How to Fish a Rooster Tail for Largemouth Bass

I plan on chasing stripers right through the winter, but with November right around the corner, largemouth bass are now biting hard.

One of the simplest and most effective ways to catch a largemouth in a pond right now is to use what is known as a Rooster Tail.

Rooster Tails are great lures for kids to use, because the technique is so simple, and because they catch almost everything that swims in a freshwater pond on Cape Cod and elsewhere.

This week I was able to catch about a half dozen largemouths in 45 minutes of fishing by simply casting and retrieving a small Rooster Tail.

Also keep in mind that fall trout stockings are underway!

Our very own Steve Madden has been keeping us up-to-date on his freshwater trout fishing excursions with his recent forum posts, which you can view by clicking here.

Back on the saltwater scene, I am happy to report I was able to catch my first-ever Boston area stripers from shore just within the last 48 hours. 

I have a busy next 24 hours with the wedding and all, but I will do my best to get a post up soon about this latest adventure. ​
