How the Seasons Change Bandit

Spring on Bandit usually starts near the warmest protected bank, shallow wood or the first green weeds.

In fall, follow cooling water and moving bait toward points, green weeds and wind-hit banks at Bandit.

A Simple Fishing Plan for Bandit

Make the first trip to Bandit easy to read by fishing one shallow spot, one nearby drop and one piece of cover, then return to the type of water that gives the first solid bite.
