Smallmouth BassTechniqueUmbrella RigsSeasonWinterStructureBaitfishI was constantly scanning my forward-facing sonar left and right, I was looking for schools of bass. I wouldn’t even make a cast if I didn’t see them on my unit. The bass I was finding was in 5’-10’ of water on the flats that were close to deep water. These schools were moving looking for bait, if I could get my umbrella rig within 5’ of them they would attack! I ended the tournament with 14.67 pounds with a 5 fish limit. I had caught many other keepers prior to this 5 fish limit, the interesting part was all of them were over 2.8lbs with the largest being 4.1lbs. They seemed to be schooled by size for sure. The only bait I caught fish on that day was the Yum Yumbrella Umbrella Rig 5 Wire 5 Hook Ultralight with Keitech Fat Swing Impact 3.8” Sight Flash rigged up in the back. I was using 12# P-line Fluorocarbon line paired with my Daiwa Tatula and a 7-6” rod. Never caught a bighead but still managed a five fish bag over 14lbs.

Finding good keepers in the James and Baxter on main lake points that are on the opposite side of the river channel. Drag a jig or a worm in 15-25 feet with rock on it.

Spotted BassTechniqueDrop ShotSeasonSummerStructureStanding TimberOn mondays trip we targeted the mid lake section of Table Rock. We fished from Aunts Creek to Cow Creek. We caught the spots really well. The fish we in the trees and 28-32 fry seemed to be the sweet spot. We caught several out on the longer points but the trees definitely had the better quality. Several spots hit the deck that were in that 3 lb range! Get out there and enjoy it. It was hotter than hell but the fish but all day 👍.

Bass at night in 18-20 ft. Cast Texas Rigs near trees and let them sit on the bottom. The bass have been picky recently so make sure to let that bait sit in the brush pile and pick it up here and there. Do a lot of scanning around the lake to find the best piles
