Check the regulations in your state to see what season is open this time of year. But to answer your question...yes...fishing can be very good in lakes this time of year. In California most lakes are open all year for trout and bass. The trout fishing is great right now. The bass fishing has slowed. But all you really have to do is change your technique. I have caught some of my biggest bass and trout this time of year. You might not get as many fish as you would in the Spring time but the fish you catch will most likely be bigger.
The Trout are closer to the surface this time of year because the water is cooler. But this also makes bass lethargic. This is also a better time of year to fish from the shore than it is in Summer time. |

We fish ON the lakes this time of year and it's called ice fishing. Yes, early ice is VERY good and I caught 5 walleye last night in less than 3 hours. My buddy caught an 8 1/2 pounder, which we immediately released after measuring. It was a little over 27 1/2".

I live in Arkansasclose to La. border. This time of year is really good for crappie and bass. For crappie fish the edges of creek channels deep holes and humps. The same for bass. If you have several warm days in a row, you can even catch bass on topwater. Last Saturday my neighbor found bass working a school of shad and he caught a 9lb 4 oz and 6 more over 4 lbs

go for the trout, they love the cold, some idiot said that trout season is ending....it has just started...it goes from around november when it gets cold until march/april. you can even catch some in the summer. Use power bait, chartreuse or rainbow. or use panther martin, rooster tail, and kastmaster lures.

It would depend on what type of species you are fishing for and what method you are using. This time of year bass,perch, and catfish can be easily caught. For your location perch should be hitting well on live bait fished at between 1 to 5 foot. If you are not sure how deep they are hitting at then I would suggest seting out a couple dozen yo-yos. Just by the sheer amount of hooks you have in the water, you will be able to quickly tell what species is hitting the best. Be sure to check your local fishing regulations before setting out yo-yos. More about yo-yo regulations can be found here:http://yo-yo.weebly.com/
