Subject: SCHNABLE... Bull Shoals report from 125 Marina BASS - - Alabama rigs- this bait works well in cold water rigged with some type of plastic minnow pattern bait. - Crawfish colored crankbaits are catching fish on windy banks. Cloudy days also seem to help the shallow patterns - Spinner baits on cloudy windy banks. Mostly natural colors in clear water and bright colors in dingy water - the old jig-n-frog combinations seem to be catching bass in 5 to 25 feet of water. The trailer can be a variety of things such as any type of plastics. - The hula grub, gitzit, tube jig, salt craw, all types of plastic baits can catch fish. These can be worked in 5 to 50 feet of water depending on where the fish are that day. - Stick baits such as the rebel, rogue, x-rap, are starting to catch some fish. I dot think we are going to have a shad kill this year so this pattern might not be as effective as normal. - White Twin spins on the bluffs - this also simulates and dying shad and may not be as effective as colder years. - Swimming a black jig-n-eel. I am not sure why this works or what it simulates but the old timers use to throw this a lot back in the day in the winter. - Spooning in 10 to 50 feet of water under the shad balls. This works better on a bright sunny no wind day. WHITE BASS - - casting anything that looks like a shad or minnow. Working it 5 to 30 feet deep back in the creeks. Very slow retrieval. Spoons, jigs, road runners, shad raps, white plastic baits, ect. - jigging a spoon will also catch white bass in 20 to 30 foot deep water. Walleye - - Stick baits such as the X-rap, rogue, rebel in shallow water at night or close to dark. Minnows colors seem to be the best. Crappie - - Small minnows around brush piles - small 1/16 ,1/32, 1/64 oz jigs around the brush piles.
