Bass action has slowed in the past week. Some good fish are being taken by fishing red mud points with stumps. Long tapering points on islands are also producing fish on deep diving crankbaits and plastic grubs. Spinnerbaits slow-rolled in shallow water early in the mornings will take some fish. Crappie action is fair over […]

Striper fishing is slow but picking up. The fish have moved near the dam and can be found from Buoy 2 to 4 with trolling still producing the better catches. Bass fishing is slow with most fish being caught in 10-30 feet of water on deep diving crankbaits and Carolina-rigged plastics. Try a bucktail jig […]

Rattling crankbaits and plastic lures in pumpkinseed or june bug colors are taking largemouth bass. The fish are located in 17-30 feet on main lake points. Crappie are located on […]

Striper fishing has been excellent. Nutbush Creek from Buoy A-C and the main river channel between Buoy 2 and 7 have been producing nice catches trolling white or yellow bucktails or Cordell Redfins. Live shad and jigging spoons are also taking fish. Bass action is good with early mornings being the best time. The fish […]

Bass are still feeding. Spinnerbaits in the coves with particular attention to points are a good choice. Creature baits dropped into the middle of buckbrush will also take the finicky fish. Jerk baits fished parallel to buck brush banks are accounting for good fish. Carolina-rigged lizards are taking lots of fish on main lake and […]
