Wintertime Fishing for Striped Bass.
Striped Bass fishing during the
cold weather months of November, December,
January and February on
Lake Ouachita in Arkansas offers some the most
pristine fishing opportunities of the year. Don't let cooler temperatures keep you
off of the lake the
Striped Bass are out there. Along with the always present chance of
catching a 40 pound Striper the fishing pressure is light and the Gulls and Eagles are always close by
putting on their arial show.
The water temperature of Lake Ouachita seldom drops below 50
and the ideal water temperature for the striped bass is between 70
and 50 degrees.
Besides shad, large surface lures, crankbaits
and jigs are productive.
A December Trip produced 12 Striped Bass caught on a top water lure that
weighed a combined 350+ pounds.
Dressed properly
for cold weather you will have a very enjoyable experience.
Always practice safe boating. Water saps body heat 25 times faster than air
of the same temperature.
Winter is a great time to catch your
trophy striped bass.
