I'll post on the report board, but wanted to give an update on this thread. We got some bait this morning off of the dock light, and put 3 striper in the boat by 9:00 or so. We were about halfway up Craddock with only a few boats around. Y'all have mentioned lack of bait. I have not marked more than two or 3 bait balls all weekend. Was there a major shad kill last winter? Seems like a pretty bad sign if there is really that little amount of bait around. Thanks again for all your help--- now my granddaughter gets to eat fish for dinner.

I’m no bait expert by no means, but I believe there is plenty of bait. Just that the hot weather has them pushed out deep, to me it seemed like plenty of bait around back in the spring, there was times when I was fishing the back of some creeks that I believe I could have walked across water on the bait.
Like I say I’m no bait expert at all, just my observation. I’m a jig junky myself, but I’m sure the hard core bait guys can tell ya more

Is February a good month to night fish with top water Lures ? I mostly fish in June I remember reading a post last year of some guys doing good in December. So, I guess depends on the weather in February. This past was brutally cold.
