    Default Lake of Egypt


    I have been invited to fish lake of Egypt in January or February and would appreciate any advice I can get. My boat is setup for spider rigging but is there a better way to fish that body of water? Long lining with jigs? Are minnows the best way? Casting into cover? Bobber fishing? Thanks everyone!

    Minnow are a MUST at Egypt.

    It’s very easy to do fish the north end of the lake where the power plant is.

    buddy lives by that lake and likes it when wind is up a little and pushes shad up against certain banks and the crappie will be schooled just off of there and finds them with his E and then jigs down into them with jigs and minnows
