Clear Lake Report 3/3/20
The water temps have been steadily rising with a spread between the low to mid 50's and I have seen them as high as 57 in the afternoons. Water clarity varies depending where you are at on the lake but for the most part it is getting very clear with the lack of rain. Some areas have become almost too clear in my opinion and that has put a damper on my A-rig bite I had going. Both sides of the lake are fishing well and the reaction bite seems better in areas where you find baitfish near by. I have been doing good on a single swimbait and a swimbait with an underspin on it. Also a Lucky Craft or Megabass suspending jerkbait has been good with the clearer water. Some of the bigger fish being caught have been on the LV500 and some on Glide baits. Some of the schools of fish I am finding offshore are real close to the bottom (like you see in my graph pic at the top) and they seem to be more like crawdad feeders. They don't seem to want to chase the reaction baits but rather would prefer a slow bottom lure like a jig or shakey head. There are lots of small buck bass up in the shallows especially in the late afternoon around sunset. The better size fish still seem to be in a holding pattern offshore in my opinion.
The Crappie action is starting up but mainly in the south end of the lake around deep docks and main lake points. I think the north end Crappie bite should get going with a couple good rain storms which we are bound to get sooner or later. Let's hope the rain comes and the lake gets full. Everybody do a rain dance. I hope you guys enjoy my little fishing reports. I'm sure there are numerous grammatical errors and run-on sentences and such. LOL Hope it helps a little.
Good fishing and we will see you on the water,
Troy
