By the way, Headwaters is now catch and release on the bass. Good luck on your trip and maybe I'll run into you if I'm scheduled one of the days you'll be there.

Flukes, chatter baits, and speed worms, blue and white colors have been popular.

Hi,
I work for the FWC part time doing the creel surveys and the fishing has been very good. As others have mentioned, shiners are working and as I say they're the favorite "candy" of the bass. Of note, two anglers last week from NC fished Headwaters for the first time and caught a 12lb 3oz largemouth along with a couple more over 24 inches. Only 4-5 of their 36 fish were under 16 inches, all the rest were 16-24" or larger. They only used artificial lures. The fishing has been great, enjoy your trip!
