2 words: Docks, pads
This time of the year and on through Aug this is where I have my best luck. Stick worms skipped around the docks and pads Texas rigged work well. Also top water baits on the pads can be real exciting. There are a couple areas that have deep rock that can spit a bigger fish, but not many for numbers. Its a good method to find a kicker fish in a tourny. Good luck and let us know how it goes.
July 17, 2003 at 4:20 pm #270942Well, I prefished for a little club tourney and what you said held to be true…mostly…
I really wasn’t getting them going in the pads or on/under the docks but I’m sure they are there at times or were there and not hitting what I was throwing…
The lake is really high and most of the shallow fish I got were tight to the flooded cover close to shore such as the bullrushes, lanscaping rocks (I told you the water was high) and wood etc.
I caught a few quality fish on the deeper rocks too like you said…so, thanks for the advice!
July 17, 2003 at 5:20 pm #270949Were you able to get under the culvert? I know I couldn’t this spring. I don’t think I’ve fished it with that of of water in the summer. Sure would be interesting. Usually the daocks are the only shallow cover and thus are loaded. Glad you figured ’em out. Thanks for the update.
