With only one major tournament scheduled for the 16 & 17th of this month, the Lake has finally gotten back to normal.  This past couple of weeks there have been many days where I have had the lake almost entirely to myself.  Now is a "Great" time to get out on the lake and target those big fish that are schooled up and feeding on the bait balls to bulk up for the winter.  For those of you who like to use "Live Bait" (Jumbo Minnows)  we are having some great tirips with catches up to 26 bass for five hours and with the best five fish for the last three trips weighing between 28 & 30 lbs for five fish.   Check out the last photos' for October and the ones I have just posted for November to see the size of these fish.   A side benefit to using the live bait is that we are catching catfish in the 10 to 16 lb range while fishing for the bass and these big fish have been testing my customers endurance while trying to land them on my light action bass rods.  For those of you who have younger children hooking them up with the live bait and letting them land these big bass and big catfish will be moments they will never forget. 
    On the tournament scene and for those fisherman using strictly artificial baits,  swimbaits, lipless crankbaits, deep diving crankbaits and the ever popular drop shot rigged worms and weighless senko's have all been working.    The most popular swimbaits have been the top hook six inch Osprey talon bait in the light hitch color.  The locally made Little Creeper Trash fish, six inch in the blue back herring color rigged with an 8/0 beast hook  is catching a lot of fish in the tournaments.  The River to Sea S Waver in the hitch color is another very popular bait right now.  All of these baits can be found at the local tackle stores and they can show you how to rig them line size, how to fish them etc.  Be prepared to put out about $16 for each of these.    The key to catching fish now is to use your electronics, find the bait balls and you will find the fish.  The fish are schooled up now and are constantly moving and feeding on the bait.   We are catching some really nice bass now and they bulking up good for the winter.  For those of you planning a trip, feel free to email me or call me for more details of what to fish and the best areas.  God Bless, Bob
