Hello from Your Lake Jennings: Most fish in the lake had lockjaw. A few nice trout came from Cactus Patch and the Hermit Cove buoyline on crawlers. Interestingly crawlers produced more cats than mackerel. Normal incoming storms will boost a bite but Sunday was the worst day of the weekend. The lake is on the rise having come up 4' in the last week. This has pulled most of the bass off the bank into 20 to 40 ft. of water on the points.
Best Trout Spots: Cactus Patch and Hermit Cove, kind of.
Best Trout Lures / Bait: Inflated crawlers on a 4 ft. leader dipped in scent.

Best Cat Spots: The dam buoyline.
Best Cat Bait: Mackerel. Use scent liberally.

Best Bass Spots: Off the points dropshotting Margarita Mutilator 4" worms in deeper water .
Best Bass Lures /bait:
Water Temp. 67 to 68 degrees

Notables: Sun., Ricky Nejig, 9 yrs old, Morgan Hill, 2-4 bluegill, crawdad, Eagle Point.

Prognosis
: We will add another 1000 lbs. of trout on Tuesday of this week. The best chance for trout is from a boat around the Cactus Patch and Hermit Cove. Cats will be deep until we get some runoff or March. Whichever comes first. Open on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, 5:45 AM to 5:15 PM. Prime times for both cats and bass are 5:30 AM to 9 AM and 4:30 to dark thirty.

The Lake Jennings Free Fishing University will be teaching bait fishing for trout at 1 PM on Sunday.

Hello from Your Lake Jennings: While the trout were in the spotlight they did a lousy acting job. The best actor award went to the largemouth bass and the best supporting actor was taken by the cats. None of them gave stellar performances. The trout bite was as expected with fish scattering all over the lake. The best results came from Cloister Cove but fish were caught at Eagle Point and Siesta Cove. The bass bite remains best...... Read More
