Bass fishing is good. These fish are being caught on a few different patterns. Docks and boat houses continue to hold fish, including some large bass. The key to success is finding the best baits and presentations of them. One bait and presentation may produce good results all day or a combination of 3 or 4 baits may be needed to catch a limit of quality fish. Crank baits of various styles and sizes can produce good results. Shad Raps or other flat sided, tight wobbling baits are good choices, especially during high pressure, post frontal conditions. Large, deeper running, and wide wobbling baits are sometimes the ticket. These baits can trigger strikes as they kick up bottom silt or glance off dock posts. On some days, suspending baits like a suspending Fat Free Shad or Shad Rap RS will generate bites as they suspend for a couple seconds beside dock posts or brush. Chartreuse combinations, shad patterns, and crawfish colored crank baits have produced recent success. Remember to use slow to medium speed retrieves in the cold water. Jigs, soft plastics, and spinner baits should also be tried. A 3/8 ounce Strike King Pro Model or other similar jig is a good choice. Try adding a Zoom Super or Pro Chunk threaded on the hook. Texas and Carolina rigged soft plastics are the ticket at times too. Rocky points and banks, rip rap, and private concrete boat ramps also offer places to find a few active fish. Crank baits are usually the first choice to try. Bass are also still holding in deeper water, some in larger coves and others on the main lake around points and humps. Spoons, tail spinners, crank baits, and jigs can produce well occasionally, but recently Carolina rigs, jig head and worm, and drop shot rigs have done better. Try using a Zoom Finesse worm in red bug or green pumpkin on any of the rigs.
