Missouri Lakes Fishing Report

Lake - Pomme De Terre 03/24/06:

The colder weather has allowed the stickbait bite to live on another week at Pomme but with the warmer weather and rain expected this week I would expect wiggle warts, bandits and deep little “N”’ to become the baits of choice by the weekend. Look for fish to be staging on chunk rock and mixed rock points in the mouths of spawning pockets and coves and crisscross these points with your crankbait on windy days. On calm days move back out and fish from the bank to 20’ deep with an Eakins’ jig and craw combo in brown / purple flash with a green pumpkin trailer.

Still a live bait deal for crappie with live minnows being the bait of choice, look for the crappie to be holding out 15’-25’ deep over brush or standing timber.
