Largemouth BassTechniqueSpinnerbaitsSeasonWinterStructurePointsWe recently placed 2nd in the Clarks Hill Classic throwing a mixture of spinnerbaits and chatter baits on submerged rocks and muddy water points. Early in the morning we targeted rocks located in slightly warmer water with spinnerbaits and chatter baits. These rocks hold heat throughout the night from the sun the day before. This can often produce some good bites early in the morning when water is typically in the lower 50's. Once the water temp began to rise, we transitioned to points where the wind and waves had created a few feet of muddy water along the bank. We were able to catch numerous three pound + fish out of these mud lines. This tactic also produced our biggest bass of the day which weighed in at 5.1lb.

Most bites were on main lake humps. Fish on bottom came off of a jig. All other bites came on the lipless. Either either yo-yoing or quick reeling with random pops.

The lake is about 6 feet low and has almost finished turning over. There’s bait fish everywhere in the creeks, and the bite is tough there. Bites are still coming pretty easy on brush piles on the main lake.
