Lake Burton Fishing Report
Water Temp 45deg
Clarity: slight stain
Level: full pool
Bass
The Spotted Bass bite has been good the last few days. We have caught fish both shallow and deep. Most of our bigger Spots have come off a 30ft bottom mid way back in the creeks. Spoons and Under spins are the ticket right now and should continue to be over the next few weeks. The key to catching fish this time of year other than sight fishing, is paying close attention to your electronics. We have caught a few Large Mouths on steep ledges with swim baits. This bite should pick up over the next few weeks if water temperatures hold.
Brown Trout
The bite has been ok and should continue to get better once the silt from the recent rains settles. We have caught some trout trolling rappala countdowns and Yo-Zuri 3D crystal minnows. Trolling at a speed of 2.8-3mph seems to be the ticket. We have caught a few Rainbows on some smaller mepps spoons the last couple of days.
Good Luck!
