Lake Anna Winter Crank Bait?

[Jacob Krahenbil]

hey guys i was just wondering if using a crank bait is effective in the winter? if so where? thanks

Do you  have access to the warm side during the winter?

You will probably be better off with blade type baits in the winter at Anna. That and a jerkbait.

Warm side crankin' works........15-18' depths through the deeper cuts usually produce.

i put in at either sturgeons creek or Anna point so yes i do have access to the warm side however i dont fish it much due to i only have a old 25 HP so i generally don't go too much farther than sturgeons. any good places up where like anna point is? what about all those points and things are they any good this time of year? thanks

I live right up 95, but always go to the Potomac because I'm 4 miles away from that but I've been dying to get out on Anna during the winter on the warm side.  I've heard the water is about 70+ degrees during the winter.  You should host us sometime so we can try to figure out which lures work

Anna Point and Sturgeon Creek are not on the hot side.

 

The hot side is private and you need to know someone to fish that portion of One Fish Anna.

 

Give a tight wobble crankbait a try along with everything else the guys say to throw.

 

I believe the winner of the Lake Anna Cup scored the win with over  21 pounds last weekend.

 

I have  no idea what he and his partner were throwing so you give it a shot and let us know how you do.

You have to know someone to launch on the hot side.

 

The water temperature can get into the high 60s and low 70s in the winter months.

 

The closer you get to the nuclear plant the warmer the water.

Correct. He said he fishes there so I was hoping he would host us on the warm side since he would be the guy I know.
