Fishing Report
Lake Lowndes - 4/17/2024 10:28:35 AM| Species | Detail | |
| Largemouth Bass | Bass fishing is fair to good. Most fish are being caught in 5' of water or less. Jerkbaits, jigs, and T-rigged soft plastics are all good choices. | |
| Crappie | The crappie bite has picked up some. Jigs or jig/minnow combinations will be the best bait choices. | |
| Bream | Bream fishing is fair. Tightlining redworms, nightcrawlers, or mealworms works well, as do crickets. | |
| Catfish | Target the creek channel and around the deeper points with night crawlers, cut shad, and/or liver. Tight lining is the most popular technique for catfish. | |
