Winter patern

The lake level is 554.3 and the water temp is in the mid 40's. There are some bass up on the banks and will hit crankbaits. It's better if there is some wind blowing onto the bank. Try thowing a suspended jerkbait too. For the deeper bass throw a jig and if you mark suspended fish drop a jigging spoon. Look for stripers,hybrids and whites down at least 40ft. and get you bait down to them or just above them. Look in the major creeks and if you see gulls fish close to them.
