Super User Bird Posted June 25, 2024 Super User Posted June 25, 2024 Was fishing a remote lake in WV several weeks ago, extremely clear water. The day was relatively slow for fishing, bluebird skies. As I was working my way back to the ramp, monstrous boulders suddenly appeared in 10-15 feet of water. Threw a wacky rig on a 1/16 head and landed 3 bass in a matter of minutes. Boulders are something bass can cling to. Quote
Woody B Posted June 25, 2024 Posted June 25, 2024 Where I fish big boulders, or rock piles + other structure are Spotted Bass magnets. During cooler weather exposed ones will hold fish. When it's warmer deeper ones are where they're at. I caught my PB Spotted Bass earlier this month at at big under water boulder. (about the size of a pickup) There's a tapered rocky point that ends at a smallish creek channel. The boulder is on the other side of the creek channel. I can usually find Spotted Bass either along the point, or in the creek channel or near the boulder. I've got "catfished" there a few times too. This spot is ~50 yards from a channel swing in the main river channel. I believe there's some "magic" current going on there when the power company is running the generators. FWIW this area isn't depicted correctly on charts by Navionics or C-map. I wonder if it's on Lakemaster maps. I'm guessing not. I rarely see anyone fishing there. Quote
