Bigger bass are being caught in the early morning with chatter baits as well as spinners. On the Del Diol side of the lake. Senkos are also working well in the dam area for bass. Crappie bite is extremely slow but a few have been caught near our handicap dock area on white crappie jigs. 

Catfish are being caught frequently in the narrows and also the dam side of the lake. Live nightcralwers and chartreuse red worms in deeper water are what is catching the catfish. Bluegill are being caught throughout the day on meal worms and nightcralwers. Tilapia are being caught very often on live nightcralwers.
