High Water Fishing notes. Bass fishing in high, murky water requires bright colors with lures like rattletraps, spinnerbaits, crankbaits, and on the other end of the speed spectrum, a jig. The colder the water the slower you want to make your retrieve. Fly fishing for bass requires big, bushy patterns.

The flatland fly fishers are serious about their business. They fish often and do well. They even fish all through the winter, no matter how cold. The trout keep biting. The catfish and bass fishermen also keep at it. They concentrate on the Northeast side of the lake where the sun shines all day.
