GOOD. Water stained; 60 degrees; 0.57 feet below pool. Catfish are great in 10-45 feet on baited holes using catfish Bubblegum, liver, worms, minnows, shad, or punch bait. Drifting natural baits has been producing good catches and some trophy class as well. Largemouth has been fair on jerkbaits and deep cranks on offshore ledges and plastics worked slowly through the brush. Crappie have been fair and some nice catches reported, but everyone is out there after them and it is a matter of finding a spot that has not already been drained prior to your arrival. Report by Brad Doyle with Bradley’s Guide Service. Hybrids have been schooling in 18-36 feet hanging on flats and drop-offs. Many folks are trolling with a deep diver and a pet spoon trailer, others are using slabs jigging for them and getting ready for deadsticking when the water temperature drops a little more. Always wear your life jacket! Report by Mike Cason, Fishical Therapy.
