taking my nephew out next week. he's 10. looking to get him on some fish. we will be staying in alton bay so sticking to that end of the lake is preferable. any general spot ideas? aka gimme yo honey hole! jk. maybe not.
Dont know much about that end of the lake... always fished Lee's Mills down to the Graveyard area when I hit Winni a lot....but Id suggest topwater baits very early, and very late, around rockpiles and points adjacent to deeper water... and while the crowds are out try working some smaller soft plastics - 4" worms, lizards, tube baits, grubs, etc. - down at the bottom in that deeper water - carloina rigs, "whacky rigs", drop-shotting, etc
Back bay might be holding some fish theres a deep hole below the dam that they seem to hide in but i would stick to main lake points look for spar bouys fish all around them fish inside them in the am and as the sun gets high go to the deeper side of the markers use baits that will get down quick and topwater might work in the mornings.
