It’s a mental block, I also grew up fishing farm ponds and small lakes and the shallows on big lakes, thinking bass are shallow water loaner fish that only relate to cover, but it’s just not true, bass are deep water school fish that require no cover! Even the times the bass are in less that ten feet of water they still are in schools and they are not relating to cover but to structure, the bottom of the lake. Only small bass need cover for survival. Sometimes they suspend and don’t relate to the bottom, but they will be relating to some kind of structure! Like I say it’s a mental block, why do imagine that a school of bass located a at 60 feet Depth is deep? 60 feet is not deep, but you imagine it is very deep, because you don’t relate it to anything, most bass boats today are 20 feet long so we’re only talking 3 boat lengths!

Talking about your real life experience

What are you talking about. No of what you are posting is scientific fact or even remotely correct.

I've always heard Buck Perry was a very adept fisherman but I didn't realize he was a scientist.

Your free to be an ignorant bumpkin there’s no law against that, IF you never Fish deeper than ten feet Deep in a 40 feet deep lake then you can only encounter 5 percent of the fish in that lake! Ignorance is bliss! Some people are happy with very low percentages and low success rates! More power to ya! I want the high percentage and high success rates! Even I a shallow lake like okeechobee fl. There are thousands of schools of 10 pound size bass each school having hundreds of fish way out in the deepest open water with no cover ! And that lake is almost a half a million acres!

they gots fins so they swims around.

All fish live in schools! There more educated than most jerkbait anglers on this forum! Lol

This changes everything... all of my tackle is worthless. Im buying as many little georges as possible. Thank GAWD for "george Perry".

Im a Football coach, and based on this logic, Im also throwing out my RPO playbook and going back to the Wing T. Information from 20 years ago is so much better.

And remember, rotary phones will ALWAYS be your best option. Only 5% of largemouth people use cell phones.

The fish don’t change! They still relate to structure and school in deep water! That’s a fact! But you just keep busting the banks for The 5 percent And leave the 95 percent To real fishermen!

Not anymore, Im out deep from now on!

I love me some rip rap in 60' of water. A little 1" white grub on a 1/125th oz jighead thrown on unicorn hair 2lb test line and the finest Corinthian woven graphite rod will catch all the 10" bass a man could dream of. Just gotta make sure that rip rap is in ultra deep water as we all know bass hate shallow water. They hate it like peanut butter hates jelly.

There's gonna be a day when Gruber reveals himself...greatest troll there has been on TFF in quite some time

Either the greatest troll or the most clueless

For sure. I guess those elite bassmaster guys winning tournaments in a foot of water are all dumb country bumpkins.

He is funny, I get a kick out of his content. I wonder if his inconsistency is intentional, or if he forgets what he said on other posts? Regardless, he is entertaining. The only thing more entertaining are the guys who think he is serious. But I wonder if he is also the guys who seem to think he is serious. That too is genius. Its gotta be hard to keep all those personas straight.
