Lake Jackson Fishing Report – January 2021

Jackson: Level: Full pool. Temp: Mid 50s. Clarity: Stained.

Bass: Tournament angler Brian Lee reports, “The bass are schooled up in areas, while some are still roaming around chasing bait. The best bite is down the lake toward the dam for spotted bass. A Lucky Craft Pointer 78 in natural colors are catching fish. The bass will be 12 to 20 feet deep. For the deeper fish, use a Fish Head Spin with a white Zoom Super Fluke Jr. paddle tail or a Keitech 2.8. Largemouth are hard to find as the water is getting cooler, but they can be caught. You just have to set your mind to chase the largemouth bite all day. Just brave the weather and dress warm. The bass are still biting fairly good. I’d like ask for everyone to keep a close friend Blake Tomlin and his family in your prayers. His little brother recently passed away for reasons still unknown, Jeremiah Johnson was only 13 years old. Jeremiah was going to be a force to reckon with in bass tournaments in the near future. The good Lord called him home to join an elite group of anglers that we all used to watch. RIP Jeremiah. Until we meet again, keep chunking and winding.”
