Shad spawn is making the bass go crazy

We finally made it, the best time of the whole year to bass fish Lake Toho is finally here. And boy is it setting up to be a good one. With some good management by the FWC and some key spraying of some of the topped out grass on the lake, Lake Toho is setting up better than it has in years for trophy bass. This is the peak season to fish Toho mainly because of the spawn. During the months of January through March the bass on the lake begin filling up with eggs to spawn. Making the big one’s even bigger. Additionally, with the bass having “other things” on their mind, the trophy sized bass are more apt to making mistakes and are caught more frequently at this time than any other time of year here. As previously said, Lake Toho is fishing better than it has in years. Currently we’re averaging between 20-30 bass on our 4 hour charters with 6+lbers becoming very common. The spraying of the hydrilla on the lake has opened up some key areas that weren’t previously fishable. More spots to fish makes for much more consistency in the day to day fishing. The best bite, if you’re looking to get the most out of your day, is on large golden wild shiners. Live bait is by far producing both the best numbers of bass along with the biggest size day to day. If you’re looking for an artificial bite. Jerkbaits, flukes, chatterbaits, and speedworms have all been working extremely well lately in the offshore grass on the lake right now. You’re definitely not going to go home empty handed whether you choose live bait or artificials. This is the best time of the year to bass fish Lake Toho and with that being said, it’s also the busiest time of year for us. So if you did want to see what fishing Toho is all about, I would recommend reserving your day as far in advance as you can to ensure availability. Bass wishes, Capt. AJ
