With the warmer weather and possibly warm rains coming over Dale over the next few days, what would you suggest on methods (bait, areas to fish, etc)?? Going down with a buddy for a weekend of fishing. Will be coming out of Holly Creek

Jigs, Float n Fly, Grubs, Jerkbaits, Crankbaits in stained water.
Fish should be moving to secondary points in the creeks, and staging at the edge of some flats, possibly already moving up on the flats some. Seems like cloudy days are best right now in the clearer water.
And if your into live bait, shiners or shad is always good.
Hope ya have a good trip !

thanks for the advice.. its been about 6 months since I've been down.. Last time I was down, we caught most our smallmouth under our houseboat in holly creek on shiners.. Would prefer to catch fish without live bait but always take it just in case.
