Fish Report for 2-11-2022
The best action has been the catfish bite
2-11-2022
Chad Burton and Chris Borden
The lake is rising slowly and is currently at 11 percent capacity. The best action here has been the catfish bite. Anglers have been scoring stringers of catfish with dip baits, spoons and shad. The bass bite is still on the slower side with anglers having to put some work in to get a bite. Bass can be found off primary lake points in 20 to 35-feet of water with deep diving crankbaits, jigs, big worms, and crawdad imitation baits. The DFWL stocked trout here last week and its been steadily improving. Shore anglers have been scoring with trout jigs, garlic scented Powerbait, spinners and pinched crawlers. Boater anglers trolling leadcore near the dam with Tasmanian Devils, needlefish and flicker shad have found some takers. Crappie fishing is remains fair to good with live shiners and minijigs in 15 to 25-feet of water. The best action has come near offshore structure.
