LAKE RUSSELL IS DOWN .6 FEET, CLEAR, 60’S


Bass fishing is fair. A lot will change over this week with the cold weather. Once the weather settlers the fishing will be better but expect the fish will move deeper so water temperatures will be critical. Find the warmer waters. When it gets colder, use the .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. It may take several moves until you find the active fish on structure before getting bit. Run the side scan technology by these areas before fishing. The fish will show up as small white dots.
