How to Fish for Bass in Different Types of Fronts

Most anglers understand that weather plays a significant role in bass fishing, really any kind of fishing for that matter. Fish are sensitive to temperature and pressure changes in their environment. Bass tend to like warm water better than cool water, and they are more likely to feed in this type of environment. When you have temperate or warm weather for a long amount of time, bass will tend to form a predictable feeding habit. They’ll feed at approximately the same time of day, and in the same areas, as long as their is enough food for them there. If the night time presents cooler water temperatures, the fish may feed during the day when it is warmer, then dive into the deeper water as the surface temperature drops. That is just one example. Let’s look at warm fronts versus cool fronts now. These fishing tips can really give you the upper hand.

Fishing for Bass in Cold Fronts

Bass will sense the pressure change right before a cool front comes in. They don’t like to feed during cool fronts, so they’ll often feed heavily just before the front comes in. So if you can be on the water a couple of hours before the front hits, you should see some great bass activity.

I have had a time awhile ago where I distinctly remember being tardy to an incoming cool front. I got out there just before the front, caught a fish or two, and then the fishing just went totally dead. Nothing doing. That was it for that time. If only I had been there a couple hours earlier, I could have knocked them dead.

Fishing for Bass During Warm Fronts

If you are fishing during winter, and a warm front comes in for a few days, and warms up the water near the surface, you stand a significantly good opportunity to catch fish. The bass will come up from the deep water and feed in the shallow water while the water is warm. This is typically a much better opportunity for fisherman because of the shallow vegetation and ability to use most any kind of lure desired.

But, a warm front that comes in during the summer can work against you. If the water temperature pushes above 80 degrees, the bass will go for deeper, colder water, or will get lethargic and not willing to take the bait you present to them. So take advantage of these bass fishing tips and catch more bass now!
