• Tackle & Baits

For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Parking is often the real limit rather than the bank itself. Where parking is tight, arriving early solves most problems. Wiemeyer Pond at 1.4 miles is the sensible second choice. Nothing on Red R Lake should be assumed from this page alone.
