GOOD. Water stained; 96 degrees; 0.29 feet below pool. Water temperature is 92 degrees in the morning reaching up to 98 degrees in the afternoon. Catfish are fair at best with fish scattered now that the spawn is over and the water is hot. There are a lot of tiny catfish mixed in with the good eaters, and a few trophy fish roaming baited holes as well. Report by Brad Doyle with Bradley’s Guide Service. Largemouth bass fishing is good fishing offshore structure with brush nearby using crankbaits, football jigs, and worms. Some bass are also starting to suspend chasing balls of bait in creek channels. Report by Roy Crush IV fishing. Crappie fishing has been hit-or-miss in 13-21 feet of water. Hair jigs from Lone Star Crappie Jigs have been producing better than plastics. Once you catch a few you might wanna move to the next spot, they have been turning off quickly. Hybrids and white bass are schooling in 14-23 feet of water. Use live bait such as shad, or large minnows, or troll with a deep diver with a pet spoon as a trailer. White or chartreuse slabs from MT Pockets have been working well, vertical jigging. Always wear your life jacket and stay hydrated in this heat. Report by Mike Cason, Fishical Therapy.
