Inks Lake is holding steady at normal level with stained water (about 2 ft visibility) and temps in the low 80s. Fishing has been scattered and patterning bass consistently has been tough. We’ve been catching them with a mix of techniques around all sorts of cover, structure, and depths — a classic late summer/early fall “junk-fishing” bite.
For anglers comfortable with forward-facing sonar, there are nomadic bass roaming open water and relating to shad. Mid-strolling minnow-style plastics have been the most consistent way to connect with these fish.
Big Bass Score = 2; Numbers Score = 2; Total = 4
