Fish Report

The lake held at 7 percent capacity and the fishing has been solid here. The crappie bite improved this week with reports of nice stringers of fish coming out. Fish can be taken on live minnows or minijigs from structure in 18 to 25-feet of water. The bass fishing has been solid, and the reaction bait bite continues for another week with quality bass showing in good numbers. Fish to 8 pounds were reported this week on crankbaits, big worms, jigs and spinnerbaits. The catfish bite remains very good in many areas around the lake and can be taken with Triple S Dip Bait, nightcrawlers and mackerel. Trout are fair to good for trollers by the Dam using lead core line with needlefish or flicker shad.
