Not much has changed since last week. It is still August and it is still hot!
White Bass-They are pretty slow right now. I see them feeding on the surface some but I can't make them hit anything I throw.
Walleye-They are also slow. I have had a few reports from Bass fisherman catching a few Walleye on Drop-Shots and Neko Rigs in deeper water.
Catfish-They are fair using Punch Bait and Night crawlers on baited holes.
Bluegill are very good on Nightcrawlers.
Crappie-The only reports that I had this week were from folks fishing around the Marina at night with live minnows.
Bass-They are the only real bright spot this week.There were some good limits of Smallmouth weighed in over the weekend. Nearly everyone that I talked to was using some kind of soft plastics and the techniques varied. The one common denominator was they all were fishing deeper water that has some type of cover.

Hereford Bass Club will host an open tournament Sunday, August 16th, from 6:00 AM to 2:00 PM. You can enter Saturday here at Ruf-Nec Tackle or at the Marina parking lot Sunday morning before 6:00 AM.
With school starting, there is less traffic on the Lake week days. I hope to get out one morning this week and try to find a few of these Smallmouth!
As always, I really appreciate your business!
Tight Lines, Good Fishing, and Make 'Em Bite!
