LAKE
GEORGE/EUFAULA IS
FULL AND 77 DEGREES & STAINED
UP NORTH AND CLEAR DOWN SOUTH BY CLAYTON BATTS
Bass fishing is good. The water temperature is staying pretty
stable with the weather. The shallow water bite has been the deal
with the cooler water temperatures. The best bite has been shallow
but there is also some action on main lake ledges and creek ledges.
There are many different options if you decide to fish shallow
with the main key being covering water until you find the bait
and fish with a variety of baits depending on the weather and what
kind of cover you are fishing. The best big fish pattern has been
throwing a Big Bite Baits Top Toad in green pumpkin pearl, a Natural
Red Spro popping frog all day on the North end of the lake around
Cowikee Creek and the River Bend area in the pad fields and isolated
grass beds. When the wind gets up throw a white and chartreuse
Picasso spinnerbait on wind blown grass points. The frog bite and
spinnerbait bite has been great until blue bird skies appear and
the best option becomes flipping a Big Bite Baits Fighting Frog
in black blue around pads and in the mats that are at the mouths
of pockets. If the spinnerbait bite disappears and there is no
wind throw a Rick Clunn Lucky Craft RC1.5 in chart root beer. If
you decide to go out and fish the ledges use your Lowrance electronics
and find the bait starting with the ledges that lead back into
the larger creeks to find out where the bait is. If there is no
bait, there will be no fish. Search the ledges with a Spro Little
John DD in nasty shad or Citrus Shad on 10 pound GAMMA Fluorocarbon.
The weight transfer lets you cast it a mile which is important
in the recent wind that we have been having. When you catch a fish
get back in there as soon as possible because they will be grouped
up. If the fish stop biting the crank bait change up a little and
throw a silver flutter spoon or a Spro bucktail jig in white or
white and chartreuse. To get the line go to www.gammafishing.com
