LAKE RUSSELL IS DOWN .69 FEET, CLEAR, 70’S

Bass fishing is slow lake wide as the weather make it tough with no wind and little feeding by the bass. The heavier the cover you can find the better. Way up in the Savannah River and in Beaverdam Creek are excellent all day areas. Flip or pitch the Stanley jig with a Zoom Salt trailer in green pumpkin into the cover and watch the line as it falls. The lighter the weight you can use, the better the results will be. Spotted bass along with some largemouth are holding tight to cover during the day. Down below the 72 Bridge, use a Rapala #5 Shad Rap and Rapala DT6 to crank the waters just off the rocky points. Bass are using these areas to stage and stay in cooler water. Try using long casts and slow retrieves. This is all it will take to trigger a strike. Early in the mornings and then again from around 7:00 p.m. until dark are the best times for using those crank baits. Carolina and Texas rigs that are fished very slowly along the bottom are the best choice during the mid day periods.
