Thank you for the questions. Sitting back and listening to videos is easy, but I still need to absorb all the information, especially when there are so many videos and information on the internet. Investigating and answering your questions will help me learn by re-watching, researching, and writing an answer, along with lots of practice time. I think I just asked for homework? ;-)

(Part1)- Environmental factors like photoperiod, i.e., length of day and night, are transition triggers. In the fall, the fish will school up and chase fish with less visible cues. In other seasons, the fish will generally dissipate in the lake except during spawn.

Here is my essay, Professor Ha Ha: I try to consider the life cycle of the Bass, which includes Pre-Spawn, Spawn, Summer, Fall, etc., as well as the current and predicted weather conditions to determine the ideal location and fishing style. Countless lures are available, and I group them into two broad categories: Power and Finesse, and sub-categories such as water column, speed, etc. The color of the lure seems important. I group colors into either dark or light, with thousands of variations. I want to improve my skills in choosing a set of lures; this can be pretty challenging. I tend to have too many rods on deck to figure out what works. So, could you recommend any videos that could help me understand the Bass life cycle, and the lake/river/weather conditions that affect it? This is a big ask, and may even be the main purpose of this school. I am not asking for too much, am I? LOL.

Can you list some videos we can view about ecosystem and fish behavior? You mention that a lot. 

I love the don’t complicate it. KISS principle Keep It Simple Silly(Stupid)

It sounds like it is good when you NEED that first one in the live welll or the last one. 

What structure should we look for on sonar with the Ned Rig? Isolated cover, grass lines, other?

Who are the best professional bass fisherman that are known as primarily Ned rig users? What do they do differently?

I feel like the Ned rig could be used all the time because it mimics bugs or worms that a fish would always eat if they had the chance. I like to keep something like a Ned rig on deck just in case. Can you talk about times when you would not use a Ned rig?

Would you put other small plastics (craw,creature,etc) on a Ned rig? If so, What situation would dictate that?

Thanks for a great overview. I like that you keep it more simple. Do you always have a ned rig on deck?
