Most flooded reservoirs have secret roadbeds, building foundations and other man-made structures hidden beneath the surface. The old town maps tucked away in the library are often the only way to find these bass magnets. If you are worrying about finding a hotel room for the evening, you can't concentrate on fishing. Doing some pre-visitation research allows you to book a hotel without enduring a frantic last minute race for an empty room. Practice Practice makes perfect.
Technique fishing is simply a time when an angler goes out to practice fishing techniques.
It can also be a time to try new baits or tune up old lures. But the object behind this sort of practice is to learn something new about bass or to improve upon a weak skill. After all, few people can pick up a flipping rod and pitch a jig under a boat dock. It takes practice and more practice, the type of practice the professional tournament anglers spend countless hours doing. Pre-tournament practice is a much different matter.
