gar-tracker Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 Speaking as someone whose been fishing a lake that has been 5 feet low for about the past year I can tell you this, the bass are there you just have think different, look for any type of structure no matter how small. When all of the normal structure is absent the bass will use anything to ambush even a pot hole. Check out a map for old creek beds or submerged canals, watch where the land leads in to the lake showing a creek or ditch, lots of times it will continue. Also what Iv done is down sized all my line, its open water fishing you don't need heavy line. Quote
