I was tossed zip-lock bag filled a variety of lures. On the day of the tournament, I met my partner, roughly an hour before the pre-tournament meeting. I called him up and he said that a cold front went through and reports coming in that it “stirred everything up” and the catch rates were really low.

I was fishing as a co-angler and I didn’t have the chance to pre-fish, but my partner had. An Old Story, For A New Day…Īny time muddy water is present and I’m forced to fish in these conditions an old story comes to mind when I had a tournament in Lake Mead. Irrespective of whether they have impaired vision or not, they are able to feed and carry on with their daily routine in such conditions. One irrefutable fact about the bass fish is that their vision is six times better as compared to that of humans.Īnother cool fact (in case you’re ever on Jeopardy) is their heightened senses are in the sense of smell that is 600 times better than that of humans and in addition to that, they can also sense the smallest of vibrations from 25 feet away. Luckily, the muddy water seems to be more of an issue with the fishermen than with the fish.
