Fished a tourney there last year in February, all I can say is capitalize on every bite you get. Cuz there more than likely wont be many lol. Good looking lake though, pretty fair water clarity. Caught our few fish on square bills, and broke off on a decent bite flipping a paca craw around grass mats. Weighed in 3 fish. We stayed on the southwest fork of the lake. I would say that area is your best bet.

ive heard swimbaits can produce well up there

I'd just go for the reaction bite. Find grass throw frogs or hit some good looking banks with KVDs sexy dog. Some reason that bait produces in clear water. Other than that, I'd fish slow with some flukes, wackies or something like that. Square bills doesn't sound like a bad idea either, that can be good reaction bait.

If you find good grass and have some sun I would definitely throw that fluke weightless and work it fast. Like a topwater walking the dog.

I dont really fish there but I used to hunt there. If you have a map find valentine lake rd. The far west end of the lake crosses under a bridge on that road. Tons of grass beds above and below the surface. There is also a small creek running into the lake right there. The mouth of the creek is right at the bridge. Not sure if the actual creek is accessible anymore. Been a while since I've duck hunted or frogged there. If you can squeeze in there and hug the right bank there is a small pass that goes back into the brush and opens up for about a half acre. We called it the gator hole. Its a nice open hole with scattered cypress trees. Water in the hole is ranging from 3-5' deep. Hope that helps you bro. Good luck

Oh yeah. Forgot to tell you, that lake is full of freaking jackfish.

Jackfish???

Pike

Thanks! I kinda thought that. Just never heard em called jack fish before

Pike, jackfish, crankbait and spinnerbait thieves. They fight hard but are a pain in the azz.

Thanx for all the info guys I really appreciate it and yea jack fish caught me off guard the first time I heard it from a guy at Indian creek , I was like huh!! 😕Jack fish "saltwater"? Lol

Lol I thought the same thing, then that's all I wanted to catch to see what it was.. Couple weeks later I realized I've been catching them the whole time...

^^^ This area ya best bet.

I have an uncle that lives in Elmer and he fishes there often. He suggested using watermelon blue colored baits. He said look for grass and ditches with patches of grass throwing flukes or wacky in above color. If you throw a crankbait he suggested throwing the bluegill bandit in the 200 series.

I live close by and fish there often. Agree with recommendation on west end grass beds.

Kincaid and Indian Creek get a bad rap as far as bass fishing. I even heard one biologist say it was because both lakes are nutrient poor, and so fish production is low. But the standing crops of bass in both lakes are still decent, about 30 lbs/acre. As for the pike - chain pickeral to be exact - they eat real good if you know how to filet around the bones.

I heard the banjo minnow works like a charm on that lake, along with the mighty bite!

Lol what about the mighty bite o or a helicopter lure
