Early Spring. <sturdy>strong>Springtime, just prior to the spawn (in Italy, this normally happens from April to June, relying on the climate and location), is fantastic bass action. I fish mostly using spinnerbaits or crankbaits in spg because bass are typically hard to locate and capture with various methods. I prefer bass fishing in rivers in spring due to the fact I assume big catfish are easier to find and capture then and there. My first preference is a spinnerbait. A 1/4 oz. model using solitary gold Co sharp edge and fire tiger or bright white skirts. The slender profile of this spinnerbait, along with its slow fall, appears irresistible to Italian bass, especially the big ones. Crankbaits are another lure I love to use in early spring because, like spinnerbait, it is a reflex bait and allows me to fish more water. I like the plastic cramkbait models with built-in rattlers in spring, with chartreuse/blue or a fire tiger color pattern. Plastic crankbaits are louder than wooden ones and I think they draw more strikes when bass not relating to a specific kind of structure or cover.

Late Spring/Summer. .<strong>strong>Because in Italy angling for spawning bass is not allowed, we have to delay right up until the middle of June to commence to fish. Late spg and summer season may be fished in a similar way because bass, in the course of the hot,} nights tend to bury themselves in each piece of cover available in the water. For this main reason, flipping is the greatest method In warm water, I prefer to flip vegetation like bulrushes and cat tails. I think these are the best summer cover available for the biggest bass because of plenty of oxygen and baitfish. Even the jig-and-frog represent a good choice for summer bassing. You don’t have a lot of strikes as you could have with the plastic worm but you will catch quality fish. In Italy, bass don’t reach huge size like in the U.S.A. but a four or five-pounder it’s not too hard to catch, especially with the jig-and-frog.
