LAKE HARTWELL IS DOWN 3.3 FEET & LOW 50’S

Bass fishing is fair up lake and spinner baits and bright crank baits are working. Anglers learned a lot as the Bass Masters Classic demonstrated big bass can bite in cold water. Everyone needs to rely on their four favorites baits and be sure to add the Super Spin and Fluke trailer to the list. Down lake fishing is fair on humps and points in the creeks. Use crank baits, jigs and worms. Go to the mouths of the main lake creeks and humps and use blue and silver crank baits. We see a lot of boats using the Alabama rigs with small grubs and small swim bait this week during the FLW event. The backs of the lower lake creeks are stained but use the Stanley jigs in black and silver with a #11 Uncle Josh pork Trailer. Fish any bank cover all the way to the boat, working the lure’s slowly in cover. Find any warming water in the northwest cove’s later in the afternoons. Try slow trolling the creeks with Shad Raps on 10 pound test line.
