BASS
Bass fishing has been really good. With the overcast there have been some good hits on plastic worms. Majority of the fish reported were caught dropshotting purple plastic worms. Try using top water lures early in the morning in shaded areas.

STRIPER
Stripers are getting hit almost every day due to the overcast in the mornings. Try trolling white flies or scroungers in 30-50ft of water. Jesse Mena, pictured caught a 12 lb striper on the shoreline.

CATFISH
Catfish are still slowing down now. Typical bait for the cats are nightcrawlers, chicken liver and shrimp.

TROUT
Trout have been very slow. The best depth for the trout are under 80 ft of water. Try trolling your best lure by the west dam. We stock on Tuesday with 2000lbs. Best bait is powerbait or powerworms for these bad boys.

PANFISH
Redear , crappie and blue gills have been slowing down due to water temp. But we had a few reports that the 2nd set of ladders by the East Dam have been producing stringers of blue gill.
