BASS
Bass are still boiling first thing in the morning. Top water action has been fair to good. A lot of fish reported were caught on scroungers, flukes, and other shad imitation plastics. Drop shotting and texas rigging colored plastics such as, oxblood, hologram shad, purples, and green have still been producing limits of bass. The Bigger fish are in 25-40 ft of water. Shad are along the south shore as well as some areas on the north side of the lake.

STRIPER
Fish are still boiling in the early mornings. Fishermen have still been getting their limits. Cut bait such as, sardines, anchovies, or mackerel, have been most productive. Some of the stripers reported this week caught trolling white flies or spoons on leadcore, 4-6 colors out. James Smelt and Evaristo Rodriguez (in picture above) caught their limit by the East Dam.

CATFISH
Few catfish reported this week. Anchovies, shrimp, chicken liver, and night crawlers have all been working well.

PANFISH
Not as many limits were reported this week. The bluegill and redear that were reported were all caught on mealworms, crickets, or night crawlers. Few crappie reported this week.

TROUT
No trout reports as of lately.
