LAKE SINCLAIR IS DOWN 1.6 FEET, CLEAR, 70’S

Bass fishing is slow. The cold weather and falling water temperature will probably make shallow fishing much tougher. Crank baits and jigs had become the primary baits drawing strikes in shallow water. Most of these fish have been located in coves from the mouth to near the very backs. The fish that have moved toward the backs of coves are mostly near the center or basin. Some good cranking choices are Poe’s 300, Rapala DT10, Fat Free Shad #6, and Bandit Flat Maxx. The best colors have centered on chartreuse combinations like green tiger, Gable chartreuse, and fire tiger. The falling water temperatures will cause the bass to drop back to slightly deeper water in the same locations. Now use the same baits in deeper versions could be the answer. Jigs in a 3/8 ounce size will work around docks and other cover. Zoom’s Pro Chunk works well when added to the jig. With the water getting colder, fish both the crank baits and jigs very slowly. Carolina rigs fished in the same areas could get real good as bass become more sluggish.
