Inks Lake is at a normal level with water temperatures around 73 degrees and stained water offering roughly 2–4 feet of visibility. Bass are positioned shallow, primarily less than 10 feet deep, and are relating heavily to dock cover. Fish are currently in all phases of the spawn, with some actively spawning while others are staging or transitioning nearby.
Drop-shot rigged finesse worms have been producing the most consistent action when fished around docks. Precise casting has been a key factor, with bites coming from very specific targets rather than general areas. While skipping under docks is not always necessary, consistently placing casts tight to the intended target has been critical to success. Efficiency in covering water while maintaining accurate presentations has made a noticeable difference.
