how to fish this?

Featured Replies

what I have found is a possible brush pile/clump of stuff in 38 feet of water. I assume people sunk some stuff during ice fishing for crappie. I have never fished deeper than 18 feet or so and never had much luck deeper than 10 feet so I am not sure how to approach this.

the lake has a depth clarity of around 5 feet.

water temp as of tuesday was 82 degrees on average.

this is a fairly small lake around 177 acres

the spot is located in no mans land there is no other structure anywhere for a long way, and the bottom appears to be hard and fairly flat. i graphed the spot several times and I have determined it is pretty small I have a hard time finding it and staying on it. it comes up off the bottom 5 to 8 feet or so. and I would say it is probably a couple christmas trees.

would you fish it?

how would you fish it?

1. Would you fish it? Hell yea I'd fish it. Isolated deep structure looks like easy money in a small lake

2. How would you fish it? Slab or jigging spoon

Good find! Definitely worth your time. I'd drop shot it for sure. But I'd use a heavier ds leader - 10# fluoro - and the hook would be one the diminutive Gamakatsu off-set worm hooks. They come in sizes like #2 and #1 (not 1/0!) and this makes presentation of a 4" - 6" worm just ideal! Good luck!  :)

I would mark it with a buoy , back off , and throw a plastic worm on it.
