WEST POINT LAKE IS DOWN 6.7 FEET, STAINED & 50’S


Bass fishing is fair. The weather will turn this week and the bass will head to deep water. The bass are on the deep stumps and wood on the creek bends down lake and are tight on cover. Look on the heavy brush on points and docks on the lake. Down lake, use the ½ ounce jig in black and blue or all black 1/2 ounce jig and a larger Pro Pork Trailer by Uncle Josh, on the heavy cover. The Zoom water melon seed lizards on a Carolina rig, is a good choice fished slowly. Try a .6 Flex It spoon in white or chartreuse prism on 12 to 14 pound test Sufix Elite line. Fishing line should be easily visible to help see the bites as the spoon is falling vertically. Use the Lowrance 200 kHz frequency and drop the spoon right under the transducer all the way to the bottom. Use short hops, not big jerks. You can watch the fish hit the spoon. On creeks on old channels, use a Culprit green shad worm on a Texas rig with the brass and glass combination. Work baits right on the bank around any cover. Later each day, work the creek banks and use a Shad Rap or a Rat L Trap in the shad colors casting anything to the bank cover.
