I fished Kinkaid on 1-13-2021. Partly sunny skies with 10-15 mph winds S/SW. Water temps were 39-41 with 3-6 foot visibility. Shad are deep in 25-40 feet. Caught bass on jerkbaits and finesse football jigs on secondary points. Hard bottom and wood was key.

I fished Kinkaid for a few hours on New Years Day 2021. Air temps were high 30's. Wind was 10-15 out of the SW. It was overcast with light rain and drizzle. Water temps were 42 with 5 foot visibility in the main lake island area. Fishing was slow. In about 3 hours I caught a 48"-50" muskie on a Jackall Rerange jerkbait and a 17" largemouth on a French Pearl jerkbait. I targeted points.
