DinkDonkey30 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 I listen to a lot of podcasts and do a fair amount of reading. I keep seeing and hearing about fishing blowdowns but no explanation of what that is. I’ve been taking a beating trying to catch smallies and largemouth in northern Indiana this year so I’m looking for information on what I may be missing or just new things/ techniques all together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Fishlegs Posted April 9 Solution Share Posted April 9 That typically means a tree that has fallen into the water. They make good places for fish to hang out. Here's a link to a thread from a while back with some discussion about how to approach them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DinkDonkey30 Posted April 9 Author Share Posted April 9 Ah I thought they were referring to wind blown points or something like that. I fish down trees a lot on the river with varing success. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fin Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Like @Fishlegs said, it’s a tree blown down into the water. Click on the menu (green button top left corner by the Bass Resource logo) then click on Tools. There’s a glossary in there and some other things you might find helpful. Blowdown is missing from the list, but there are some other words you might be wondering about. If that list covered just the words used on this site, it would be huge. And lots of people use different words to say the same thing. Laydown is one phrase I’ve heard used for blowdown. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super User Bird Posted April 9 Super User Share Posted April 9 Blow down is a tree / wood and the very best largemouth cover where I fish. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
