There is one thing that an effective bass fisherman does to become “effective” and anyone can do it. Actually this one thing isn’t reserved exclusively to bass fishing, it actually applies to all fishing. That one thing is practice.

With that said, lets get down to learning how to catch bass, shall we? The below tips will help you catch more and bigger bass.

1. Water Clarity - Water clarity is very important when learning how to catch bass with consistency. Here are some general rules when it comes to water clarity. In clear water bass rely heavily on their sight to determine what to eat. In clear water conditions you want to use line that is as light as possible. Line in the 6-8 pound range is a great idea. Bass are much more apt to see your line in clear water conditions. In stained or muddy water bass rely much more on their lateral lines to “feel” their quarry. For this reason in stained/muddy water conditions, lures that provide a lot of flash or vibration are a good idea.
2. Lure Color - The color of your bass lure can make a big difference in success rates. When the water is clear, you want to use colors that mimic the baitfish in the area as closely as possible. Realism is the key to color in clear water conditions. When there is a lot of cloud cover in the sky, the color of your lure should change as well. Chartreuse has always been known as a good color on cloudy days. Black and brown are also good color choices when there is heavy cloud cover.
3. When You Are Fishing - This time of the day and month that you are trying to catch bass is of the utmost importance to catching more and bigger bass. You can know the most opportune times for fishing simply by paying attention to the weather and moon. These two forces of Mother Nature have an amazing impact on the feeding behavior of bass.
