Bass Fishing On 12/22 & 12/23

[Lifes2Short]

Fished Saturday out of State Park Marina and stayed within 2 miles of the ramp. Got on the lake about 10:30 and fished until 3:30, water temp was 45 and the wind was 15 out of the south. Caught about 10 blacks with one keeper all on a white jerk bait. Found the fish on a main lake point at Maze Creek and also in the back of a main lake cut in 10' of water on a chunk rock bank. I also caught one smallie on the finess worm on the rip-rap point at the maina.

Fished Sunday out of Mutton Creek on a BEAUTIFUL day, 9 to 3, light breeze, lake temp 44 to start and 47 by 3:00. Couldn't hardly buy a bite unitl the afternoon then the bite picked and my partner and I ended up with about 20 blacks, most all of them 12 to 14 inches. We might of had 3 keepers but didn't measure, we did catch one keeper walleye on the jerk bait. We caught about half our fish on jigs and finess worms and the other half on the white jerk bait. Found a nice group of fish up on a main lake bluff @ Powerline Cove and then a nice group of fish in Mutton Creek about half way back on a chunk rock bank.

Merry Christmas all, hope Santa brings you all new fishing equipment!

btlifestooshort,

We fished on Saturday too. Launched at Ruark and headed to CC Area. Water there was kind of nasty color and fish were not juming in the boat. Could not get a hit on Jerk Baits, Crankbaits, Spinnerbaits, etc. All fish caught on Jigs and Finesse Worms. Most of the jig fish were caught on Lion Head Jigs in 3/8 and 1/2 ounce, Craw Oil, and Green Pumpkin Zoom craws. The preferred Jig color was Creek Sniper. We only caught 12 Bass total for the day. Mostly on points with big Chunk Rock and 10 feet or less deep. One fish 3 lb. 8 ounce, one fish 3 lb. 6 ounce, one maybe two and a half. Also one keeper Walleye. Not a super day but definitely not the worst. I am anxious to find some fish in deep water and NOT on a bluff. Brush would be great!!!!

Happy New Year Everybody!!!!!!Keep on Catchin 'em!!!!
