Fish Oil Pill Hack: INSTANT Bass at Deer Lake BC (Paddleboard Fishing)

Bass fishing Deer Lake BC during an August heat wave was way tougher than I expected. The bass were glued under the lily pads in the shade and refused almost everything I threw, until I tried a fish oil pill hack and suddenly the bite turned on right at the end of the trip. I was out on my paddleboard with my girlfriend, and of course she still managed to catch a few without the trick because she is just built different.

I started with a big Senko and got bites but missed every fish that grabbed it. I switched to a finesse setup and it stayed quiet until I smeared the fish oil onto a soft plastic fluke. After I tuned my baitcaster so it finally stopped birdnesting, I hooked two largemouth fast and wrapped up the session.

If you fish Deer Lake Burnaby or any lily pad bass lakes in BC, this one might help you get bit when it feels dead.
