Me and my dad are headed down to Mark Twain the first week of April.  He's not a die hard fisherman, but wanted to go on a little trip with me.  He will bass fish with me, but that's not necessarily his cup of tea.  I just want to see him catch fish.  What advice do you have to help catch bass, crappie, etc there this time of year?  Thanks.

If the water is fairly clear , you can head up any of the creeks or rivers and fish timbered banks and coves. Its just a guessing game as to which one to fish. If the water is mud colored finding the clearest water is the key. It might be close to  the dam or up the rivers. At times I have seen the  Dry Fork off Lick Creek   clear when others are muddy. At times it is just as muddy. 

  

 

The bass here are just like everywhere and hit the same lures.In the spring  I like Strike King Spin Dance spinnerbaits , and short arm single spins. Sometimes I really get them with Bomber Long A Minnows. Jigs , texas rigs , shallow diving cranks ...

 

If you want to try crappie just look at   where the other boats are fishing . Dry fork is a  good crappie cove . If they are shallow you can catch a quick limit on beetle Spins. I like to search with beetle spins just like i'm bass fishing .
