Winter is here and the bass have been moving deep, at least many of them, and right now anglers are reporting catching them using jigging spoons.
Anglers are reporting nice catches of bass by locating schools of baitfish with their electronics. Use the electronics to pinpoint the bait that is holding close to the bottom for the best results.

Bass fishing on Lake Norman in January is quickly becoming one of my favorites, especially when my son can join me again!
My son, was home from the Army over Christmas break and we never miss an opportunity to fish together. I put in at McCrary Creek access and rode into McCrary Creek I like this area in January, as well as the main lake pockets just south of the creek, because the warm water.... Read More

Winter has set in on central North Carolina but the bass can still be caught.
Anglers are reporting catches in Lake Norman and Lake Wylie by targeting ditches and creek channels with rattle type baits and jigs. These baits, worked along the edges of the channels, have been successful in boating many nice bass lately.

The hot hole at the Marshall Steam Plant off of Highway 150 is starting to get a lot of attention from local anglers. The warm water discharge from the plant attracts schools of baitfish and in turn, attracts stripers, catfish and bass looking for an easy meal.
Anglers are catching the fish using a variety of baits including jerk baits, worms and crankbaits. Bloodworms are taking catfish and.... Read More

Bass fishing in the fall is one of the best times to put numbers of bass in your boat because the bass tend to be fairly predictable. That predictability is dependent on the baitfish, and in most of the waters the bass inhabits, this means shad.
During the fall, the shad migrate to the backs of the creeks and pockets to feed on the algae that has grown through the warmer months and the bass.... Read More

With the water temperatures starting to fall and the lake level doing the same, the bass are becoming very active on the points that give them access to deeper water.

Badin Lake is really on fire for bass fishing right now.
Anglers are reporting catches on almost anything tossed into the relatively clear waters. The recent Fishers Of Men tournament was won with buzzbaits and Tube-X tubes by casting them on main lake points.

The fall season is one of the best times to fish for bass, if not the best time to chase the green fish!
With the shad moving into the creeks feeding on the algae, the bass follow. During this time of the year a number of baits can be used successfully, but one of the top producers is the simple jig and plastic trailer.
A bass jig is nothing more than a head molded around a stout hook with.... Read More

The water level at Badin Lake has been dropping a bit, but anglers are still catching bass.
With the falling water, the bass are moving closer to the points and the deeper pockets where they can ambush the shad.
Schools of shad are gathering in the feeders and the bass are feeding on them. Anglers are using top water baits in the mornings and then switching to crankbaits as the sun gets.... Read More

The two largest lakes on the Yadkin River system, located in central North Carolina, are running a bit on the low side, due to the summer season water fluctuations.
High Rock Lake and Badin Lake are about 4 feet below full pool and caution is advised for boaters cruising on the waters. While most hazards are marked, boaters should certainly be on the lookout for anything near the water.... Read More

Most of us hold to the time worn thoughts that bass fishing is only good during summer in the early morning or the late evening.
The PAA/Bass Pro Shops bass tournament on Lake Norman proved out that bass can be caught all day with a bit of persistence and a lot of sunscreen.
Edwin Evers won the event by fishing for bass hanging around boat docks. To be more specific, he targeted the brush.... Read More
