Striped Bass: Chicken liver or cut bait down at the dam and inlet area will work best. Lake Skinner is now open fully and ready to be fished.

Bluegill: Mini jigs tipped with a mealworm or cricket are usually most productive. Small rooster tails or kastmasters can also be very effective.

Catfish: Use chicken liver, anchovies, or mackerel on the bottom throughout the lake but especially near Ramp 2 or the inlet area. Catfish is picking up lately.

Largemouth Bass: Jerk baits are very effective currently for active fish. Creature baits can work well for the more lethargic fish.

Trout: Trout plants are now over

Carp: No action to be reported.
