frostyttu Posted August 31, 2023 Posted August 31, 2023 Where are the bass located currently? Thinking off points 8-15 feet? Green jigs and green chatterbait. Any other lures recommended? Will be fishing in southern Oklahoma. Quote

Super User WRB Posted September 1, 2023 Super User Posted September 1, 2023 Wag wild arash guess only thread. Most lakes over the Holiday weekend will be trashed by lake lice boaters and wakes. Apparently the OP knows the thermocline is around 10’ and like green. I wouldn’t try to guess without knowing more about the lake, the clarity and temperature or without surveying the marina to determine the life zone/ thermocline and depth the bait and bass are at. Greenish color water my go to color is purple like MMIII or black grape with purple neon soft plastics. Shad color top water or white frogs if weed mats are available. Probability focus on deeper weed edges and mud line points, back of any creeks with running water. Tom 1 Quote
papajoe222 Posted September 1, 2023 Posted September 1, 2023 Not much information to go on. I'm curious as to why you mentioned the 8ft-15ft area of the water column. I'm with you on targeting points, especially if it's an unfamiliar lake. Regardless of your reasoning on depth choice, look for cover and/or forage. Make your lure choices based on those factors. Keep safety in mind as you'll be a sitting duck for pleasure boaters and jet skiers, both of which let things like what's in the water ahead of them become no where near as important as their enjoyment.
