Fishing Report: Bass fishing has been fair to good over the past week. The water temps are in the low to mid 50's and the water is still low but coming up some with the recent rains. I have been using a couple of different lures lately, starting with a V&M tube in colors of black/red or junebug. I Texas rig this bait with a 4.0 hook and 1/4 oz. weight. Pitching to the cypress in 2-4 ft. of water. Another lure I have been using is a red or chrome lipless crankbait over the grass in 4-5 ft. of water. Just retrieving at a steady pace ticking the top of the grass. Sometimes you may find the bass bunched up in the grass this time of the year using the lipless crankbait. The crappie are fair using white or green 1/16 oz. jigs fished along the channel near the government ditch. The white and yellow bass are thick fishing off the bottom using small spoons and roadrunners in front of Johnsons. Go to http://bayououtdoors.com to see the V&M line of baits
