Summer Bass go to school 

Summertime and the living is easy. In our part of the world, most of the “easy living” takes place behind four walls under air conditioning. It’s just too hot and muggy for outdoors activities and we resolve to wait for the first cool days of fall before taking to the woods and waters again. 

This can be tough on the bass fisherman who likes nothing more than practicing the art of “chunkin’ and windin’”. If you knew where you could catch some bass and be home before the sultry meltdown begins, would you be interested? I thought so. 

On many of our area lakes, summer time is bass schooling time. Pick a lake, river or stream that has bass and chances are, you’ll find bass chasing shad somewhere on the water.
