I have caught several bass around the concrete picnic tables inside coombs ferry during high water.

Has anybody been by the Mill Creek campground lately, or know what level the lake gets to before they close it? We have reservations out on the point next month, I am worried that they will shut it down now. It is an annual trip for us, and I remember what happened in 2008 and 2011.

Pete, if nobody responds. I'll run over there Friday and check it out. Hopefully, we don't get anymore rain and the lake will come down a bit before then.

Anything that touches 25+ feet is going to be like $12-15 bucks a pop. Manns 30+, LC SKT Mag's and others are all 15-25 bucks. I heard that the Skeet Magnum deep cranks sucked so I didn't get any. But your right the 3/4oz FB Jig is also on the deck where I am flinging the deep crankers.

Don't count out buying blanks and paint. These are from August 2013 (when I first started trying to learn an air brush) - and they'll get 15' or so. When I wrap lead tape around them, they go a little deeper. if I want to REALLY get down and dirty, I'll hang a 3/16oz drop shot weight off of the front treble.

If you don't consider your time costing anything (I like to mess with colors during the winters), you can get these things in the mail, painted, with good hook and good split rings for $6-$7

Did I hear Spy Baits? We talked a bit about those last year, but haven't heard much since then. I caught a few on them last year when the fish were up top chasing bait, but haven't had much luck on suspenders with them.

What deep blanks have you tried with success?
