How should i approach it?

Featured Replies

Well had a little storm pass by last night and thinking about heading out to the local pond. just looking for some ideas on how to approach it. Its max depth is 6ft and the only structure is on the shore and its all Tules. Id figure thats the only place they'll be is tight to them and in the most shady area's, what do you guys think? Maybe ill throw a Rage Anaconda, Jig, Senko. ANY IDEAS?

They might be up on the shoreline eating up the baitfish. With the runoff from the rain it's pushing bugs into the water starting a feeding frenzy with the baitfish, in turn it's going to turn on the bass to the baitfish. Try to throw a crankbait parallel to the shoreline about 2-3 feet away and run it back it to you.

Took the words out of my mouth

heck i wish we could just keep bass in a body of water with a max depth of 6 feet. those winter kill up here.

my local lakes just deep enough to not kill over....    ive done ok by hitting the edges of the pads that grow off the shoreline. jigs (fished what seems to me like too slowly), worms, the occasional texas rig craw.

i just cant stand how slow I have to work it after a storm rolls through. but in 6 feet of water, I cant imagine ur looking at the bass having the chance to go very far..... just keep slinging baits, theyll bite eventually. ;D

You've gotten several different answers here, theres no denying that. But what this proves is that there is no one way to fish after a storm or any time for that matter. Every lake or pond is different and no matter where you go your just going to have to figure things out for yourself. Go out there and try a couple different things and see what works, it might take a few outings but you'll figure out something.

I may be new to this forum but I'm not new to fishing, and what I can tell you is there is no right answer to this question. What it comes down to is what works for YOU. Everybody has different fishing styles and that's going to affect what works for you and what produces.

So what you need to do is go out there and try it!!

Good luck!

I might have to write this down.
