Walleye-Fair-They are starting to come up into 25 to 30 feet of water. Jigs with Berkley Gulp Minnows are producing some on Main Lake points.

White Bass- Good-Vertical jigging with blades or slabs is still turning up some nice catches of Whites. There is also still a fair trolling bite using deep diving Crankbaits.

Catfish-Good-They have moved into 4 to 8 feet of water and are hitting Nightcrawlers, Chicken Liver, and Shrimp.

Bluegill-Good-Nightcrawlers are working well.

Bass-Good-Smallmouth are moving to Main Lake points in 15 to 20 feet of water. Texas Rigged worms or finesse baits worked on Drop Shot rigs are a good choice. Largemouth can still be found chasing Dragonflies in shallow cover.
