Going to Bull Shoals on Tuesday, any advice?

Gonna be down there (Bull Shoals) 20 - 24 March, looking for fishing reports. I'm from Northern Illinois so it looks like good weather to me!!

Also need to know if Bull Shoals is on the Great Plains Lakemaster Plus Card, it says it is but only a certain county?

Should be good fishing .

Lakemaster Great Plains card includes Bull Shoals and Norfolk but I don’t think they are HD. I used the Midsouth version and the Navionics South. Prefer the Navionics.

If it’s windy like it’s been lately throw a spinnerbait or Rock Crawler or Wiggle Wart. If they are feeding off the bottom, throw a lizard, brush hog or craw. T-Rig or Finesse. Watermelon Red or Watermelon Red Magic if sun is shining or Green Pumpkin Red or Green Pumpkin if overcast.

I’ll be out on Bull tomorrow. If you see me, give me a shout.

Thanks guys. Trip went well, fishing was slow but it seemed like we caught more than the others staying at our resort, my son caught a nice 3.07 smallmouth under the Theodosia bridge. Weather got better throughout the week but the fishing got slower too.
