In this article, I will describe the most effective styles of crankbaits for catching bass of the beginning of the season. If you fishing for big or small mouth bass certain styles of crankbaits perform better early season than others. When I refer to the expression "early season bass fishing" referring specifically to months late March, April, may and early June.
The three styles of crankbaits to be discussed should be a part of the Repertoire of any serious bass fishermen. A key to remember is that bass does not become truly "aggressive" until the water temperature reaches 55 degrees or more, so keep an eye on the temperature of the water is a must in the spring of the year. The highlight of spring feeding normally occurs when the temperature of the water entering the Decade of 60, to make sure that you are aware of this simple fact. Water cooler temperatures mean that early season bass fishing must be done with a slow down in most cases.
Bass is more sluggish early in the season so slowed presentations seem to be much more effective. The bottom line is that these three crankbaits styles need to be in you tackle box when fishing for bass in the early season.
Imitation lobster-during the spring of the year lobsters are a favorite food for bass (both large and smallmouth) moving from their winter feeding area for the Clipboard and eventually to the shallow flats. Imitation lobster crankbaits are very effective for catching bass of the beginning of the season. Lipless crankbaits Swimbaits-Lipless Swimbaits are excellent for use in shallow waters at the beginning of the season. In shallow water the water temperatures increase faster than in deeper waters (obviously) which is very productive in shallow water fishing for bass in the spring of the year. If you want to catch bass early season bait to swim lipless crankbait is an excellent choice. Try to use colors that are similar to a lobster, though the swim bait itself can mimic a baitfish. Patterns of red, Brown and black are great options for swimming lures early in the low season.
Deep diving Crankbaits-deep diving crankbaits can be very effective down early in the season. A key is to fish in 8-12 feet of water and ' drag ' the lip at the bottom as it is crankbait recovered. This action ' digging ' unleashes many hunger strikes. For example, if you are fishing in 10 feet of water, use deep diving crankbait diving to 16 feet. This will ensure that you ' drag ' the bait on the bottom during his recovery.
These three styles of crankbaits should be a part of the arsenal of early season low any serious fisherman. If one of these styles is not in your crankbait, box tackle adding it sooner rather than later, you will certainly be glad that you did.

In searching for paddles, only two things come out. That is a paddle used to push a boat or the one the paddle that help mix the ingredients. However, if we search on specific term like crawfish paddles we will be directly directed to paddles that are used for cooking - helps in stirring the ingredients just like the second one search result. Well, that is what exactly we are looking for. Now, can anybody just use paddles for cooking foods? Of course, yes but it is best if we use the equipment that best fit to what we are cooking and where we are cooking it. Just like if we are boiling crawfish, it is best if we use crawfish paddles. This is the paddle that is specially made for boiled crawfish. In that case, what are paddles best fit for what cooking equipment?
The answer for that question is this, in boiling; big pots are best paired with long paddles. It is to mix well the ingredients and seasoning till to the bottom of the pot. Just like when you have a 100 qt. Aluminum stock pot, the best paddle for that is the 35-inch wooden paddle or larger than that would be better. Large paddles are just enough for big pots. The wooden paddle is good for your Aluminum stock pots to avoid scratches. In fact, it is one way of protecting your equipment.
No worries if you have stainless steel paddles for they can still be use. You just need a little extra care in stirring though. However, there are pots that are not easily scratched like stainless steel stock pots. I have heard also that they can last a lifetime if cared well. It just means that they fit for each other.
Paddles are not really hard to find but most of the time are neglected. They are very cheap compared to other cooking equipments. The wooden paddle prices range from $3.00 being the smallest and the cheapest to $14.00. On the other hand, stainless steel paddle prices range from $8.00 to $31.00. Their prices actually vary on their sizes, durability and on what they are made of. Of course, we can expect that the most expensive one is the best one most of the time.
I am sure that whichever you choose from them, you are assured that you can stir your food well. We all know that the taste of your food does not depend on your paddles but paddles leads every ingredient to mix well with other ingredients to result the desirable taste. So, it may not depend but paddles can be a factor of good taste too.
No matter how long your crawfish paddle is, just make sure to use it in the right size of pot or pan. Just like outfits, cooking must be mix and match with too. The next time you buy, you better pick the paddle that you can depend on your cooking. Otherwise, just get all paddle sizes that you think you can use later.
Ralph Crow discovered an aluminum stock pots that are superior to other aluminum stock pots because of the proper thickness all around, especially the bottom of the pot. These commercial grade aluminum pots are perfect for boiling crawfish, crabs, and other seafood. He found out it is exceptional!

-Smoked Sausage, cut into large chunks (optional)
-Set of mushrooms (optional)
-Red-Small Potatoes
-Corn on the cob-cut into sections

First, you will need to clean or wipe the lobsters. Some prefer to use salt to clean their lobsters. It is not necessary, but whatever is your preference. Dumps the lobsters in a large cooler.

Pour the bag of seasoning, or wait to season the water after you cook your potatoes and corn, if you don't like corn and potatoes extra spicy. Place the pan on the burner, plug a little gas, light the burner, then put the gas on high. Once the water boils put the potatoes. Verify that the potatoes. They should cook completely in about 30 minutes. When they are halfway done put in corn, along with the potatoes. This is also a good time to add optional ingredients such as sausage, lemons, garlic, mushrooms.
When the corn and potatoes are done remove them and other ingredients of the pot.
Now you can fill your basket with boiling lobsters and add that the Crawfish Boil seasoning to the water if you haven't already. Once the water returns to a boil put the lobster basket in the pot. Cook lobsters until the water returns to a boil then remove them.

Some find them frightening and Squeal in fear, while others find them flavorful and can't wait to get your hands (or should I say taste buds) around them. They are found around the world in freshwater streams, lakes and rivers, hiding under rocks or burrowed down in the mud. In the United States are known by many names: Norway lobster in the North, crawdads in more parts of the Central and Eastern United States and ormudbugs of lobsters in the South. Australians call yabbies, while the Spanish know them as cangrejo de río or river crab.
Whatever you call them, lobsters are eaten worldwide and have become an important part of the culinary culture of the southern United States, most especially Louisiana. Louisiana is in fact the largest lobster production State in the United States, responsible for about 98% of u.s. production of lobsters. Louisiana is also the greatest eating lobsters and Union State consumes about 70% of what it produces.
Lobsters are closely related to spiny lobsters, but compared to its much larger adult relatives, lobsters are very small, usually not exceeding 7 inches. Only a small part of the lobster is actually edible. In most dishes or soups, is served only the tail. Some lobsters, however, have claws big enough to make the extraction of meat is worth the effort. The most famous eating them however is the Crawfish Boil-piles of lobsters all mixed temperate bodywork with boiled potatoes and corn on the cob. When crawfish are boiled, in this way, a lot of tasty seasonings installs itself into fat head cavity. For some people, particularly Louisianans, this is the best part! They even have a saying to him, "suck the head; Pinch the tail ".
So what about the health benefits of lobsters? While they aren't soaked in butter (like crab meat is often), crustaceans such as lobsters are very low in fat (only 1 g 3 oz per serving), are an excellent source of protein (15 g 3 oz per serving) and are low in calories. Crustaceans and molluscs are also low in saturated fat, high in HDL cholesterol (which is the good cholesterol) and are a good source of zinc, manganese, phosphorus, vitamin B12 and other vitamins and minerals. A study by the University of Southern California discovered that the weekly consumption of seafood has reduced heart attack at 59%!
The next time you're looking for a healthy snack or a new recipe, don't let the bestial mudbug scare you. Its health benefits are too beautiful to ignore.
