I don't know much about Large Mouth Bass fishing, but what does "Staging" mean? I'm LMB stupid!

As waters warm up, Bass will move into shallow water (stage) and go into a pre-spawn mode. Males will stake territory, build nests and try to attract a female to mate with. They're vulnerable as they'll attack anything to protect their spot as well as feed coming out of winter. It's a great time for some of the best quality bass fishing in the Country.
