Fishing is really starting to come on. It was a busy weekend and nearly everyone that I talked to caught fish.

White Bass are finishing up their spawn. Trolling with Flicker Shad and Walleye Shad were working well in the Horseshoe Bend area over the weekend.

It looks like the Walleye are finally spawning. The males are in 6 to 12 feet of water on the rock points and are hitting Crawdad colored Crankbaits and also Jerk Baits. There were several limits caught over the weekend.

We didn't hear much on Catfish this week.

Crappie are at 25 to 30 feet and some are being caught at night with live minnows fished under lights.

Bass are good! I am seeing larger numbers of nice Smallmouth, 3 to 4 lbs., being caught than I can ever remember! There are also some really nice Largemouth showing up. Crankbaits and Jerk Baits are what I am hearing the most about. Red and Orange Craw patterns are working well on the Bass also. Chatterbaits are also catching right now.

Tip-Top Bass- 3/29-5 Fish Limit

1st Place-Tom Jessop-12.79 lbs.

2nd Place-Stephen White-12.27 lbs.

3rd Place-Valarie Grant-10.72

It looks like we are going to have a banner year for fishing this Spring so start making your plans to come to the Lake. If you have any questions you can give me a call or stop by the Store, I am always happy to help!

As always, I really appreciate your business!

See Catch of the Week!

 

Tight Lines and Good Fishing!
