Striped Bass: The striper bite has remained a bit stagnant with few fish reported. If you prefer to target this species we suggest using deeper diving hard baits or even trolling throughout the lake in hopes to connect to one of these beauties.

Bluegill: Medium action. Very possible to break wide open in the right spot fishing with mealworms or crickets. Use a bb split shot and wait for the strike on the fall.

Catfish: Slowed a bit this week but still catches being reported near the inlet.

Largemouth Bass: A few regulars have reported decent jerk bait fishing. Another successful bait of recent has been the good ole Senko, wacky rig preferred.

Trout: Next Stock of trout is 1/4/22.
