xxreact Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 I need some tips for bass fishing in elephant and baptiste lakes... I have been doing the following: -flipping jigs in heavy cover deep in the bays of elephant.. about 3 FoW (near the lodge and near the narrows)... some bites -flipping jigs in the cabbage..... rarely a bite but i know theyre in there -used wacky rigged senkos and spinnerbaits in the swamp near the narrows and hamilton bay focusing on the lilly pad beds.. some bites -running a strike king red eye shad which has gotten some nice fish but only once in a blue moon. I have 2 spare baitcasters (jig, spinner, red eye shad, senko, spare, spare). With all this in mind, are there any fishing spots, lures, and tactics you can provide? Just fished a tournament and only got 2 fish, one of them 4 LBs... which was caught by slowly dragging a jig along the bottom in the cabbage. THANKS!!!!

Joey Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 We caught lots up there on worms/leeches but also small plastic jigs, on Baptiste. Good luck. Joey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
