![]() ![]() The low stretch characteristic of braided line does just that. It’s the braid’s responsibility is to ensure a good hookset with so much line out. That’s where the Revo Rocket and braided line shine. And lastly selecting a bait as large as possible, like the Berkley Cane Walker, completes the package and gives you the greatest range possible.īut with range comes responsibilities. Moving from monofilament to a smaller diameter 40-pound braid allows you to pack more line on the reel.

You also have to maximize your strike zone when fishing for schooling fish offshore. But if you instead move to where they currently are, you’ll find yourself chasing ghosts all day. And they’ll be back shortly to use it again. If you look down at your graph, you’ll usually be able to identify some variation in the bottom contour near where the fish were pushing the bait to the surface.

With nothing else around in the open, typically clear water, a bass boat is about as alarming to the bait and the bass chasing them, as the fin of a shark cruising down the shoreline at Panama City Beach. When an angler decides to move offshore and target schooling bass that are chasing herring or shad, it often seems like the fish continually surface just out of reach. But getting caught chasing schooling fish can be the most frustrating thing you’ll ever do with a rod in your hand. What not to doįishing for schooling fish is extremely exciting. However, the wrong equipment quickly turns excitement into agony. With nowhere else to go, the bass explode on the bait along the surface, creating an opportunity for the eager angler.
