Theory for why north end of lake warms up first
But if a creek goes east and west and all things even , the side getting hit by the sun should warm up faster . Early year fishing I search for steep south facing banks .

Its not a straight pull the channel is curved .So its tough to pull the wire out . A flexible wire would make it a lot faster .

Wasn't going for this big ol fattie
Those are big channels . I love catching them myself . On my home lake I troll crankbaits on the flats for them . They are easy to see on a depth finder and if the gulls and white bass are busy the cats are biting .

For what its worth , I metal detect and the south facing hillsides thaw long before the north facing ones .

texas jig weights
I'll use whatever hook matches my bait , but yes its like a punch weight but it didnt cost me a couple bucks for one . It is basically free . This one is from the 1/4 ounce cavity . I also have a 1/8 , 3/8 and 1/2 . I just made another one from a banana head lure .

texas jig weights
Those texas jig weights that AJ and Catt are always going on about . I have a spinnerbait mold . Instead of putting a hook in it I just ran the wire all the way through and Tada .

Winter Starts Today - Your Favorite Baits ?
If I do any bass fishing from here to spring it will be below a dam on a small river and the lures will be crappie jigs with twister tail grubs or road runners . I will b after bites and dont care wht the species is.

Wake baits
The largest spotted bass I ever caught , about 4 lbs was fooled by a large size Pico Pop in deep standing timber at Table Rock Lake . I was reeling it slow and steady . It was shimmying and pushing a big old bulge out in front . Not a wake bait but it was creating a nice wake .

Berkley Crankbaits
I just though of something that I plan on trying . There is a metal disc on the lip of the Dredger . That would be a perfect place to add a suspend dot and get it centered . Then you might be able to get a couple more feet out of the lures . The 14.5 which is the size of a Deep Little N might be able to reach 17 foot or so .

Berkley Crankbaits
The dredgers will get deep . I caught several keepers past twenty foot this past year with the 25.5 . I have never caught bass that deep before with a diving bait . They have become my favorite line of deep diving baits . I caught bass on all five sizes . Every single one ran true . They have a tight action , easy to cast and retrieve . The only negative for some people might be that they are not highly buoyant .

Late Fall - Early Winter Chunks
Way to scrape those big bass off the bottom . I bet it felt good to set the hook on those chunks .

Why do we throw a smaller variety of Crankbaits
I do the same thing with all types of lures . A bait gets hot , I keep tying it on . This year I had a buzzbait that was just killing it until one day the line snapped on a cast .

Advice for shallow water angler moving out to the deep stuff
I need to get a picture next year . I have an old eagle Fish Mark that I converted to a portable unit and when I see spaghetti at a small local lake ' I'm going to be busy catching fish for awhile .

Advice for shallow water angler moving out to the deep stuff
When you are going over some structure like a point and there looks like spaghetti on the depth finder , that is active fish . It might be black bass might not .
