[:)] Well winter is coming to a close and it is time to get fishing again! I am thinking about making a trip down to Sand Hollow in the next month or two. I have never really fished for bass but would love to try. I have never been to Sand Hollow either. Could you fish this lake effectively out of a tube? What would be your best lure choices, I have tons of jerkbaits and crankbaits that I use for trout but would soft plastics be better? What is a good water temp to look for before heading down? šŸ˜Š Sorry for all the questions but I would really love to learn how to catch some largies instead of just trout all the time! PM me if you want your info kept secret. Thanks[;)] Hopefully Iā€™ll have a pontoon boat by the time I go! ---

I have fish S.h several time to the tune of 15 times or more. I have won and placed in several tourneys there. The way to go from a tube would be to go to the south end at the dunes, around the third picnic table and go straight out and find the point and fish from 2-30 feet. I would not wait 1-2 months, I would go as soon as the weather changes. You will catch between 50-80 bass in the 2-3 lb. range. use brown or green spider grubs Carolina riged with 3/8 ounce bullet weight. i have caught fish over five out of there and it is only going on 4 years that they made S.H. ---

I did a little searching on the internet and found some, Gary Yamamoto baits look pretty good, I assume they imitate crawdads, am I right.šŸ˜Š Maybe Iā€™ll go buy some and figure out how to rig them up! I canā€™t wait to go try Sand Hollow out, as I have never caught a largemouth. Hopefully Iā€™ll get my turkey the first weekend so I can go fishing.[:)] ---

i tube sand hollow nearly every weekend from april thru october. the best place i have found is around the back on the dirt road. take it till it ends, go out by the outhouse and go straight out from there. i usually am over abut 6 to 10 feet of water casting into shore with a senko either wacky or texas rigged. there are some 5lbers over there and a lot of 1 to 3lbers. dont wait too long though. early april itā€™s on!!! ---

That may be a spot Iā€™ll try 2nd week of April!! Can you camp there? Is it still ā€œprimativeā€ or has it been upgraded? Would the St. ā€œGougeā€ tackle places be able to help me get some lures, etc.? ---

From what I can gather the whole area around the lake is tied up so you have to pay a day use or overnight camping fee. I just bought a bunch of stuff today in preparation for my trip down there, i canā€™t wait![:)] ---

Iā€™m going to take my flyrod when I go, but as stated above I have never fished there so I donā€™t know what flies would work. ---

Bunny flies, zonkers, and buggers should do ya well on a flyrod. ---

Found out the water temp is 50 degrees today, hopefully in the next couple of weeks it will hit the 60 mark, as soon as it does Iā€™m gone![:)] Iā€™ll have to get some flies tied up that will entice those bucket mouths.šŸ˜› ---

bunnies, zonkers, and buggers sounds good. I have never fished it before so I will have to give it a try think I am there on the 19 thanks for the info. Would it be worth it to go over to Quail or just stay at SH? ---

Quail can be red hot this time of year, especially when they are on beds. ( a few weeks away). You will catch better quality but not the quanity. good luck
