Fishing Report by Mark Allen

Caddo Lake: If looking to catch some bigger bass right now, it is a good time to be fishing thick lily pads. Try throwing the frog type baits over the tops of these pad fields. You want to also have a heavy weighted Texas Rigged Creature Bait ready to use as a follow up bait on any missed strikes on the frog coming over the top of the pads. This is a fun way to fish, but you must be rigged up to handle this type of “heavy cover’”fishing. You want to use a braided line of at least 50lb. Strength.  I personally like the Sunline Brand for this.  You need to also have a heavy action rod, and I like the Falcon Amistad rod for this. When you have the right equipment, this can be a great way to catch your personal best bass on beautiful caddo lake.
