[steve p]

Water temp. 48-52
Water clarity. 4 ft

Great weather and great fishing this last week on Clear Lake,

The water level is up and the fish are biting, catching healthy and strong fighting fish from 3 to 5 1/2 pounds on Jigs / Shaky Heads and minnows, the LV 500 bite is also good and some fish can be caught on the medium size Swim Baits, both fished slow on the bottom in 5 to 18 ft of water.

I fished in the Red Bud arm and only had to fish a few spots, most of the fish had moved up from the deep rock piles to the first break on the shore line.

Fish the Jigs slow, and work them from 5 to 18 ft, most the bites came from the 12 ft range.

The best time for me was around noon,

I know there is a good Rip Bait bite up north to, i just had fun fishing the rocks down south.

Lets hope this year will be wide open at Clear Lake !


Have fun

Hey Steve,

just fished this lake this last weekend 2-26 to 2-27. Wow was it cold at 19 degrees with snow. The lake was shutdown as far as the bite goes. I spoke with one local and he managed 1 fish all day. We got skunked but it was worth the trip as it was a family trip. The lake looks good and the water clarity was the best I have seen it in years.

A lot of bait fish on the finder but the green guys stayed at home this weekend. That is why we fish right!
