LAKE eUFAULA bass fISHING rEPORT- MAY 2020

May 13, 2020 Lake Eufuala Bass Fishing Report

Water Level: 188.6

Water Temp:77

      Bass can be caught both shallow and deep at Eufaula right now. Bass are around willow grass and can be caught on a variety of baits. My go to baits early during the shad spawn have been a white Strikezone lures swim jig and a chart/white 1/2oz Strikezone lures spinnerbait. As the sun tops the trees I have been making a switch to more of a bluegill swim jig and spinnerbait around bluegill beds. The offshore bite will begin to pick up as May rolls along, especially in June. Bass normally start moving back offshore whenever the water temperature hits the 80 degree mark. Look for this fish to be in brush piles as they migrate out and then on the ledges. Fish a Strikezone lures CB sling blade and a Jenko CD 15 in the piles. The key to this bite is covering as many piles as you can in a day. You will not be getting many bites but the bites you get will be big. The ledge bite can not get here fast enough and I will be waiting on them, in the coming weeks, with a Jenko Tremor Shad!
