CLARKS HILL IS DOWN 1.28 FEET, 80’S


Bass fishing is slow. The water and air temperatures remain high. The big bass for the most part, have resorted to deeper water during the day and finding the thermocline will be a must. Now is a good time to use a drop shot rig. Use a slow presentation on both the drop shot and Carolina rigs. Some bass are still coming off the main lake points early and then again late in the evening. Slow cranking a Rapala #5 and # 7 Shad Rap or a Rapala DT10 on the sides of points will catch the larger bass that move up to feed. Use Sufix ten pound test line and allow the baits to dig into the bottom and bounce off the "rocks" from time to time. A stop and go presentation is a good technique to use under these harsh fishing conditions. Any current up lake on the sides of the points and isolated pockets with mid day shade is another good idea while searching.
