With water Temps in the low to mid 50's the bite was still a little slow on the east side of the lake. I found fishing ledges and off steep drops to be key with a slow bait like a jig or ned rig works also.

Fishing on Lake Wilson was FANTASTIC! Largemouth and Smallmouth bass are large and plentiful (along with giant striped bass and walleye). Water temps were 68 to 75 and many bass are still on beds and spawning. I was able to catch bass on beds but also found a wicked topwater bite on the Evergreen SB! Cast your SB close to the bank or amongst laydowns and stickups and hold on. Bass were crushing the SB, both largies and smallies will slam topwater here, as well as moving bait such as swim baits and spinnerbaits. Baitfish are large and plentiful, hold onto your rod as you could easily find yourself hooked onto a double digit striper as well. For the finesse fisherman, there are tons of limestone bluff walls and rockpiles to target. A green pumpkin hula stickz on a lightweight nedrig jighead was fire on that deeper bluff bite.
