Lake Skinner Marina Staff

Lake Skinner Park Hours: 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM
Lake Skinner Marina Hours: 6:00 AM to 5:00 PM
Water Temperatures: 73 to 75 Degrees

Cooler waters are putting the fish on the move. Stripers Medium action. Trolling with umbrella rigs and nightcrawlers in the middle of the lake has worked best.
Catfish high action. Catfish bite is going strong. They are everywhere. Some of the bigger fish are being caught on chicken liver, nightcrawlers, and anchovies. They are all over but the East End has been the best.
Largemouth Bass Medium action near the tulles and reed beds. They have been hitting roboworms, sinkos and frogs. The Bass bite will improve as the water temperature cools.
Bluegill Low action from the 'gills. Anglers that have been catching them found the best action on the East End using wax worms or mealworms.
Trout The slowest action of the species mentioned. There have been some reports of a few Trout being caught by the dam.
