5/4/2010 6:56:00 PMIf you are in a tube... fish this lake with very slowly dragging a little green soft plastic grub with just a couple of split shot. You will pick up a ton of rock bass this way, one it warms up. Maybe in another 3 weeks. Then come June-Aug you can catch large mouth bass. For those guys try throwing a watermelon colored Senko towards the shallows at the West end of the lake. The largies are harder to come by,,,, but you will slay the rock bass. Forget about trout fishing in bitter lake. It is fine for planters the first couple weeks after the plant,, but then that's it.
