hey guys, ive been fishing all local germantown/collerville tn ponds/lakes lately and heres the fishing report!

 

bass are not deep and dont seem to be stationed near cover, all my fish caught today were no more then 10ft away from the banks ive caught all fish today on a bass pro shops xps squarebill sorta sexy shad color, ive been picking up lots of weeds/leaves will fishing and ive seen lots of bass making splashes ontop of the water, the bass are keying in on shad/bluegill bait fish only one of the 4 fish i caught today had sore lips and i caught it near some rocks so it seems that they wouldent mind a crawfish pattern bait aslong as its near some rocks or some cover, decently strong winds coming in about every 20 minutes, weather isnt cold and the bass have lots of color on em so they are up shallow feeding on the baitfish that are eating on plants and what not, good luck just my 2 cents on what bait to use and what the bass are eating, all fish caught were no more then 18 inches they were all 1-2 pounds the fish are LIGHTLY hitting my baits to the point i thought i was reeling in weeds, i wasent setting the hooks i caught all of em on the back treble hook and they were setting the hooks themselves too wish is great,

hey man

 

i would go fishing at grove (the pond near houston middle school) if you dont have any luck there then go on google maps and try to find a pond or a lake on google maps that isnt too well known,

there is herb parsons, when you go there do NOT fish any where near the boat ramp areas or near the benchs, there is so many snags i went catfishing and got all 6 poles snagged in less then 5 minutes there seems to be cables, laydowns, etc even with weedless lures i got snagged, also there doesent seem to be much fish there, i think from all the angling pressuare the bass have learned to live else where, if you got a boat your fine but if your bank fishing you should walk atleast half a mile to find a unfished part of the lake, also you need to pay to fish there, ive been there several times all you gotta do is park no where near the little hut near the boat ramp and take your fishing gear and fish if you dont wanna pay to fish there, done it a dozen times (LOL) theres some big crappie/bass in there watch out of for all the cottonmouths/copperheads the people there also recommend you kill any venomous snakes since its a public park... good luck and tell me what happens
