Bassmasters 2000 for N64 Hints and Tips

Early morning: Stay near the north shore and the shallow water. The game will 
start very close to a good spot. Slowly pull up a bit to find a lot fish. 

Midmorning: The north shore and vicinity are good places. Stay in the shallows in 
the morning. Water over hard and rocky ground is a bass favorite. The small 
inlets may also have some good fishing. 

Afternoon: The bass will tend to go near docks, poles, clusters of rocks, and 
sharp drops in depth. 

Early Morning: The shallows will warm up first in the morning and attract the 
fish. Most of the shore and the area around the small islands is shallow. The 
south shore is a good place to fish. 

Midmorning: The three small islands and the north side of the lake, directly 
opposite those islands are good places to fish. 

Afternoon: Fish in the locations from the morning and midmorning hours. 

Early Morning: This lake has a shallow shoreline, with most of the remaining area 
very deep. Try fishing in the northern recesses, as well as in the muddy shallows 
at the northeast side of the lake. 

Midmorning: Try the shallow areas with structure, such as up north. The bass can 
also be found just beyond the shallows where a steep drop-off separates it from 
the deep water. 

Afternoon: Use your fish finder to search for bass. Stop as soon as soon as 
possible, look at the depth reading, and select the correct lures. 

Steady - Retrieve your lures steadily in clear water and on sunny days, as well 
as when you need to quickly look around.

Erratic - Jerk the line from side to side to create movement while reeling in a 
loud spinnerbait or topwater lure in muddy or overcast conditions.

Hopping - Pull sharply on the line to hop a topwater lure along the surface or to 
pop a plastic or jig along the bottom of the lake.
