From what ive noticed the bigger or say the schools of decent bass seem to be deep. Try looking at a lake map look for step drop offs right near the shore. Look for points that come out near deep water. Who knows there may even be some mid lake structure out there that could hold lots of fish. Somthing say like a sunken island or a sand bar, or anykind of hump.cichlid fiend;4376727; said:Spots fished-1

Well work was slow again soI was able to get off at 9am and we were fishing at 11, the "Amazon" was todays lake of choice. I broke the ice at 11:32!! After that the bite was very constent up until about 6:30 when they SHUT DOWN. CLiff banged his first at 12:42 and missed about five through out the day. He spent most of the day switching up his baits. I caught fish on a mix of baits today but the crank bait and the chatter brought in most of them!
A couple beast but no monsters today but I had a alot of fun!!!
~~~~~FISH MORE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~STRESS LESS~~~~~~~~~~~~
. At that point I only had one bite when something picked up the chatter bait but dropped it very quickly. A couple hours go by and we havent had any action. Im mad as hell now and messin with Dennis telling him do you believe me now and as im cursing him out I throw the spinny by this laydown. Im slow rolling it so slow I dont even feel this fish start walking with it, once I notice I have a fish on I just start reeling in(NO HOOK SET). The fish is swiming towards and I cant tell how big it is then the fish jumps and spits the spinny dam near in the boat. Its just a fish story now but the fish was at least 4lbs+. At first I was just happy to see some action but about 10 minutes later I was kicking myself for not setting the hook
. Well the fish turned on alitte around 5. Shortly after Dennis banged his second and I finally got my first and missed one that got off about 5 feet from the boat(12"er). After hitting my point I like to fish and where Dennis got the first fish of day at, we start heading in. Dennis got another making it 3-1. He through he was going to get a victory but NO NO the buzzy FINALLY worked and I was able to land two dinks bringing it to 3-3.
