What is skittering?
Suppose you’re in a fishing boat, and the water is just thick with weeds. It’s time to skitter.
Get yourself an old fashioned cane pole (or just any old pole and an equal amount of line). Attach a little bit of ‘bait’ on the hook such as a strip of fish belly, (or as in the old days – maybe a frog) and skitter it across broad openings in the weeds. If there’s a bass lurking in the weeds, he’ll jump at your skitter.
Skittering’s been around for ages simply because it’s an effective method of catching bass!
