Should be in the 70s now. Craddock Creek near the dam side, betty and becky's creeks, also the blackwater area near Scruggs rd. Here is a report from a friend of mine website:
Largemouth and smallmouth bass are spawning near the shoreline and on points. Sight fishing with bright colored soft plastic lures and tubes will produce when bass are locked on beds or protecting fry. Bass are also being caught around docks using YamaSenko worms and finesse plastic worms (Big Bite, ZOOM, Roboworm) and crawfish imitating plastic trailers (Netbait, ZOOM, Deep Creek) rigged on shaky head jigs. Spinner baits and crankbaits continue to produce around structure, especially when there is a little wind and when fish are found chasing shad. Carolina rigged plastics are also a good choice this time of year.
