Lake Conditions – The lake is stained.

Lake Water Temperature – 84 degrees.

Largemouth Bass – FAIR/Good –The shallow water bite continues but is not as good recently. The fish can now be found shallow, deep and all areas in between due to the slightly cooler water temperatures. A shallow bite on topwater baits and shallow running crankbaits is occurring on seawalls and boat docks. Most of the action can still found away from the bank and in slightly deeper water on the main lake points, ledges and humps in water depths of 8-17 foot. Deeper running crankbaits and Carolina rigged plastics continue to take fish in those areas.

Crappie –GOOD –The crappie are in the lake’s underwater trees where they are biting both jigs and minnows. Find a good tree with fish and drop the jig or minnow straight down for the bite. Good fishing in the treetops will remain steady throughout the remainder of the summer and into the late fall. The fish will be located from 10-17 feet deep in the trees.

Striped/Hybrid Bass/White – POOR – A few fish are being caught using spoons and umbrella rigs on and around humps but that action is slow now.

Catfish – GOOD – The catfish are located in the main lake, larger coves and creeks. Early and late in the day will find the catfish most active. Cut baits of shad and bream or live shad and live bream are the best baits for larger channel, blues and flathead catfish.
