Bass (fish)

: bass) is a common name shared by many species of ray-finned fish from the large clade Percomorpha, mainly belonging to the orders Perciformes and Moroniformes, encompassing both freshwater and marine species.

The word bass comes from Middle English bars, meaning "perch",[1] despite that none of the commonly referred bass species belong to the perch family Percidae.

In the country, largemouth bass are often found in lakes, rivers, creeks, and dams.

Lures that mimic baitfish, worms, crayfish, frogs, and mice are all effective.

[4] In open water, lures that cover the water quickly such as spoons, spinners and lipless crankbaits[5] During the fall and winter months, bass will be less active and eat less.
