GOOD. Water slightly stained; 86 degrees; 0.11 feet above pool. Catfish are still good. Seems like the spawn is winding down as few fish have eggs in them now and not nearly as bunched up on spots. There are lots more little bitty catfish being caught with some good eaters, and you can expect this to continue until the water cools in the fall. Largemouth bass are still doing good offshore and on docks working monster worms slowly. Report by Brad Doyle with Bradley’s Guide Service. Hybrids and white bass are scattered with some in schools in 18-26 feet of water. Fish are being caught with live bait, jigging a spoon, or trolling with a deep diver with a pet spoon as a trailer. Be sure to use a calmer jigging motion to get more hits. Crappie are in or around structure 12-21 feet using minnows, jigs, or hair jigs. The bite has been very light, and shuts off as quickly as you get one in the boat. Always wear your life jacket and stay hydrated in this heat. Report by Mike Cason, Fishical Therapy.
