    Lake Phelps Fall fishing???

    All -

    Typically have fished this clear lake in the Summer months when the fish are all around the banks. Seeing how this is such a shallow lake, do the fish here migrate off the banks? Went one time this fall and caught very few. Anyone have advice on fishing here during this time of year??

    Curious about this as well. Fished there in the spring and summer, but never this time of the year. The water is so shallow and i've never mapped much offshore structure so i'd be interested to hear how it fishes.

    Drove there on Saturday, water was super stained. More than i've ever seen before. Only caught 1 small bass all day. It was clear blue sky though. They weren't in dead grass nor hanging on the cypress trees. Couldn't find em deep near the fish attractors either.
