Largemouth BassTechniqueLipless CrankbaitsSeasonWinterStructureRock PileFishing very shallow around flats with sand and boulders. The lake was down around 6ft. Most of the fish were in less than 3ft of water. Positive trends in the weather caused the fish to move to the spawning areas to feed up for the spawn.
SpeciesLargemouth BassTechniqueHard JerkbaitsSeasonSpring (Post-Spawn)StructurePointsLots o lots to report. The lake is fishing well from top to bottom. People are catching fish across the lake, on all the baits listed here. Spots are up and chewing, water temps are right to really get them moving. Largies are mostly post spawn and roaming, finding the right ones are critical to winning events. In some parts fish are still in the back, in other in the middle, and others in the front. There is something for everyone. Although I don’t have it listed there is also a good wacky rig bite.
SpeciesLargemouth BassTechniqueHard JerkbaitsSeasonSpring (Post-Spawn)StructurePointsLargemouth that are currently post spawn are actively roaming, reacting to shallow water tactics with jerk baits playing a good role. Some schooling activity can be found on the lake, but it’s mostly hybrids and smaller spots, however there are some schools of largemouth.

The cruisers that were shallow pulled off in the cold nights and have to be found. Fish are still relating to points, mixed largemouth and spots. Blueback are being found selectively, but this should increase in the coming 1-2 weeks
