1. Largemouth Bass: Expect to find bass holding in pockets, coves, and around bluff banks. Using crankbaits like Rat-L-Traps or suspending jerkbaits around structure can be effective. Focus on areas with submerged cover and shaded pockets.
2. Stripers: Trolling with bucktails or live shad around the Clarksville area remains productive. Casting into schools of shad in open water or near creek mouths can yield good stripers, especially during low-light conditions.
3. Crappie: Crappie are still active around bridge pilings, brushpiles, and creek channels. Live minnows or small jigs fished around these structures will produce consistent bites.
With the mostly cloudy skies and stable water levels, fishing should remain steady this week. The moderate winds and mild temperatures create good conditions for both shoreline and trolling techniques. Keep an eye on baitfish activity and focus on structure and creek channels for best results. Tight lines, and enjoy the upcoming holiday season with some quality time on Kerr Lake!
