Heavy Fishing Pressure

fatdirtycat · 02-04-06, 05:15 PM

I fish a local lake that has a ton of fishing pressure. Any hints on making these bass bite after seeing so many lures?

Once it finally warms up ya may want to fish really early, like an hour before sunup....the lakes hear are heavily pressured by anglers all day, and I tend to think the bigger ones feed at 5-6 in the morning. Plus there probably won't be anyone else on the water that early.

try night fishing once it warms up.make sure you know the lake well,use a life jacket,take a buddie or two, have a flashlite,and make sure to use lots of bug spray.hope this helps!

with skeeter night, very early mornings,be off the water by 12 noon if possible. small baits presented very slowly. move away from the points every one hammers hard. head back in the creeks. pressured bass tend to scatter to hell and back. look for them on bare nothing banks-yep i know -but a rock the size of a soft ball will hold a fish..

Fat and Dirty, the night fishing is a surefire way to get away from the crowds. This time of year if its still crowded you just got to grit your teeth sometimes, or you can go when nobody else in their right mind will (meaning raining, windy or whatnot). Every now and then you will be happy you went on some of those days.

Zook appears to be right. Nothing looking banks may be you'r best bet. Just make sure that no one else has the same ideas. You have a wide variety of baits that you can throw here as well.

Dont argue with the ZOOK

Most folks pound the shore, look for channels in the water or throw to the opposite side of the boat as your crusing the bank.
