Bird is the Word Bass Lures that Look Ready to Fly Away Yesterday I compiled a survey of anatomically-correct bird lures, some of which are readily available
Unlike spincast and spinning reels that have mechanisms that help you stop the line, with the baitcast reel, you stop the cast by pressing your thumb against the spool
Bass will follow them into these areas to feed
Spooling a reel correctly will avoid headaches on the next fishing trip
