Fished Lake Eva yesterday afternoon (4/28/22), it was warm, sunny and windy. I fished here the week before and found some fish on a weed line right before dark, I went back to see if they were still there and they were. I was using the side scan to follow the weedline down the lake since it’s in about 8-10 feet of water, but comes up almost to the surface. Boat positioning was tough with the wind, but almost every cast in the right spot was a bite. I probably caught thirty, up to about five pounds. I did have to switch colors a few times as I was running out of worms. Watermelon red seemed to work the best, but green pumpkin worked too. It was my best three hours of fishing so far this year.

After my trip here last week I was waiting for a good day to go back. I fished (5/2/22) from 5pm-8pm. I brought a few rods but ended up just fishing the Netbait Speedworm the whole time. I fished it on a light Texas rig with the 1/16 oz weight. Cast to the edge of the weedline and just let it sit until a fish picked it up. I caught about 15 bass from 12” to just under 20”.

Fished Lake Eva this afternoon from 5pm-8pm. I got home from work and saw my Omnia order was on the porch so I was excited to try out the Strike King Cut’r worms. I fished the 6” in watermelon red and caught quite a few on the deeper edge of the weedline. The water temps are starting to come up now that it’s gotten hot. The water was in the mid-80’s. When the worm fishing got slow I caught a couple on the Chatterbait. I did have a few blow up on a frog just before sunset but they were smaller fish and didn’t get hooked up.

Fished the afternoon from 4pm-8pm. It was sunny, warm, and a 15mph North wind. Found 12”-16” bass around submerged vegetation, mostly in 6’-8’. I never really found a hot color today, but watermelon red and green pumpkin worked ok. I did dip the tails in the spike it dye, just to have something different. The best fish of the day was actually a bowfin, which I don’t mind catching as long as I have a gripper to hang onto them and remove the hook safely.

Fished Lake Eva this afternoon, the boat ramp is closed but the park is still open so I could slide my kayak in. I did pretty well hopping a shaky head worm around the submerged vegetation. I did swap out for a t-rig for a little while and it worked too. I used the same Jackall Flick Shake worm on both rigs. My longest fish was quite skinny, but I caught about a dozen that all looked much more well fed.

It was warm, sun, with occasional clouds, and a short rain shower. A little bit of everything this afternoon. Water temps are in the mid-80’s and the fish are hungry. I fished around vegetation, some of which was starting to mat up. The bluegill should be nearing their spawn, so the flick shake worms fished on a shaky head worked well. Watermelon red speed worms also produced a few fish. My top three fish today were 23”, 22”, and 20.25”.
