The crappie and the catfish are biting. Yesterday, someone told me he caught some white bass. They plan to run the water through next Friday then they’ll announce what they are going to do.

It kills the floating when they run the water constantly, but it brings the fish up.

They have been buying lots of live minnows.

Our hours are 9-6 and Sundays 9-5.

Crappie are on standing timber in 20 to 30 ft. of water down about 10 ft.

I used a 1/16 oz. pink jig head with 1 – 1 1/4 inch plastic with some purple in it. I usually use a pink jig head.

The lake is 6.25 ft. high at 80 degrees.

Our hours are 8-5.

They are catching walleye bottom bouncing a worm on a jig head on the flats. Walleye are biting 30 to 40 ft.deep down by the dam on crank baits like a Flicker Shad. I haven’t heard of any crappie.

Our hours are 7- 7.
