I faced similar conditions this past Saturday, they was tearing up a 1/2 chartreuse spinnerbait. The chartreuse is easier for them to see in the muddier water and the spinnerbait is a good wind lure I think

Headed there again tomorrow, water is finally up to around 50 degrees so I hope I can get on them.

You can't fish there at night, they don't open til 7am and then close at dusk. It's an electric motor only lake so it takes a bit with a trolling to locate fish, and I do catch fish there just not on a regular basis. It's like this lake never has a pattern bc there's nothing in itwhen I go there my goal is to catch 5 fish fish like as tournament would and I may spend 5 or 6 hours trying to locate 5 bass which is crazy just for a 100 acre lake

At what point on a given lake do you call it quits? I live in elizabethtown,ky and we have a local public park with a 100 acre lake. I know there are fish there but I just can't seem to locate them here. I can drive an hour or so and hit a couple bigger lakes that I can consistently catch fish but for some reason this little lake drives me nuts. At what point do you decide to give up on a lake. Also this lake also has no visible cover in the water, no vegetation, just nothing besides some Christmas trees the park people dump in there.

What part of Kentucky are you from? I live in northern Kentucky and the water is still in the low 40's and the fish are still in a winter pattern

I have 30# power pro with a 5 foot flouro leader

Anybody use the 7' mh bps gs rod for jigs? Bought the rod from a buddy and with a reel and line on it, it seems very stiff and not very sensitive. Just wondering if you all had the same opinion or it is just me.

Yea, it was pretty bad. Got lucky though and nothing major hit here. Still I've searched all over and cannot find a topic map of the lake. I hate wasting precious fishing time when a map could help ten-fold. I don't own an expensive fishfinder with side imaging so unless I just happen to run exactly over something I miss it.

Can't find any good maps of this lake, and its really low due to them draining it some. Planning on heading there Sunday and looking for some pointers on where to start fishing. Water temp is around 45 degrees
