Hey all, I'm heading down to the lake this weekend and i was just wondering what the bass have been doing. Has the jerkbait or jig bite been going the strongest, and also what is the water temperature like down there?

Thanks

I am going down to LOZ too this weekend. I have read that the main lake north shore down by the dam have been producing. Good luck and like to hear how you did.

The FLW Tour guys last week were catching them on jerk baits, jigs and some wiggle warts. I know they had to work hard for them. I went wednesday and thought i had had made my trip when i pulled my jig out from a secondary point and felt a good solid thud...for some reason a 6lb drum is not as fun as a 6lb bass??

Thanks guys, i'm planning on fishing mostly jerkbaits. We'll see how it goes, I've also been hearing pretty good crappie reports so I may have to fish for them a little as well. Good luck to you all if your heading out this weekend.

For a minute they are. :) I'm kind of an embarassed expert on catching drum with bass tackle. Seem to hook-up with one every other trip or so. Hubby says he's tired of going for the net when I think I have a lunker on the line. lol

The drum are biting very well. We caught 5 last weekend also caught some good bass. Jigs were the better of the baits for us. Maybe next time we will go drum fishing so I can catch a limit of bass.dry.gif

Got a couple of days off next week, and might go up, so spoke to a friend that guides up there. Just got is Fed. Lic. He said the Drum Bite Is On. You throw a jig on Lake O. and you are pounding the Drum. He said it is about as good a bite as he has ever seen.

They are dropping the lake 4 ft. so it might pay with all the current to look on the main lake points, and bluffends. Reports of temps in the 47 to 55 degree range. Some fish on a wart, most on a stickbait under 10 ft.

Im going to see if I can get him to post a weekly report on Lake O. Would that be nice or what?

Good Luck
