CLARKS HILL IS DOWN 6.4 FEET, 80’S


Bass fishing is fair this week and water temperatures continue to rise and the bass are getting very sluggish. Early in the morning, bass will be feeding and chasing Shad and Herring to the surface. A silver and blue or a shad colored Skitter Pop or a Shad colored Skitter Walk on ten or twelve pound test will catch these fish. Humps and points are the best places to find breaking fish early in the morning. Sub surface hydrilla near these locations is holding the bait until they are spooked out. The channel ledges are still a late day favorite as anglers continue to pick them apart after about 10:00 a.m. Number 12 Husky Jerks and the Down Deep Husky Jerks worked parallel on the ledges with an occasional pause will get you a strike. Try cranking these baits down then either use a slow, steady retrieve or a stop, go and jerk method. These two retrieves seem to be working the best.
