Fishing: Bass Fishing

Ready to move beyond catching bluegill? The Bass Fishing class will teach you the techniques to start catching big bass!  Bass are one of the most popular fish that anglers target, and with a few tips and tricks of the trade, you’ll be catching bass in no time! We’ll use big hooks, plastic baits, night crawlers and more – depending on the season.  You’ll learn which types of lures and rigs to use on different types of water and the best part…? You’ll probably catch a bass during your first class!  All equipment (rods, reels, lures and bait) are provided so no need to bring your own fishing pole.  These classes are held on private ponds and most of our time will be spent fishing!

My first bass!
Bill, a satisfied individual fishing class customers

“Fishing was never part of my life and I had only done it a handful of times. Brad is a perfect teacher for the beginner…he has patience mixed with excellent technique. The experience was not only enjoyable, but I learned things that I can do on my own next i go out AND I actually caught fish!”
