Fish Report for 1-28-2022
Stocked trout here last week and the bite has been steady
1-28-2022
Chad Burton and Chris Borden
The lake is slowly rising and is just shy of 11 percent capacity. The DFWL stocked trout here last week and the bite has been steady. Trout have come on Get Bent Baits, garlic scented Powerbait, spinners and pinched crawlers. Boater anglers trolling leadcore near the dam have had some luck with needlefish and flicker shad. The bass action has been slow to fair for most anglers. The best action has been off primary lake points in 30 to 40-feet of water with deep diving crankbaits, jigs, big worms, and crawdad Chasebaits. Catfish anglers have had some success this week with Triple S Dip Bait, cut baits and nightcrawlers. Crappie fishing is fair, and they are holding in deeper water around offshore structure. The best bet has been with live medium minnows and crappie jigs.
