Final Flight Outdoors

Watts Bar Lake (TN)

Final Flight Outdoors reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Deep Diving Crankbaits (13'+) technique and Shimano Curado DC Casting Reel on Watts Bar Lake. Additional comments from this report: "Fishing off shore schools. Crankbait provided the big bites. Seemed like you had to be making bottom contact to get bit. Took several cast sometimes to trigger a bite. I would switch up to a Neko rig and get a few more to commit when school would quit biting."

Reported by
Kent Mittelstaedt

Lake Eufaula (Walter F George) (AL, GA)

Kent Mittelstaedt reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Deep Diving Crankbaits (13'+) technique and Daiwa Tatula SV TW103 Casting Reel - EOL on Lake Eufaula (Walter F George). Additional comments from this report: "I fished a Bassmaster open on Eufaula in Early March. There were still some pre-spawn fish that were grouped up offshore that I was targeting with a Rapala DT-10 through a DT-16 depending on depth. Key areas were near spawning pockets on secondary points. If there was a ledge or a harder bottom spot, that made it even better. Livescope was critical to see where the groups of bass were, they were moving around following schools of shad. I was using a St Croix Legend Glass 7'4" MH Moderate, and the Mojo Bass Glass in the same action will be a good rod for it too. I used 12lb test Invizx line and gamakatsu size 4 round bend trebles. I liked the Disco Shad color in clear water and Caribbean in dirtier water. "
