Spawning

Dictionary - S

The reproductive process of a fish where the female releases eggs into the water to be fertilized by the male.

The Skipper's Tip

Most often fishing seasons are closed to allow for spawning however going out and seeing where the fish spawn and what they eat with an underwater camera can help you to determine a strategy for when the season opens; just take extra care to leave your fishing gear at home and to not impact the spawning grounds with your boat/motor.
