My bass club, Lancaster Bassmasters fished Wateree on Saturday the 20th. Had 15 boats and 20 anglers. Day started off cold, at 24 degrees. My steering cables were stiff and others were frozen so bad they couldn't turn the motor.

Water was 39 degrees at the start and muddy like chocolate milk. Not good. It was a very frustrating day for sure. I threw cranks, shakey head, rattle trap, jigs, spinnerbait you name it. NO bites at all. The water did get up to 48 deg in some places by late in the day, but the fish didn't respond. I pre-fished Friday all day and didn't have a bite. That's 2 full days in a row without a single fish. Ugggh.

ONLY 1 bass was caught! Out of 20 anglers! He took 1st place, lunker and team. Caught it on a shakey head at 8:30 in the morning. The rest of us tied for 2nd place. LOL.

CAT T next Saturday should be interesting. I think the weights will be low.

WHERE DID YA'LL PUT IN FOR YOUR TOUR? I went fro 2:30 to 5:30 yesterday and like you did not get a bite. the water was warmer in protected areas most readings were 51 to 50 but near the lower dam water was 46 degrees. I figured you must have been fishing up around the state park. How was the water color up the lake? ive got my club tour this coming Sunday.

Thanks!
