Mehr Science of the Strike

Science of the Strike is focused on taking an analytical, scientific approach to understanding the complex sport of largemouth bass fishing. Whether you're just starting out or a tournament veteran, we'll equip you with cutting-edge insights into bass behavior, feeding patterns, and the environmental factors that influence their every move. Join us as we decode the science behind every cast, unlocking the secrets to bigger and more consistent catches.

Episode 24: Fish Care

If you only listen to one episode of this show, we'd ask you to make it this one. Episode 24 is all about fish care when angling for largemouth bass. Fish care doesn't get the airtime that lure selection or pattern-of-the-week content does, but every fish you catch is a fish whose survival is at least partly in your hands, and most anglers, ourselves included, have been doing things wrong for years without realizing it. We get into largemouth handling from the ground up: where to grip, where not to, what a vertical hold actually does to a jaw, and why the "lip and support" rule exists. We talk about the slime coat: what it is, why it's the bass's first line of defense, and how a net or a boat's carpet can undo it in seconds. We cover livewell management in detail: temperature, oxygen, additives, what actually helps versus what's marketing, and how tournament fish end up dying hours after release, even when they swam off looking fine. Of all the episodes we have recorded and will ever record, we believe Episode 24 matters most.

Episode 23: Oliver Ngy

Episode 23 keeps the Experience vs. Science miniseries rolling, this time with the founder of Big Bass Dreams and a guy who's spent more time analyzing largemouth bass than most people will spend during their whole lives, Oliver Ngy. We sat down to figure out where his decades on the water line up with the peer-reviewed literature, and where the two camps quietly disagree. We get into angler pressure and what it actually does to a fish day-to-day, the murky and surprisingly contested question of largemouth memory (how much, how long, and whether "memory" is even the right word), what the wind is really doing when it kicks up your favorite bank, and a handful of other principles that explain a lot of what anglers usually chalk up to feel. Oliver brought the reps, and we brought the citations. The conversation went where most fishing talk doesn't: past the anecdote and into the mechanism.

Episode Episode 22: The Spawn - Part 2 Cover

Episode 22: The Spawn - Part 2

In the conclusion of our deep dive into the spawn, Episode 22 moves from the largemouth bass's internal biology to its external action. We explore the dramatic behavioral shift that occurs when a largemouth bass transitions from a nomadic hunter to a hyper-focused protector. Episode 22 breaks down the science of nesting behavior, explaining the specific environmental triggers that cause a bass to lock on to a piece of structure and the territorial psychology that makes them view anything entering their space as a threat rather than a meal. We also tackle one of the biggest mysteries of the spring: the dietary shutdown. Scientific observations show that as the spawn reaches its peak, a bass’s primary drive to feed is often overridden by the drive to defend. We’ll explain the difference between a feeding strike and a defensive strike, and why understanding this distinction is the key to triggering a bite from a fish that technically isn't looking for food. From the aggressive guarding of the fry to the post-spawn recovery phase where metabolism and appetite finally realign, we’re giving you the behavioral blueprint to master the most complex season in bass fishing.
