Inks Lake Fishing Report – Late December 2025

Inks Lake is currently at a normal water level with lightly stained water and about 2–4 feet of visibility. Water temperatures are hovering around 60°, and the cooler, overcast days have been producing the most consistent action. With the recent drawdown behind
us, the lake is continuing to settle into typical winter patterns.

Bass fishing has been best using finesse presentations, especially drop-shot rigged worms, along with crankbaits. One productive pattern has been targeting remaining patches of submerged vegetation in roughly 8–11 feet of water, where fish have been holding and feeding consistently. Another reliable option has been working shallow hard cover and structure in creek arms, where both drop-shots and squarebill crankbaits have been producing steady bites.

Overall, Inks Lake is offering solid winter fishing opportunities right now, especially for anglers willing to slow down and focus on quality structure and cover.

Solid fishing right now for numbers of bass with the occasional big bite! We are targeting submerged vegetation with drop shot rigged finesse worms and Texas-rigged stick worms.

Good fishing overall right now! We are catching them around rocky shorelines with Alabama Rigs and crankbaits. Water temps are hanging around 51-57 degrees. Water clarity is at about 4-6 ft.

    We had an excellent trip with Jake. He’s very knowledgeable and patient. Two of our three are brand new to fishing and he was incredibly helpful and made it fun. He was able to help the group catch a ton of fish, including personal bests for the more experienced angler in our group. He went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. Thanks Jake!
