Subject: Lake Monticello Report
Lake Monticello Water Temperature: 64 to 70 Water Clarity: 3 feet I fished a ˝ day trip today (Thursday) with Yale Graham & his brother. Fishing on Lake Monticello is slow. If you’re heading out there make sure to take your light line and Carolina-rigs. The lake looks to be about 2 feet low, at least. The fish did not want any of the baits that I’ve been catching them as of late. So I kept climbing into my worm box until I finally found the colors that they wanted and even then it was still slow. We finished out ˝ day with 12 solid fish on Carolina-rigs and finesse’ worms. The colors that worked best were watermelon/red, red bug, june bug/red and sour grape. The fish very fat and sassy & I’m expecting the spawn to be really good. With the upcoming cold fronts fishing should begin to pick-up again, especially once the clouds move in. Yale, "Thank you" I look forward to fishing with you again in the future!
If I can be of more help or assistance regarding a trip or "Bassin’ Class" please contact me at 972-414-5189 / 800-965-0350 or by e-mail at FISHWJEFF@msn.com. The "Fat Girls" are up and can be seen at http://www.fishinwithjeff.com and you can receive more information on my full-time guide service & "Bassin' Class." I do not have a "Bassin’ Class scheduled at this time. Don’t forget Lake Fork spawn finishes up the first part of June. Until next time…………….Good Luck & Tight-Lines!!!
