Lake Conditions – The lake is stained up the rivers and clear to lightly stained elsewhere

Lake Water Temperature – 74-77 degrees

Largemouth Bass –FAIR/GOOD – With the recent cooler weather that dropped the water temperature a few degrees more fish have moved to shallow water. A Shad Rap or a Zoom Trick worm has been good around docks in 6-10 feet of water. Buzzbaits. Rat-L-Traps, jigs and a small square bill crankbait will also take fish from shallow water around rip-rap, docks and seawalls. A good number of fish have moved into the coves and are feeding on shad. Keying on schools of shad is important now.

Crappie – VERY GOOD –The crappie bite is good with anglers trolling jigs and minnows over the deeper brushpiles and underwater trees. The crappie have begun moving into the mouths of large coves.

Hybrid/Striped/White Bass – FAIR/GOOD – Some fish are showing up in the Big Bend area and will take live bait.

Catfish – GOOD – The catfish have also taken notice of the cooler water temperatures and have begun moving out of the deeper water and into the larger coves. Smaller catfish can be caught with worms and other catfish bait but the larger catfish will bite best on live bait, cut bait or bream heads.
