I went out to the lake with my buddy Luke on 01/31/24 from about 12:30 PM until dark. It was a partly cloudy day with outside temperatures in the low 70's and a slight 5 mph southwest breeze. Water temperatures on the lake ranged from 45-49 degrees and the water clarity ranged from 1-2 feet of visibility with a slight stain too it. We started the day up a little shallower throwing around chatterbaits and the new Strike King Gravel Dawg crankbait and caught 3 doing that. After 2 hours with only 3 bites, we then transitioned to fishing the deeper grass edge out in 6-14 feet of water with a jerkbait utilizing FFS to target individual bass or small groups of 2-5 bass on the grass edges, and were able to catch 6 more fish, with our best 5 for the day going at right around 17 pounds and our kicker fish being the 5.20 I caught that I have pictured with the report! South Lake is an incredible little winter and early spring lake and has always been one of my favorites, so if you know about this lake or follow along with it here, be sure and get out there when you can for some great winter fishing! Good luck and tight lines!
