January 28, 2010   

Conditions on Lake Eufaula are as follows: 

 

The current lake elevation is 189.46.  The surface temperature is running fro the high 40's on the main lake to the low 50's in some creeks.  The water is stained to muddy. 

 

 Cold, muddy water always makes for extremely tough fishing, and this has been the case on the lake for several weeks now.  Your best bet under these conditions is to look for the clearest, warmest water you can find.  That being said, there have still been a few really nice stringers caught recently.  These catches reportedly came fishing spinnerbaits in shallow water.  A Spro Superstar spinnerbait in the Lemon Chartreuse color is perfect for these conditions.  It has a modified Colorado blade that really puts out a lot of vibration.  This helps lethargic fish pinpoint the lure in muddy water.  Just remember that these fish can't move very fast or very far to strike a lure, so a slow retrieve and repeated casts are a must.  Another tried and true bait in cold weather is a jig.  I believe Spro's finesse jigs are the best on the market.  In muddy water, I stick with a 1/4 or 3/8 oz. Black/Blue version and add a Black/Blue Big Bite Bait Fighting Frog trailer.  This trailer has an incredible action and also creates buoyancy to slow the fall rate of the jig.  This will really increase the number of bites you get by allowing sluggish fish to capture the jig as it drops in front of them.  As always, enjoy God's creation and do your part to help protect it!
