LAKE SINCLAIR IS FULL, 84 DEGREES, STAINED UP RIVER, MAIN LAKE CLEAR

Bass fishing is good. The cool weather has kept a lot of fish shallow lake wide. Fish can be caught anywhere from main lake sea walls and points all the way back to the back ends of creeks and pockets. Bigger fish seem to be relating to bream around grass beds and in short pockets off the main river. These quality fish can be caught on a Bass Hound Crank bait’ Main Event prop bait in a bream color fished aggressively around the grass and old bream beds. A square bill crank bait and a Buckeye Mop Jig will also catch some quality fish in these same areas. An early fall pattern is starting to show up as the shad have started moving back in the creeks. Use your Lowrance electronics to find these concentrations of shad. Numbers of fish can be found following the shad around the points and flats at the mouths of the creeks. A small Lucky Craft Sammy and a Zoom Super Fluke in shad patterns will catch these fish that are following the shad. Small shad colored crank baits and small Alabama rigs thrown across these main creek points will also produce a good many bites. The clearer water down lake seems to be best for numbers of fish and fishing that early fall pattern. The stained water from mid lake up both rivers has been best for quality bites.
