How the Seasons Change Sides

As Sides warms in spring, check shallow cover and the first drop leading away from it. Summer fishing on Sides is often best along healthy weeds, clean pockets and the windblown side before the water gets too dirty. In fall, follow cooling water and moving bait toward points, green weeds and wind-hit banks at Sides.

A Simple Fishing Plan for Sides

Make the first trip to Sides 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.
