The hot weather has hampered the fishing throughout the day, but anglers are getting in on some action during the early morning and evening sessions. Our contacts reported decent topwater action in the early morning. They’re also getting some takers on frogs, creature baits, Senkos and Keitechs. An occasional crappie has been coming on minijigs and small crankbaits. The bluegill bite continues to be excellent on any live small worm. Carp can be found with dough baits.
