Sea Bass Fishing Tips - How To Catch Sea Bass

The sea bass is a temperate marine species that inhabits irregular hard-bottom areas such as wrecks, reefs and rock outcroppings. Sea Bass are opportunistic feeders, eating whatever is available. They are particularly fond of crabs, shrimps, worms, clams, and small fishes. It's best to use medium-weight boat rods and reels with 15- to 20-pound test line. The typical bottom rig consists of two 4/0 to 6/0 hooks and an 8- to 10-ounce sinker. In shallower waters, anglers occasionally use light spinning tackle with spoons and jigs.
