for..

Most of the time I notice most of the bass vacate bank structure and isolated cover. (generally speaking)

fish seem to be in groups near main lake intersections. ex. Main lake points, humps , grass lines brush etc.

Water temps over 80 ( I don't like this metric because there's so many metrics to consider)

The way the fish looks. This could be beat up tails. The fish can be a little skinnier, and sometimes if we're further into the season the fish can actually be fatter.

schooling activity on the main lake

The hard part about this is that often time depending on the species these "triggers" could be any time of the year. Namely spotted bass and smallmouth. THATS WHERE IT GETS HARD TO EXPLAIN.

If you're fishing isolated cover in creeks and all of a sudden you notice it hard to get bit, most likely your fishery has transitioned to a "summer" stage. Move to the main lake or river and look for schools of fish near any main lake intersection. A intersection would be somewhere a creek meets the main river. Anywhere a a hump or high spot, or ledge is near or on the main river. It may take longer to get bit but once you do there's usually more fish in those areas.
