LAKE RUSSELL IS FULL, CLEAR & 52 DEGREES

Bass fishing is fair and secondary points seem to be the pattern. Be sure to get to the backs of the coves that have the highest concentration of bait. Use shallow to medium diving crank baits on the secondary points lake wide. The best ones to fish will be the ones with rock and sand in combinations. The #5 Shad Raps along with a Rapala DT6 has been the best baits. Some fish are after Chatter Baits in all white with a little chartreuse on the skirt. The bigger bass last week want the small cranks and hit any rip rap. The sun should shine this weekend and the rip rap at the 72 bridge just might be worth checking out with the RS Shad Raps and the DT10's.
