LAKE RUSSELL IS FULL, CLEAR, 60’S

Bass fishing is fair. Cooler nights have made the Spotted Bass really active, especially along the Rocky Points and Banks. The top water baits are just now beginning to catch a few good Bass at different times during the day. Feeding fish are hitting Chug Bugs and Skitter Walks when fished over schools of active bait fish. Water temperatures are slowly dropping, so use the Rapala DT6 and the jointed Shad Raps with chartreuse in it is working best. Green tiger, parrot and the fire crawdad colors have been the colors that work best. This is the best time to take advantage of the Lowrance Down Scan technology and you can count the fish on the bottom. Shad is another good color to use while fishing the clear water around the rock on the 72 Bridge and South towards the dam. These fish are still easily spooked, so use no more than ten pound test line. Try the lighter Sufix Elite 10 pound test in the clear. This line is very abrasive resistant and disappears in the water.

Watch the Fish and Game Forecaster on my site and use the bigger baits when the peaks occur.
