Hello from your Lake Jennings!

Wipers seem to have acclimated, and a few were caught over the weekend. Remember that the inventory is low, but more are expected to arrive towards the end of September. If fishing for Bass try the mats with a frog since the water level is down. This time of year your best hours for fishing are going to be the first few hours of daylight and the last hour of daylight. Catfish continue to be on the move with deeper water as their target area. Red Ears and Sunfish can be caught from early morning up to mid-day and just before sunset.

The campground continues to bring in a great crowd with only a few sites being left open for last minute plans. Reserve online or call for "Day of" reservations. During the week there are fewer campers, and shore fishing is available below the campground. Book now and enjoy the camping and fishing!

Best Catfish Spots: Deeper waters and the buoyline at the tower
Best Catfish Bait: Just about anything this time of year, Mackerel, Chicken Liver, Dough Bait and Nightcrawlers

Prognosis: This coming week will be our last three nights of Night Fishing (Friday-Sunday), and the lake will be open for Night Fishing on Sunday and open all day for Labor Day. The campground will sell out so if you want a spot book now. More Wipers should arrive around the last week of September coming in at 15" plus in size.
