Deepest you’ll fish?

This article got me thinking. I’ve been seeing large groups of bait in 40 plus feet deep with fish around, but will skip right over them and go hope to catch something on a point blindly.. I’d say I never fish deeper than 30. What about y’all?

500ft

I've fished in 35-45, but never caught anything. I think 32-33 is the deepest I ever caught one, and 30 is the deepest I would fish with any regularity.

During the Open last year on Table Rock I caught a lot in 60-84ft. It's a different lake for sure then what we have around here.

I've caught them deeper than 30 a few times, but 30 is usually my limit.

same here. Caught smallies suspending in around 40ft over 80ft. In tree tops.

I don’t personally fish deep but some friends fish for Striper a lot on Texoma at 50+ and often catch the smallies mixed in at that depth.

25 is my limit... unless the sonar is screaming at me

My confidence dips at 25 feet.

30 feet. Lol

110’ at the mouth of Cow creek on Amistad.

I hate fishing deeper than 20'. Catching them in deeper water is the skill I'm working to develop though.

about 300 yards. usually with a 10oz knife jig near an offshore oil rig big eye or blackfin tuna

No limit. Y’all can have the bank.

I have been getting that way over the last couple years. I hate fishing around 10 other boats hitting a line of bushes on the bank. give me an offshore honey pot and a jig!

East Tx about 24' but have caught them as deep as 30'.

I fished a Redman tournament on Toledo Bend once and the winner caught his fish in 50 FOW in some flooded timber. Evidently he knew how to fizz because none died. Deepest I fish is 35' and the fish are mostly suspended in trees are creek ledges. I watched a BASS tournament once I believe on Lake of the Ozarks and Larry Nixon was catching them in 80 FOW on Zara Spooks. Yep on Zara Spooks and won the tournament.

60’ in San Diego on San Vincent drop shorting for 8 pound + bass, 40’- 50’ on ray Roberts during late summer. I’d rather have that deeper water...

As deep as the bass are.

And mike, drop shorting? Is that a California thing?

That beats me James. Deepest I ever caught em was on Table Rock in October, 104' but we were catching them good on a dropshot about 45' down.

I caught em on a Spook in 60' on Lake Ouachita in Ark.

Its a West Coast Thing.....

35-40'

Were y'all drop shotting a spook at those depths?

^^^^^^^^^^THIS^^^^^^^^^^

They routinely get 100ft on Travis and amistad

I was Stitching a Yellow Magic....

40' to 60' in southern CA when I lived there. Drop shot fishing is your friend when the fish go deep in the winter.

Thinking that 20 ft is the length of your boat, 35 feet ain't that deep. I have caught bass in 40ft on Conroe. But that was one time in weather similar to this week.

patience, wow,

Caught some fish in 35' at Falcon once. Normally 25 is where we top out. We have tried deeper with little success

Have caught them power shotting in 100' on Amistad.

Deepest fish this year was right at 50' of water
But 35-40 starts getting uncomfortable for me

never had success over 35', but my success that deep is pretty recent. I'm trying to get better on the deeper bite. gaining confidence on the C-rig and the deeper crank-baits and big jigs. Still haven't produced on the bid spoon. I will get there eventually
