What lure(s) would you use at this time of year and what time of
day
would
you most like to fish?


I fished a club tournament at Lake Martin in Alabama last weekend
and
it
was
typical of this year, kinda. The water temp in one cove dropped
from
81
Friday
afternoon to 76 Saturday morning to 71 Sunday morning. We had a
bad
double
cold front come thru, first wave Friday night, second on Sat
night.
The
skies
were clear and bright, and there was some wind Saturday, none on
Sunday.
The
fishing was tough for 44 of us, with only four limits brought in.

Saturday I was tournament director - it is a 3 club tournament -
and
I
had
to
let everyone go, so I was last. The first point I wanted to fish
was
full,
so I
stopped on one just before it. Started with a big Fat Free Shad
but
got
no
bites on a dozen cast. Picked up a spinnerbait and one hit it on
the
first
cast. Landed a second one on the spinnerbait about 15 minutes
later,
two
keepers in the boat before 7:30 when the sun came up.

I worked that point and some smaller secondary points around it
with
spinnerbait, buzzbait, crankbait and worms, and my partner was
throwing
worms
mostly, no more bites. I moved into the shade behind the point and
started
throwing the buzzbait, and caught a keeper. The area was full of
logs
and
brush. My partner caught one on a worm then I got another keeper
on
a
buzzbait. Four in the boat at 8:30 and the sun was getting bright.
We
fished
shady banks and coves for another hour and a half with no bites.

Moved out to main lake points and started throwing a Carolina rig
into
deeper
brush, caught a keeper at noon on it. Five in the boat, two short
of
a
7
fish
limit. Talked my partner into running way up the river at 1:00
looking
for
a
kicker since I figured everyone was catching the pound average
fish
like
me.

Up the river I threw big crankbaits, spinnerbaits and buzzbaits,
and
flipped a
jig and pig into blowdowns and around all cover I could find. Not
a
bite
for
two hours. Then I put on a #5 Shadrap and caught two keepers
between
3:00
and
4:00. We kept fishing there till 4:30 when it was time to head
in -
not
another
bite.

I had my limit but figured they weighed about 7 pounds, and I
would
not
do
good. And I was worried, I was on no pattern although I had a
limit.
At
weigh-in my 7 weighed 8.02 pounds and tied me for second for the
day,
winner
had four weighing 8.42 including a 6.02 pounder that was big fish.
Everyone had
a tough time, with a bunch of zeroes after 10 hours of fishing.

Sunday I never caught a keeper, although I was first out and tried
everything I
knew. Another fisherman that had a limit on Sat also zeroed on
Sunday.
Took
only 5.98 pounds to win on Sunday and 3.11 pounds to get 6th,
nobody
that
placed in top six on Saturday placed on Sunday! I ended up 8th
overall,
2nd in
one club and 3rd in the other I fish.

All this is to say I will try anything and everything, from very
shallow
to
very deep, this time of year. But my favorite is a spinnerbait or
buzzbait
worked around shallow cover.
