Southern Illinois bass fishing

Featured Replies

Checking in. So far for me, all waters I have fished on are VERY muddy. Not much to report....yet.

I fished Newton this past Monday.  58 degrees on the cold side.  Water was stained.  Weird day- caught 'em shallow and a couple deep on just about everything I threw.  I couldn't really establish a pattern.  Biggest were in the 17"-18" range.  Talked to a couple other anglers and they said basically the same thing.

 

I fished Glenn Jones lake in Southern Illinois on Tuesday.  Caught a bunch on finesse stuff but nothing bigger than 16".  That lake is known for small bass and I caught a bunch of them.  58-59 degrees.  Very windy.   That's a pretty lake and fun to fish- just wish it had some big fish in it.  I gotta figure that those lakes are really going to turn on with this warm weather.
