The lake rose to over 50 percent of capacity with more rain on the way

Chad Burton and Chris Borden

The lake rose to over 50 percent of capacity with more rain on the way. Dedicated bass anglers worked finesse baits on main lake points and over submerged structure. The fish have been lethargic, but drop shot curly tail 4” worms, jigs, and spoons enticed a few bites. There’s a trout plant scheduled for the week of the 22nd. Recently anglers did well with Get Bent Minijigs, Trout worms, and dough bait. Catfish anglers used dip bait, cut baits, and chicken liver to fool whisker fish.
