Recommended Locations

Deep Creek arm -17.1636,145.5508

Recommended Techniques

Surface lure fishing

Use walk-the-dog style surface lures at dawn/dusk around submerged timber. The 29% moon illumination means lower light conditions favor surface strikes from bass.

Soft plastic jigging

Work 3-4 inch paddle tail plastics along drop-offs and creek channels. Stable pressure (1013 mb) keeps fish active and willing to chase presentations.

Spinnerbait retrieves

Medium-speed retrieves with gold/copper spinnerbaits along grass edges. Light SSE wind creates ideal surface disturbance without spooking fish.
