Bass Fishing

[Atta]

Never fished lower Taney for bass. Usually go to TR or stockton. Wanted to try it out tomorrow. Hear that the water stays around 70 in the summer down there. Do those fish stay up shallower or is the 70's hot for them?

Gonna give it a shot for sure though!

Tight lines!

Howd it go? I'm curious to hear how you do as I've talked about making a trip down there a few times as well.

well i woke up late and had a blow out on the way down so i didnt get on the water till about 8:30-9:00. did catch one thats was aboput 3 pounds. buddy caught a bunch on a drop shot in the gras. mine came off a ocho next to a dock. pretty cool little lake.

Thanks for the report. Was there emergent grass that you could throw a frog in or was it all mostly below the surface? What kind of water temps did you run into?

[Atta]

Grass was on the surface in some areas and submerged in most. I didn't try it but I bet a chatter bait would kill em.

Water temps by power site was 71-73 and got colder as I went north. Dropped to 54 just before branson landing. Grass was gone by branson landing. I guess it was to cold up there.

People I talked to told me a buzz bait, from, or spinner bait is best out there. I can see why!
