Post subject:  Willow Tree Magic

I was bass fishing the very south end of Beaver Lake (near Goshen) in Arkansas a few weeks back when I saw a very large old pontoon boat stripped down to just deck and motor. Two dudes had it loaded down with willow trees and concrete blocks. They stopped and asked if I was crappie fishing. I assumed they were baiting crappie holes.


The White River/ Beaver lake is dropping almost a foot a week, and while I am out bass fishing, I keep finding their willow trees. Dog gone if they are not the best bass cover around. I do not even worry about getting hung up in them. When I find them, I run a Zara Spook over the top. If it does hang up, just twitch it and bass hit with a vengeance. I have not fished top water over one of their willows yet and failed to at least get a strike.

I doubt I ever sink Christmas trees again. The banks are covered with willows so all I got to do is bring something to weight them down.

Some of my best spinnerbait bites were dragging one through willow tops on Toledo bend. Damned good cover.

Went this past weekend with one of my buddies and got in them under the willow trees. They definitely hold the bass and socalet!
