CrappieTechniqueCrappie Sniping (Casting/Single Poling)SeasonSpring (Spawn)StructurePointsMyself and a friend were fishing the upper part of Falls Lake today! We probably caught around 10-12 fish between the two of us! We caught several crappie, white bass, and one small catfish! We were both using primarily using Johnson Beatle Spins! White & Orange were the hottest colors!!

Largemouth BassTechniqueHard Topwater (Popping)SeasonSpring (Spawn)StructureSubmerged VegetationThe top water bite has been on fire close to the bank. Every other cast fish are coming up to hit the popping bait. Also had several chain pickerel and largemouth bass follow up a glide bait. Fun few days out on the bank.

Fish had left the shallows due to a cold front. Caught some fish on a strike king jerkbait. As the water got warmer throughout the week we started catching fish flipping shallow wood with a rage bug.

Fish are extremely shallow and are cruising the banks. Had a lot of hits from small bass and crappie. Great day!

I caught plenty of bass. Run the the bank throwing a spinnerbait. It was a cloudy day with some light wind which made it perfect conditions for throwing a spinnerbait.

I started the morning throwing a spinnerbait with a Keitech 3.8 as a trailer. I was targeting laydowns in the mouths of coves where pre-spawn females were waiting to move back and spawn. Once the sun came up the spinnerbait bait died. I began throwing a shakey head farther back in the coves and caught a bunch of males that were already up making beds.
SpeciesLargemouth BassTechniqueShakey HeadsSeasonSpring (Pre-Spawn)StructureLaydownsWe began the day throwing a spinnerbait around shallow wood before the sun came up. Once the sun came up the spinnerbait bite died. We tried fishing points on the way into spawning coves with little luck. After this, we moved back into the spawning coves and started throwing a shakey head. We caught males up very shallow and larger females on small points in the spawning coves. We ended up catching about 30 bass with our best 5 weighing 19 lbs. The majority of which came on the T-Mac worm.

Tough day by the water, bites were far and few between. Caught a couple by the falls lake dam in some rocks on a wacky setup.
