Darren Burns, of Moss Bluff, shows off the 10.27-pound lunker bass he landed on March 20 near Mill’s Creek — the first of four lunkers landed on what proved to be an epic day at Toledo Bend.

Water Level Details
FAIR. Water normal stain; 73 degrees; 4.14 feet below pool. Windy weather in the forecast keeping anglers off the water. Expect the bass to be good shallow with chatterbaits, small spinnerbaits and swimbaits. Target fish in 1-5 feet of water in flooded stumps or shallow grass. The creek bite will take a few days to turn on after the water clears. Best baits are going to be lipless crankbaits, square bills crankbaits and Texas rigs in 6-10 feet. The deep bite will improve this week after the strong winds pass. Cast spoons, dropshots and tail spinners. No reports on crappie. Report by Stephen Johnston, Johnston Fishing.
