Focusing on river channel banks I found a big population of bass grouped up around rock piles and timber. The Mayor swimbait is very effective at slow speeds so it worked great. The bass did not want to chase very far. Fun trip!!

The key today was small baits. The water temps just dropped almost 10 degrees in 2 days and the fish were really stubborn. I found most of the fish in around 15-30ft chasing bait fish around. They were more active than I thought they would be. Lake Lewisville fish generally like smaller baits so plan accordingly! Good luck!

I went out to the lake for about 4 hours or so in the mid afternoon until the sun went down. The water temperatures on the lake ranged from about 49 to 51.5 degrees fahrenheit and the water clarity was about 6 inches to a foot of visibility across the board with a slightly green hue to it. The bite was slow overall as I only got a few bites, but I was able to land some nice bass fishing a PB&J football jig with a "Purple Rain" colored twin tail grub from K.O. Baits (check them out on instagram @k.obaits, some of the best hand poured soft plastics out there!) and a Green Pumpkin Purple Menace Grub from Strike King as the trailer. I slowly dragged the jig off of rock points at the mouths of eventual spawning coves in about 15 - 20 feet of water, as this is the depth I saw the most baitish in while scanning over the points with my graphs. Baitfish being in or near each area was key, as I only got bites in areas that I saw a good amount of bait on the graphs as I graphed them before I fished them. I've attached a photo of the biggest fish from the trip, a solid 3.5 pounder that absolutely smoked the jig. The fishing is tough right now with all of the recent cold weather and rain, but there are still good ones biting, so get out there and get a line in the water! Thanks for reading my reports and tight lines!

This report comes from my buddy Trey McMeen (follow him on instagram @treym_16) from his most recent trip out to the lake. He went out a few days ago, the water temperature was 49 degrees, with outside air temperatures in the low 50's, clear skies, and a strong south wind. He found some boulder rock in 12 feet of water utilizing his sidescan on his graphs, and then was able to pluck 17 pounds on his best 5 bag dragging a 6th sense finesse jig on the boulders. I have included a photo of one of the bigger fish he caught to the report.
