Now available for sale 50 of my proven GPS waypoints for off shore structure
for Bass and Crappie fishing on Weiss Lake, Alabama !
Bass fishing is Good and most Bass are shallow and in the early stages
of spawning, although some fish are still being caught on the ledges. A Zoom lizard in junebug color is always a great bait
for Bass during the spawn. Most of the Bass have moved into 2-5 feet of water in the spawning bays of the upper and lower
lake, look for shaded banks that have at least 1 1/2 feet of water right at the bank, shaded seawalls in the spawning
bays are always a great place to find these cruising and bedding fish.
Crappie fishing is Great and good numbers of fish are being caught spider
trolling Jiffy Jigs in 1/24 ounce in colors JJ12, JJ13, JJ17, JJ18 JJ20, JJ25, JJ26 and JJ35 www.jiffyjigs.com on 6 pound test line in 3-5 feet of water in the bays of the upper lake. Little River is also producing
some good catches trolling the river channel with 1/16 ounce Jiffy Jigs on the edges of the main river channel. A
lot of fish are starting to be caught shooting docks with a 1/24 ounce Jiffy Jig in the Yellow Creek area and in Big Nose creek, the docks in Little River are producing
also.
Striper fishing is Fair and the Stripers are starting to move up
the Coosa River for
the spawning run. Fishing live Shad or cut Shad on or near the bottom in the main Coosa River from Poole's Ferry to Mayo's Lock and Dam is a
great way to catch these fish as they move up river for the spawn. Trolling a 1/8 or 1/4 ounce jig with a 3 inch grub
or sassy shad on 8 or 10 pound test line in the main Coosa River from Poole's Ferry to Mayo's Lock and Dam is a great way to catch the smaller 2-6 pound
schooling stripers.
Catfish are biting Great. Catfish are being caught all over the lake. Target the marinas where
all the crappie are being cleaned as the discarded waste draws in the big Blues and Flatheads. The docks at JR's Marina
and Bay Springs Marina are producing some 20-50 pound Blues and a few Flatheads on Crappie heads most every night.
Make sure to use a good quality fishing line, I suggest a minimum of 25 pound test line.
