• Seasonal Patterns

  The year swings from about 36°F in January to roughly 82°F in July. The surface stays open the year round. Spring and autumn carry the fishing; summer squeezes it into the edges of the day. Autumn steadies things again once the heat lets go. At this water the season follows that pattern closely.

• Tackle & Baits

  The rules here are undocumented as far as public sources go. There is no recorded infrastructure here; expect to find your own way in. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Gates get locked out of season on water like this. Some water is controlled locally without a sign saying so. The nearest alternative is Uncle John Creek Site 5 Reservoir, 0.9 miles out. Nothing here settles the position at this water for certain.
