JACKSON LAKE IS DOWN 2.1 FEET, STAINED & MID SIXTIES

Bass fishing is fair. More fish continue to move toward the banks and shallows as spring approaches. At present, most fish are feeding along main lake points and banks, whether in the creeks or on the rivers. But this will change soon, possibly in the next few days if the air and water temperatures rise a few more degrees. Small to medium sized crank baits have been the most successful lures for the last week or more. Try the crank baits like a Bandit in 100, Bandit Flat Maxx, the old reliable #5 and #7 Shad Raps, the Norman Little N and Bomber Flat A. Some good colors are fire tiger, shad, and silver blue. Rat L Traps in one and 1/2 ounce sizes have also produced a few fish, but should get better as the water warms. Spinner baits have also caught a few fish in the same areas. Watch for rocky bottoms and concrete seawalls in these areas as the water temperature should be one or two degrees warmer. A few fish are already holding on docks, but even more will as fish begin moving away from the outer banks toward the spawning banks.
