Fishing Pomme this weekend

[lobina grande]

I am headed to Pomme this weekend for little bit of bass fishing.  Has anyone had any luck?  What's the water temp and clarity like?  I saw where the last Joe Bass tournament caught some nice bass.  Thanks.

Water clarity is good not sure exactly how many feet, water temp is running right at 80. I've been picking on the crappie lately but have heard top water bite has been pretty good early.

What Ranger said.  They were bustin on top early last weekend, but I was dippin jigs.  79 degrees on the Lindley side.  Looks like really good shad spawn, lots of 2-3" bait around.

Thanks, I'll report back and let you know how I did!

Hope you do well. I want to try to do some bass fishing next week early in the morning then hit the crappie.

It was a rough weekend for me to find the "keeper" bass.  I fished a small day and 1/2 bass tournament.  WT was between 82 and 85 depending on what part of the lake you were on.  Caught about 8 shorts around the dam area on Saturday.  It was a hot day.  Started off with top water for the first hour and 1/2 with not even a sniff.  I switched over to jigs and shakeyheads and started to catch short ones.  The guys that caught fish said they ran way down the arms and caught them shallow on jigs and plastics, some on crankbaits.  I was told that the bigger fish were under the logs in the back of creeks.  The majority of the fish were caught early (before 9).  Sunday, I made the run to Copper Cove and caught 4 keepers on jigs.  Since we had a strong wind from the east, I catch most of my fish on windy points up and down the cove.  18.4 lbs with 10 fish won the tournament and big bass was 4.45 lbs.

Hope this helps you.  Good Luck

Probably a good shallow spinnerbait bite up there right now.
