We fished for bass on Lake Chickamauga during the pre spawn. Water temps were fairly cold for spring and the water clarity was very dirty due to heavy rains and high water. It was tough fishing but I got out there with Caleb from Bass Quest on YouTube and Chris the owner of Bass Attitude - two anglers that know Lake Chickamauga well. Key fishing lures were all related to reaction bites - fish were lethargic and in an early spring mode. Bounching the bottom and fishing super shallow water was the basic pattern. The lure that really showed off though was my Mega Bass Sonicside - a flat sided crank bait that deflects off of cover. I would throw it around rock and gravel banks and just bounce it off of cover. Fished on 12lbs flourocarbon fishing line on a composite fishing rod.
