Missouri Lakes Fishing Report

Lake - Pomme De Terre 12/23/06:

Pomme remains strong; jerkbaits have been top producers this past week when fished around standing timber and brush piles on both main lake and secondary points. IF it is windy you will not need to pause the bait between jerks but if it is calm you will need to allow the bait to pause for as much as 20 seconds to draw strikes. There is still a good jig bite in these same brush piles with either an Eakins’ jig or Jewel ½ oz. Finesse Football jig in P&J or Missouri Craw being top choices. In addition fish channel swing banks toward the backs of the major creek arms with an Eakins’ jig and craw combo, paying close attention to any wood cover you find.
