They are either restricted to a small Johnboat, or fish from the bank. The latter are often at a disadvantage. Usually they are denied most of the prime fishing areas. Some get mad, and others just quit fishing. But the true bass fisherman finds a way to get the bass.
Bank fishing can be a deadly way to catch bass.
I've bass fished from the bank most of my life, and have had tremendous success. I recently caught a twelve pound bass right on the bank. The bass was under a weed bed within casting distance. She had been busting some large minnows. I flipped my floating worm a foot past the disturbance.
