LAKE CLARKS HILL IS DOWN 3.5 FEET, 51 DEGREES AND STAINED

Bass fishing is getting better and the water temperature is climbing into the 50's by late afternoon. Blue back herring are getting active now and anglers are already using the XR10 X-Raps in the glass ghost and olive green colors. These baits seem to be working on the small flats and main lake wind blown points. Also, Tom Hall said do not forget the 1/2 ounce white Strike King spinner bait along those small rocky bottoms. Fish it around any and all lay downs in the rivers and creeks. Up in Little River use a crank bait and a Rapala DT6 in hot mustard and brown bone colors will get action. Also take along a 3/8 ounce jig and pick apart the brush piles. Rat L traps are just now starting to catch a few bass and expect this bait to really pick up over the next few weeks. The best feeding time this weekend will occur between 1:30 p.m. and 3:10 p.m. Allow a thirty minute lead way on both sides. Weather and fronts can also affect any and all feeding times. The Fish and Game Forecaster has good feeding periods from 10am until 1pm Saturday and 11am until 2 pm Sunday. Get your own copy from our web site. There is a bass tournament for the American Cancer Society on May 15 2010 at Wildwood Park at Clarks Hill. Call John Boy Long, 706-210-2893.
