Hi guys, been lurking around for a while, gonna be making my first trip to BSL this Thursday and will be bass fishing through Monday.
I'll be staying near Midway, so I figure to fish the lower end a lot. I have a couple questions, don't want anybody's hard earned spots, but just general real-time information if you're willing to help a newbie. I'm pretty well versed in deep water fishing, and have side and down imaging so don't be afraid to steer me to weird stuff if they're on it.
1. At 661, is there water up in the bushes? Is there a shad spawn bite going on at all relating to these or riprap?
2. I haven't seen many people talk about cranking on this forum, mostly the Ned, c-rigging, grubs, tubes, etc. Is this just because there aren't a lot of you into cranking, or because they're not on it right now? I'd think there would be a good postspawn cranking bite on riprap/secondary points/creek mouths.
3. The guys I'm with have never caught a Kentucky, any particularly K "likely" locations or structure?... Again, no need for anybody's juice, but sometimes there are well known areas loaded with little spots that everyone frequents (bridges, etc).
4. Is there a tackle shop near midway that will have the Ned rigging components? Or do I have to go to BPS in Branson.
Thanks a lot guys, I'll post pics and a report when I get back.
