Best advise is to try 30-50 feet off shore and down to the bottom. I haven’t heard any luck fishing in the shallow water even in the warmest part of the day right now. Live worms and cut baits down 30-60 feet deep is where the bass are feeding and catfish are wandering. Crappie are down 10-25 feet. They are line shy so use 4 lb. test and a weighted jig head for best results with a look a like plastic minnow.

Catfish must have taken eh week off so no word on them. ...... Read More

Live Worms & Cut Bait Will Draw Some Attention

Live worms and cut baits will draw some attention even on the slowest days. ...... Read More
