Me and (3) buddies are planning a trip to Big Lake for March 11, 12 and maybe the 13th. One of us has been there a few times, but the rest of us are Texas bass fishermen who haven't been to the lake and don't know much about fishing for Reds or Trout, but would like to have a productive trip if possible. I have been reading about using Topwater plugs like a SheDog or Super Spook and fishing soft plastics (hackberry hustler or Gulp swimming mullet/grub) on a popping cork or jighead. I'm trying to get an idea of what I need to buy for the trip that time of year. Is the fishing typically best for Reds and/or trout around that time? If anyone wouldn't mind sending a few suggestions for baits or fishing tactics for early Spring, it sure would be appreciated. Fishing areas would be nice too, but I'd be happy with some lure/rig suggestions to point us in the right direction more than anything. Thanks in advance for any tips...
