Bull Shoals - Freshwater Fishing Report
Subject: Bull Shoals,Mid Lake
BASS - updated 6-01-13
The plastic patterns seem to be working the best. The mustard colored and watermelon colored tube jig (gitzit) is really hot.
- Top water is starting to see some fish. The spooks and flukes are starting to work.
- Carolina rigging a lizard, brush hog, French fry, or finesse worm in 5 to 15 feet of water. With the water being clear the natural colors should work better.
- The hula grub, gitzit, tube jig, salt craw, all types of plastic baits can catch fish. These can be worked in 5 to 20 feet of water depending on where the fish are that day.
- Crawfish colored crankbaits are catching fish on windy banks. Cloudy days also seem to help the shallow patterns
- Spinner baits on cloudy windy banks. Mostly natural colors in clear water and bright colors in dingy water
