GREAT. Water stained; 60 degrees; 0.13 feet below pool. Over the last week water temperature started out in the low 40s in the back of the creeks and 50 degrees on main the lake then increased to 75 degrees in the back of the creeks to 65 degrees on the main lake. Most fish are scattered but eating. Bass have been plentiful up shallow and on near bed structure. Catfish have been everywhere from 1-50 feet deep. Crappie have been on the move, but slow to bite. Report by 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. Hybrids are still being caught, but have been scattered due to the warm weather. Target fish in 16-24 feet on flats and drop-offs trolling or using slabs. Always wear your life jacket! Report by Mike Cason, Fishical Therapy.
