Bruce Camp's Local Fishing Report Jan. 26th edition
Can we all agree this is some of the craziest weather ever? Rain and cold, rain and warmer than normal, cold for a few days and way above normal for most of a week. This is more like, I don’t know, November or February. Fishing is good one week and awful the next and they aren’t even close to being in a winter pattern.
I did hear of a 20 and a half pound 5 bass limit coming out of Lake Norman a week or so ago. WOW, that’s amazing anytime of year.
We had some thunder one night last week. Old wives tale says snow within 10 days (some say 7 some say 10).  Ask your mom or grandmother, they can tell you. I will believe it when I see it.
Bass clubs will not start back up until February. However, they are still having winter tournaments on Lake Norman. Good turnouts and pretty good catches most weeks.
Anybody catching any crappie? My dad wants to go get some for a fish fry, email me or call me and hook me up. He is 88 and I will not get to take him much more, would love to get him out on one of the better days and catch a few.
Alabama Rig! Is this the hottest and most talked about bait ever? Have you seen them? Do you have one? I saw where BASS Elite anglers will not be allowed to use them, and some states even ban the use of them. Still they are the most talked about bait I can remember in years.
If you have some good info on tournaments coming up, results or questions, email me. Lets get the info out there.
Have a safe weekend. If anyone has any suggestions on stories or pictures of their catch or kill, you can e-mail me at plail5@carolina.rr.com. TITLE THE E-MAIL STORY OR PICTURE “FOR SHOPPER” OR I WILL ASSUME IT’S JUNK MAIL AND NOT OPEN IT.
