I have a favorite spot fishing off a small low bridge. I was using a rapala blue and yellow split countdown minnow about 4 1/2" long. I dropped it one day straight down when my line tangled. I came up with a bass right away. In my mind i recorded the exact spot were it fell so i could try it on another day. I get jiggy with it as it falls straight down and i have pulled out so many decent bass in this one honey hole from time to time. Its exactly 12" away from the bridge on the X railing post. Its a hole because its deeper than the rest of the bottom.

Tip; I later found out there was a 2"x12"x10' long plank under there nearby with crawfish under it thats why this spot was so good with many bass there looking for an easy meal. The rocky bottom held the plank up in the water so the craws would go under it. I figured the bass were like cats hunkering down in the hole waiting for the craws to move out. This shows me that man made structure can be really productive too. I guess the plank was from them doing construction on the bridge a while back.

You guys with boats can mark the honey holes on your GPS.

I'm no pro and probably never will be one but its awesome to figure out why the bass are there all the time. There like the tides and there in the low light and disappear in the daylite. In the evenings it starts all over again(cycle) like the tides in the ocean.

The sports authority had these lures on sale once and i would of never thought this color would work but at the discounted price i purchased it.

Has anyone fished honey holes and have gone back to them?

When I first saw this topic, I though it was going to be naughty

Those kind of spots are neat and can be a lot of fun - just be careful about letting the word out of you will find that everybody will be on it or somebody will move the board.  There is a sunken brush pile on a lake near here - I only fish it when I need! to have one and everybody is always wondering how I managed to catch a fish "out in the middle of the lake".  If I let 'em in on it - it will be fished out or otherwise rendered useless.
