The catfish bite continues to get better as a few 7-8 pounders were brought in over the weekend with the use of cut mackerel and chicken liver. At a 2lb average, these kitties are being caught all over the lake. Fishing within 20-30ft of the shoreline with a good stink bait is almost a guaranteed hook up. The bass have been fairly active as well, primarily in the mornings due to heavy winds in the afternoon. Expect to hook up on a few more smallmouth than largemouth right now. Nightcrawlers, rattle traps, and deep cranks are still getting hit left and right. Local angler, Nick Giese, had a 20+ fish day this weekend consisting of nice smallies and catfish caught by Johnson Bay and outside the marina area.
