GREAT. Water stained; 51 degrees; 0.15 feet below pool. Bass are good feeding on shad schools early in the morning then moving offshore as the day progresses. Swimbaits, chatterbaits, rattle traps, and Texas rigs are best. Catfish are great on baited holes with liver, catfish Bubblegum, and punch bait. Drifting natural baits will produce nice catches as well and quite a few trophy blues. Report by Roy Crush IV and Bradley Doyle, Bradley’s Guide Service. Crappie are being caught in 13-22 feet on or near standing timber and other structures. Minnows and hair jigs have been producing better than plastics. Many of the hits are light. Deadsticking for hybrids is on fire in 22-42 feet of water on flats and drop-offs. The ticket has been using a white and chartreuse teaser. Always wear your life jacket!
