Bass
Fishing Report; Kentucky and Barkley Lakes; Dec. 7, 2006
Both
lakes are at winter pool. Winter has definitely arrived in the
lakes area. We woke up to snow flurries this morning and the
daytime temperatures did not get above the freezing mark. The
colder weather and wind has kept most anglers off the lakes and so there
have been only a few reports. As per usual, I will not be
publishing weekly reports during the winter but will publish reports periodically
when I have verifiable information. Of course my weekly reports
will resume each week starting the first week of March. The weather
forecast looks pretty good for this weekend and next week with
temperatures next week forecasted to be in the high 40's to low 50's so
maybe we will have more information for the winter anglers. Here
is the current information I have with some suggestions where
information is insufficient to write what I feel is a verifiable report: Largemouth
Bass: Some Largemouth Bass are still being taken in the creeks and
bays feeding on schools of baitfish. These fish are being taken by
slow rolling spinnerbaits under the schools of baitfish and by fishing
near wood cover with jigs and shakey head worms. Many of the
Largemouth have moved out to the mouths of the bays and one should be
able to catch them on main lake points on suspending jerkbaits, slow
rolled crankbaits and jigs. Smallmouth
Bass: Smallmouth Bass are being taken on main lake points on
suspending jerkbaits and jigs. There have been some reports of
Smallmouth being taken in the canal on suspending jerkbaits and slow
rolled spinnerbaits. Some
of the productive lures have been: Lucky Craft pointer in chartreuse
shad, Hook Some Bass spinnerbaits in blue glimmer, If
you have not yet made your reservations for your spring fishing trips
you should do so as soon as possible or you may not be able to get the
date(s) you want for lodging and guides. I have already had to
turn down a few folks that wanted certain dates and I am sure the other
guides are doing likewise. Don't delay in making your reservations
if at all possible. If
you are in need of a guide for a fun bass fishing trip, tournament
preparation, lake familiarization or technique instruction for next
season don't hesitate to drop me an email or give me a call. I am
home most every day right now during the day and evening so if you would
like to call me to discuss the best times for the different seasonal
bass patterns so you can plan your trip, feel free to call. I
have had a number of folks call me to ask where I will be doing bass
seminars this winter. At this time I only have a tentative
schedule as follows: Greater
This
schedule is tentative and may change...I will publish a firm schedule as
soon as it becomes available. It
is not too late to get that gift certificate for a guided bass fishing
trip to give that special bass angler on your Christmas list. Call
or email me for details. This makes a great Christmas gift!! I
would like to thank all the great clients I had this past season and
hope to see you all again this coming season. I would like to
thank all the fine folks at Jet-A-Marina for assisting me and my clients
this year when we needed repairs or just some great advice, also the
folks at The Cabin Bait and Tackle for making sure my clients had all
the right lures and tackle they needed to make their bass fishing
here on the lakes more productive. Dave
