LAKE HARTWELL IS DOWN 7.1 FEET, CLEAR, 70’S

This bass fishing report is from Josh Panyard

Bass fishing is good. The fish are starting shallow first thing in the morning. Try top water baits or a fluke for the first couple of hours at the shallowest part of the points or back in the pockets and the back of the creek arms. Look to fish the flats back in the creek arms with a lipless crank bait there threadfin back in these pockets watch for them getting chased and throw to those areas. Once the sun gets up pay attention to what depth the bait is hanging out in. Once you figure that out fish that depth on any points, humps, or channel swings near the bait. Key baits here are a jig or a shaky head. The other key is finding the cover in these areas specially any brush that seems to be key. The upper river arms have started the turnover process so if you are fishing in these areas be patient the bite is a little tougher in these areas right now. Remember if you don't get bit within the first few casts keep moving until you find the fish. Be safe out there and hope to see you on the water.

SONAR TIPS: The Lowrance FLASHER mode along with the full LCR Screen, is the old style Flasher. Many anglers still use this function as well as the AMPLITUDE SCOPE. This function allows anglers to watch their bait in the water column.
