Hello from your Lake Jennings. The trout bite started out hot on Friday but as the weekend progressed the bite did not. The bass bite is improving. They are stacking on the points in the morning at 35 to 40 ft. and then moving into the 15 to 20ft. in the later afternoon. The cats continue to be conspicuous by their absence.

Best Trout Spots: Eagle point was better than Cactus Patch. Sentry Point also kicked out some limits.

Best Trout Lures/Bait: Rainbow Power Bait on 2 ft. leaders moved constantly or Little Cleos, Orange Rapalas, Orange Power Worms, Rebel Teeny Crawdads slow trolled. You would only hooked up on every 5th strike but strikes averaged 20 per hour.

Best Catfish Spots: The buoyline off Eggert Point and Hermit Cove.

Best Catfish Bait: Mackerel and nightcrawlers. Use scent liberally.

Best Bass Spots:Sentry and Eagle points.

Best Bass Lures/bait: 4" dropshotted morning dawn worms. Water Temp: 60 degrees on surface.

Prognosis: We will again stock 1000 lbs of Sierra 'Bows on Tuesday. The trout fishing should be very good. We start seeing bass move into the shallows when the slimy green filamentas algae starts growing just like it is now. January and February are the best times to get big bass on swim baits.

Notables: No fish over 3 pounds or limits under  ? hour reported.
