spring fishing

Seasonal thaw casting

Spring fishing is angling during the spring season, when warming waters trigger increased fish activity and feeding after winter dormancy.

Many anglers consider it prime time for certain species: The bass bite picks up once spring fishing season starts.

The term also refers to fishing in natural springs, where consistent water temperatures attract fish year-round.
