    Default Wood report

    Got out to the Wood yesterday (Wed 4/3) about 6ish. Water like glass. Level down at least a foot from last week and dropped, seemed like 8-10 inches in just the day yesterday. Threw out some top water for no love. Switched over to a drop shot with a 4"white w/ red flake salt and garlic..BAM...but just as fast, he spit it out...felt good tho!! Nothing for a while, then my ultralight hits on a nightcrawler under a bobber...fought him a for a few, then snap...just too big for my light line. A few hits on a dine soaking in the cove. Beautiful weather, not much pressure from boats considering they are open 7 days/week now. We cleaned the entire shoreline of "punk-*** fisherman left-overs" (trash) and THANK those responsible for the switch back trail carved into the hillside for a safer travel!! BTW...seen a lot of bass finally moving up to shore. Happy fishin!!

    They are also hitting creature baits, rodents being one of my favorites. It's nice to have another target to give my arms a rest from tossing swimbaits.

    Thanks for the cleanup!

    Thanks for the report and the cleanup. Nice to hear people picking up after disrespectful people. Gonna give it a go tomorrow and throw swim baits for about an hour then work the dropshot.

    Go early for the swimbaits, it's going to be windy in the afternoons for sure the next few days. The bite has picked up.

    Good luck!

    Hoping to get there around 6:30. Noticed last week that once the sun cracked the top of the hill the bite shutdown. Gotta see about picking up some more swimbaits. Only thing I have in my arsenal is a 6" lunker punker. Was pretty stoked to see jail birds boiling last week.
