Striped Bass: Striped bass have picked up this week, the inlet is finally refilling the lake slowly so that should become the hot spot once again. Try jerkbaits, swimbaits or shad, ramp 2 has been the hot spot as well.

Bluegill: Medium to slow action for bluegill using mealworms or crickets. A mining tipped with some meat can be an extremely productive method.

Catfish: Catfish bite has definite slowed although some angels have still been successful this past week, cut bait over by Ramp 2.

Largemouth Bass: Largemouth bass bit has been pretty steady. The water level has dropped significantly so you will need to explore new territory. However the water level is rising slowly.

Trout: Stockings are back to regular scheduled dates, being every other week. For best results try to come target trout as soon as possible after a delivery of fresh fish. Use powerbait or mini jigs. Last trout stock was Jan. 4th.
