Thread: Winter Fishing

Check water levels and see how much fall is taking place!Like Don said find the bait and find the fish!Bring a drift sock and a couple 6ft. chains to slow your drift if the wind is bad!Get with a guide on whatever lake you intend to fish cause that's how they make a living, staying on the fish!Just my !

Best fishing and biggest fish of the year are caught now through spawn. Fish are feeding up, and are fat and sassy.

In my humble opinion I think hiring a guide for a day is the best money you can spend. Tell them your wants (learning) and expectations if any. They will cut the learning curve by mega amounts.

No sir, they don't bite when it's cold.....

nice stringer Carl. Dave

I probably catch 70% of my fish during the colder months. Almost all of the true Giants are caught January-February

Which lakes do you favor in winter? I was thinking of trying the Rez. Don't know that my glass boat will work too good at Grenada, although it's closest. I too haven't done any winter fishing.

Unless the water level is under 195, maybe even 194.5, your glass boat is what you want on Grenada. Once you start getting out you will realize how much more you can fish. She's on the rise after the monsoon we got yesterday.
