The water temp is 71 degrees when we started this morning and 74 when we finished up. The S canal is clear as of noon today.
Top baits this week for me were the Bass Assassin RSB worms, and the Mike Bucca 5″ Trick Shad in Bone color.
I’m fishing the Green Pumpkin Jackhammers on wind blown points. I only use a 1/2oz with a Zako trailer to match or a Bass Assassin Whoopa Craw to match. I have been messing around with the Bruiser Bait Sidekick trailer for a week or so and it holds up better than the Zakos. It swims great too.
The new 5″ Mike Bucca Trick Shad in Bone color is my go to swimbait this week. I’m fishing these along thick grass edges near deep sharp drops or cuts near main canals. It is a fish catcher and it will work all over Headwaters.Swim these just under the surface for best results. Get on the Bullshad email mailing list so you can get the bait drop info.
I’m fishing the Bass Assassin RSB worms (Gooseberry) with a 1/8oz weight. The fish are in the hydrilla near spawning flats. I’m using a 5/0 VMC Redline EWG hook.
If you want to catch a bunch of fish pick up some shiners and free line them in deep water grass lined areas.
Check out this giant my buddy Kevin Gillispie caught on February 6th. She was almost 12lbs and full of eggs!!
