LAKE SINCLAIR IS DOWN 2.1 FEET, CLEAR, 70’S

Bass fishing is fair. These fish are small and shallow at 2 to 8 feet deep. Most fish are located in coves and creeks all over the lake. Top water baits continue to produce a few fish on some mornings, although this bite has slowed somewhat. Buzz baits, Pop R’s, Chug Bug’s, and Torpedo’s are good choices to find out if bass are eating on top. Spinner baits have produced well recently, especially in the dirtier water. Try a Stanley bait in a 3/8 ounce size with double Colorado blades, one nickel and one gold. A chartreuse and white bait works well, along with solid white or solid chartreuse. A bite can occur most anywhere, but the bait really shines when targeting wood cover. A smaller Rat L Trap is catching fish along seawalls and across shallow secondary points and flats. Chrome blue is the best choice with the sun shining, while gold or a shad pattern is good during low light conditions. This pattern also seems to work best with the wind blowing. Docks and boat houses are holding fish that are hitting crank baits, jigs, and soft plastics.
