LAKE
RUSSELL IS DOWN 2.8 FEET, 45 DEGREES AND STAINED
Bass fishing
is still sow but it is about to warm up. Bass have bunched up
and built a fire on the old ponds dams and the road beds. They
are slow to react to anything and fishing is almost at a standstill
with the weather. Try a spoon in the trees or on the under water
humps and dams, but don’t expect much. Winds
have been high and have churned up the waters all over the lake.
The jigs and spoons are fair and later in the day go to a crawfish
colored crank bait. Keep the 1/2 ounce Hopkins spoon or the Little
George handy and work it on the road beds. Look in the lower lake
creek bends and use the Zoom u tail pumpkinseed lizard or worm.
The short Carolina rig will be fair, and get the baits into the
heaviest cover and on the old creek beds. There are huge stumps
on these old creeks and the winter bass spend all day tight on
them. Up the river, jigs in the 1/2 ounce sizes in all black with
a brown trailer is the best bait for a big bass. Stay just off
the channels and close to the current.
