Low water-winter patterns are best

SCHNABLE...Lake NORFORK The lake level is 541.1 and the water temp is hanging around 50. Look for stripers around the mid lake area (30-40ft) deep and look for some in the creeks. Find the baitfish and they will be close by. Sometimes they will be right in the school of baitfish. How ever you fish for them ( live bait or artifical) get the bait to just above them and watch them come up for your bait and hang on. Bass are still hitting crankbaits along the bank or back out off the bank and throw a jig,grub or suspending jerkbait. Remember the lake is low so be careful and fish slow. Steve
