damian19s Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 I'm gonna be fishing the Lake late June, any tips for smallie and largemouth fishing in the middle/north side of the Lake? Thanks for any tips! Quote
Neil McCauley Posted April 1, 2016 Posted April 1, 2016 By North, do you mean Northern Basin? It is a bit different from the Southern Basin. A lot less boat traffic, probably fishing pressure also. Never fished it, to be honest. You really can't go wrong fishing LG for bass any time in June. The smallmouth bite does slow a bit later in the month, but the LMB stays hot. Submerged weedbeds and humps in 15-30 fow, around 8-9PM fishing a shallow running crankbait over these places is usually absurd. Deeper humps 30-40' you can catch fish any time of day. The only downside imo is this time of year the smaller 8-12" bass really get active and will hit any lure you use, and you won't get any fish in the 18"+ range. My solution is fish deeper with bigger baits. Quote
