I've been bass fishing primarily Lake Martin the last few months with limited success. I've caught the majority of my bass on spinnerbaits and plastics fished on a jighead. I fooled around with a swimbait for a couple of trips and caught a decent largemouth bass out of a tree top. I plan on throwing a swimbait around the docks a lot this spring. I have posted a few of the reports on Spinnerbaits101.com.
Overall, I would have to give this winter a C- so far on Lake Martin. Usually I am hammering the spotted bass on a jig this time of year, but I can't seem to nail that bite down. It may be the weather or the fact that I have been fishing the river portion of Lake Martin instead of Kowliga Creek. I'm just trying to learn some new bass fishing waters. I guess my next trip will be to my old stomping grounds on Kowliga. The fish should be there.
It's strange, but there are times when I will not see another bass fisherman all day. I guess it's the economy.
