What does the term "turnover" mean and what does this have to do with fishing for bass. :-?

When the water is the same temperature from the top to the bottom. No thermocline , which makes it harder to locate bass , they are usually scattered all over the lake.

I'm sure someone can give a better techinal report then I just did.

Hahaha! thanks, I have never heard the term until lately. So in the summer the bass are where in the lake and where are they in the winter?

Summertime look for structure and cover.

Winter most  of the time they will be in deep water.

This is short version to your questions.

There are articals on fishing the differant seasons on the home page.

Welcome to the board.

This is a great question to check out the search feature on. Lots of previous discussion.

Also, Google "lake turnover" for a basic definition.
