Fishing Report
Bass | The bass bite it still slow, despite the dropping water temps. Bass are chasing bream in the shallows during twilight hours, and some smaller fish, 18" and under, are being caught. Target humps and drop-offs with shakeyheads or Texas-rigged worms during the day, or try shad-imitating lures in open water. |
Crappie | Using FFS or other electronics is going to give anglers the best shot at finding fish. Try targeting cover along drop-offs and along the creek channel with minnows, jigs, or small crankbaits. |
Bream | The bream bite is still slow. Tightlining with worms in about 8 - 10 ft depth has been productive along the wooden piers. Some quality redear are being caught along the earthen piers on worms. Crickets under a cork are always a good bet as well, but don't overlook small spinners, jigs, or your favorite fly-fishing setup. |
Catfish | Not many anglers are targeting catfish and the bite is off and on. Tight lining liver and/or worms off the wooden and earthen piers is productive. Stink bait, Kool-aid flavored hotdogs, and cut bait are also good options when trying to get catfish to bite. |
Reminder: All Walleye caught must be released immediately.
