do bass jump out of the water….and if so…under what circumstances thanks

This is an interesting question that very few bass fishing enthusiasts, whether beginners or advanced experts think to ask, although it is one that may prove to be very interesting to you when I give you the answer because it can indeed help you to strategize! Knowing all about bass can enable you to devise a plan that will increase the numbers you catch on the average bass fishing trip, and whether or not they jump can aid you! The answer is no, bass do not jump. They are not like salmon in that they leave the water, although they may surface from time to time to take a bite if there is something that they feel they might like to eat just floating on the surface. This is why some bass fishing enthusiasts often allow their bait to rest on or just below the surface from time to time. This can be done on warm days when bass are more likely to be nearer the surface, or when the sun is very strong and you are using some sort of metallic bait so it will attract the attention of the bass. However, bass will never come to the surface in winter. As they are cold blooded creatures, they will go deeper and hide in pools and nooks to help them to avoid the coldest waters. That is the time of year that you want to fish a little deeper instead. The information outlined above can help you to come up with a few ways to improve the numbers of bass you catch! Be creative and try plenty of things, but bear in mind that bass, like white men, can’t jump!
