CLARK HILL IS DOWN 1.5 FEET, UPPER 50’S

Bass fishing is slow. The super muddy water has slowed fishing but there are still options. Some good fish are being caught in shallow water from 2 to 4 feet. Look for current breaks at the mouths of both rivers but try to avoid heavy mud. The fish are grouping up in the slack water behind islands and points on the main part of the rivers and in the backwaters. Fish a Spro Little John in Old Fire tiger or Chartreuse with black back. Use a slow retrieve, as the fish are a little finicky with the cold water. If the cranking bite slows down, switch to a Texas rig in the same areas. Use 20 pound fluorocarbon a good stiff and sensitive rod and 3/16 ounce black Tru Tungsten, a 4/0 offset shank Gamakatsu hook. Add your favorite Zoom u tail or lizard in black. Fish super slow in the areas where you find fish. With the runoff dominating look for the grass to start dying off and the shallow cranking bite will turn on better. At that time, use a Spro Aruku Shad 75 in Red Crawfish over the tops of the milfoil and hydrilla. Another pattern that will soon be on fire is flipping dead hyacinths in the backwaters of the rivers with a 4" Big Bite Baits Yo Mamma in Hematoma color.
