Well almost spring
No picture since I released it back to the pond. I was actually trying a new SA 4wt WF Floating line with the L2L connection. Works great. Any way I managed to loose one small bass on a rather smallish wooly worm a #10 for bream. So I switched to a #8 clouser with a red head. Wih this I caught a nice 2lb. large mouth.
They aren’t bedding yet but they’re getting close.

I have caught a few the last coulple of weeks. I was catching them while the ice was still partically over the lake. I catch them on a craw colored clouser and a chartruese beadhead woolly bugger. Its still a little cold in indiana and im the only one i know who has landed any bass yet around here.

Idabel,
How are you catching the White Bass? Maybe I can duplicate what you’re doing here in my part of Oklahoma if you help me with your methods. Thanks, Robert.
Still waiting for my first Lake Harwell bass here in Upstate SC. The water is a little cold (49 degrees)and the bass seem to be hanging a little too deep for the long rod. 8T
You had better learn to be a happy camper. You only get one try at this campground and it’s a real short camping season.
Robert, the white bass I have been catching have been below a dam feeding into a river. I’ve been using a sinking leader, an 8 wt rod, and a white marabou jig. I fish it deep and slow. The bass and crappie have came from a free flowing mountain river in swift, deep, and very cold water.
Eight Thumbs, 49 degrees isn’t too bad. I’ve caught all these fish in water below 50 degrees.
I have been catching brim and small L.M. virtually every week this winter on,of all things,floating,black foam spiders,Chernoble
ants and tentwing foam bugs.This is in SE Ala.
on a city water supply reservoir of 530acres.
