Re: Lake McClure Fishing

The bass are under some of the houseboats, senkos, worms. Ripbaits. The jig bite is on if your closer to shore. If you are wanting to get some trout try a silver castmaster, your son can toss this quite far. Use power bait and a bobber for your son too.

You can use pretty much the same stuff you use during the day. Jigs, shaky head with at least a 6" worm or bigger, topwater, buzzbaits work well too. If you have any type of chop on the water throw a wakebait. If its hot during the day, then fish shallow at night, they will move to feed.
