Lake Conditions – The lake has heavy stain up the rivers but is lightly stained to clear in the main lake.

Lake Water Temperature – 55-60 degrees

Largemouth Bass – GOOD – The fish have moved into the coves in good numbers. Spinnerbaits, crankbaits, jigs and even Trick worms are good around docks, wood and any rocks in the coves. Some of the fish have moved a good distance into the coves so you need to work from the entrance all the way back. A large number of fish will be spawning in the next few weeks as the warmup of the water continues.

Crappie – GOOD – The fish are in the coves and creeks and are being caught by trolling (pushing and pulling) dark colored jigs due to the heavily stained water. One wave of spawning has been completed but look for more spawning in the next 1-2 weeks. The warm up will see crappie relating to shallow water especially around docks where shooting jigs will produce good catches during and after the spawn.

Striped Bass/White Bass/Hybrid Bass – Good – More fish are now showing up in front of the Wallace Dam where live bait is best but trolling will also produce some fish.

Catfish – NO REPORT
