Lake Dubarco

In Decatur County, Lake Dubarco is listed as a reservoir; my opening stop would be one promising area near the launch, and I would stay with it until I see a pattern develop in the first area. The first trip does not have to solve everything, so I would keep fishing one easy-to-read piece of water until I see a pattern develop in the first adjustment before I add more distance or tackle.

Lake Dubarco Size, Maximum Depth and Volume

Exact size and depth measurements are sparse for Lake Dubarco, so I would leave the figures unstated until a current management document publishes a figure and use one manageable piece of water until I get a useful answer from the first few casts.

Fishing This Water

Species information for Lake Dubarco is limited, so I would use a small tackle bag with a few soft plastics and live bait around one nearby section of bank and wait to specialize until I get a useful answer from the nearby water. I would choose one bait style that fits the target on Lake Dubarco, work it around one short section of bank, and keep it there until I get a useful answer from the opening stretch.

A Practical Lake Dubarco Game Plan

For a first trip to Lake Dubarco, I would fish one sheltered section of bank long enough to judge the plan, then change depth before changing every bait after I get a useful clue from the first area. After I get a useful clue from the first adjustment, I would give one straightforward shoreline stretch more time on Lake Dubarco instead of immediately looking elsewhere. Once I see enough in the first few casts, I would remember what worked around one promising shoreline stretch and begin the next trip to Lake Dubarco with that same clue.
