Hello from Your Lake Jennings:
Trollers started to get limits but it took awhile. There was a good late afternoon bite using rainbow PowerBait at Eagle Point. The trick is to use a water float to get out into deeper water.

Cats continue to provide table fare but you need a boat. Bass anglers are getting 1 to 3 fish by fishing in 40 to 60 ft. water . Jigs and texas rigged baits on the bottom.

Best Trout Spots: The middle of the lake.
Best Trout Bait/Lures: 'Crawler/Orange Power Worm combo dipped in Pautzke nectar.

Best Cat Spots: Cloister Cove and the buoyline.

Best Cat Bait: Mackerel and chicken livers. Use scent liberally.

Best Bass Spots: The west side of Sentry and Eagle Point also the riprap that parallels the launch ramp. Be sure that you are fishing in 40 to 60ft of water.

Best Bass Lures/Bait: Creature baits and jigs.

Water Temp: 59 degrees.

Prognosis: We will stock again on Tuesday with 1000 lbs of Sierra Bows. Looking at these reports for the last few years and the bite was red hot by now. So we are on the verge of it busting loose.

Hello from Your Lake Jennings: The worm has turned! Last week, bankies did better than boaters on trout. Trollers hands down did better this weekend. The best trolling area was staying out in the middle of the arms and buoy area using crawler orange Power Worm combo. The trout when cleaned were stuffed full of shad. Bass anglers are earning their one's, two and threes either dropshotting or Texas rigged. Don't forget: We...... Read More
