What to throw at lake anna

[James Pisano]

This spring break I will be going to lake anna for a few nights march 28th through the 31st. I will be staying on the private side on dyke three. I have gone before but not this time of year. What lures work best and are the bass going to be post spawn since it’ll be on the warm side. I will have my boat so I can go to different places on the lake any recommendations? Also my buddy is coming and he is bringing his boat if we did a little friendly tournament and put the fish in the live well for a few hours and let them go at the end would this effect the fish? if they are post/ pre/ or during the spawn.

 

Thanks

Also is it too early to throw topwater even though the lake is a nuclear lake?

I do not get to fish the hot side all that much and since you only get a shot at being there for a short time I would suggest this, if the water level is down like it was a couple of weeks ago then pick up a Carolina Rig and fish the channel swings, I fish it with Zoom lizards, speed worms, magnum trick worms, magnum speed craws and do pretty well there most of the time doing those things.

 

hope you enjoy your visit and be safe !!

PS: keep an eye on those creek channels for brush piles in and around the channels ?
