Largemouth BassTechniqueLipless CrankbaitsSeasonWinterStructureDamIt can be extremely hard to catch bass around the discharge in the winter. Many use minnows. I like to try artificial, so I tried ripping a bluegill colored lipless bait to try to draw a reaction and it worked! It was the earliest in the year I had ever caught a bass and I would definitely recommend it!

The fish are getting more active and the shallow fishing is getting better! Bladed jigs with craw trailers (Riot Baits little fuzzy) were working great with their ability to fish fast and slow. Laydowns in or near deeper water are good areas to target, don’t forget to slow down and cover them well.

Fished today with a whopper plopper and a chatterbait. The bluegill colored chatterbait hooked a largemouth, but I didn't set the hook and it got away. Not too many other bites today, lots of other bank anglers out today too.

Took the W at high school sectionals today! It was a cooler day with sporadic rain and full clouds the whole time. We found em in the offshore vegetation eating black and blue chatterbaits

Fish are biting walking baits and buzzbaits great right now. With the grass getting more dense a lot of shallow targets are out of play so look for stumps and other structure further out.

The tried and true Texas rig on a 5” yum dinger. The best fish magnet on the market. This catch was weightless but I usually use a 3/16 bullet weight.
