LAKE RUSSELL IS 1.6 FEET OVER FULL, STAINED & 50 DEGREES

Bass fishing is fair. Lots of rain has the lake slightly stained over the majority of the lake. Rocky points and banks are going to be your best producers especially those that blend into a mostly clay bank. The islands are also good bass producers during the cold months. There is a mud line caused by the rains. Use Rapala DT10 in a hot mustard or fire tiger color and fish every mud line. Big spots are roaming all over the lake and are looking for an easy meal. Keep a Flex It spoon ready in case there are any schools on the ledges and the Lowrance Structure Scan and Down Scan technology will make this easier.
