GREAT. Water stained; 89 degrees; 0.43 feet below pool. Catfish are spread out around the lake in 10-25 feet of water, especially near ledges and structure. Use catfish bubblegum, liver or stink bait, and try drifting natural baits over flats for a few bigger catches. Largemouth bass are active around deeper docks, offshore structures and brim beds. Schooling bass can also be found in 16-22 feet of water chasing baitfish. Bream are everywhere from 1 foot deep to 20 feet, holding near structure and docks. Great action on small jigs, minnows, worms or crickets – perfect for anglers of all ages. Report by Bradley Doyle, Bradley’s Guide Service. Crappie are finicky, finding them on structure and standing timber in 16-21 feet. Using minnows have been outperforming jigs this past week. Hybrids and whites are schooling well and providing good action, being productive using slabs, spoons or shad, finding them on flats and the edge of drop-offs in 12-30 feet. Check the tooth patch to see if it’s a white or hybrid on the Outdoor Annual app. Catching several juvenile hybrids lately. Always wear your life jacket and stay hydrated in this heat.
