Fishing Report
| Bass | The bass bite seems to be slowly picking up. Bass are chasing forage species pretty heavily in the shallows, and any shad-imitating lure (ie. walking lures, poppers, swim baits, etc.) are going to be your best bet. Slowly fishing soft plastics or jigs may get you a strike from bigger fish, but those bites are few and far between currently. |
| Crappie | There are no current reports on 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 has picked up some, and some large redear (shellcrackers) are being caught by bank anglers on redworms fished on the bottom. Crickets under a cork are also a good bet, but don't overlook small spinners, jigs, or your favorite fly-fishing setup. |
| Catfish | The catfish record set a week ago has already been broken again. A 26.7 pounder was caught recently on kool-aid and garlic-marinated chicken livers. Getting creative with the bait seems to be working well for anglers. |
Reminder: All Walleye caught must be released immediately.
