Trout Bite:
The trout bite continues to be fair. Majority of the trout caught were in deep waters. If your trying to target late season trout, try soaking your bait in deeper water.
Bass Bite:
The bass bite remains solid. Anglers reported bass are hitting soft jerkbaits and plastic worms. Bass are suspended off the points and cruising the shoreline in search of an easy meal. Pitching Flukes, Senkos, Ikas, or Brush-hogs into structure will produce. Drop-shotting the points is a proven method to put bass on the boat!
Catfish and Panfish:
Catfish- Dust off the heavy rod and your lantern, and kickoff Catfish Season with a big kitty. Come on out and enjoy Catfish Season Opener! Memorial Day weekend we will be open for night-fishing Friday, Saturday, and Sunday too! Catches of week:
