LAKE HARTWELL IS DOWN 10 FEET, CLEAR, 84 DEGREES BY TIM WHITE, RAPALA PRO STAFF
Bass fishing is slowing down as the heat of summer returns. A
whole bunch of small Bass are being caught as anglers beat the
shallower water with their four and six inch worms. The bigger
and better Bass have moved out to the deeper water ledges and points.
Basically anglers are using two methods to catch their fish during
these conditions. A drop shot rig and Carolina rig are both responsible
for the majority of Bass being caught. Down sizing to a four inch
worm or lizard will get you a lot more bites. Also, tone down that
line to either eight or ten pound test. I am even using as low
as six pound test with a 1/8 ounce or smaller weight. The fish
aren't all giants, but a 2 1/2 pound average is usually winning
or placing in most of the tournaments. Scattered thunderstorms
are in the forecast for the weekend through Monday so as always
keep an eye on the sky.
