Bass tidbit

[Buddy Sanders]

Doug,

I've heard that the most prevalent reason for that 'tea' color is tanin staining from either vegetation or the soil. None of that around me, but I have been lucky enough to fish a couple of places that have it in the South.

THOSE waters are 'ideal' bass habitat. Just enough 'color' to reduce sunlight penetration, but clear enough for the bass to hunt efficiently.

Good Luck!

I like clear because I like to see the fish, but stained is good too.

As long as it is wet, we'll fish it. We pretty much only top-water for LM's anyway.
