It won't be long before they come back down into the lake and start feeding again. Best method for taking them is live shad or a small rattletrap when they get up in the jumps. The white bass are up the same tributaries doing the same.
West Point Look for some outstanding fishing on West Point.
The fish are out of the river and into the main part of the lake. Look for a variety of fish in 22-26 feet of water during the day. Late in the day, look for activity over the shallow flats in 5-6 feet of water. They are hitting poppers and flies , which is very exciting fishing. The largemouth bass are in the spawning process.
