At Eastman, bass are hitting reaction lures like crankbaits and chatterbaits in the shallows during early mornings. As the day warms though, fish are pulling out to 20-40 feet and hold tight to rockpiles and other deep structure. Drop-shots are producing best for these deeper fish, although bites have been subtle. A few fish up to 5 lbs have been reported, but most are in the 2–3 lb range. A few bass are also out in open water, targeting bait schools.
