The time is now! With daylight savings time in effect, this means more afternoon hours to "wet a hook." Along with the full moon this past Tuesday, fishing has come into full swing! Dallas Johnson at Ingram’s Marina, reports bass are being taken in the pads 3-6 feet deep. The "Military Bass Club" had a two day tournament, the winner weighed in 10 bass, tipping the scales at 31 lbs. The big fish at 6½ lbs. Several limits were reported at both local Marinas.
The campgrounds are full of RVs and 99.9% have a boat behind them. Talked to a crappie angler from Tennessee on Monday and he reported a good catch from up around the Iron Curtain on Thursday. He went back on Friday and counted 15 boats around the place he had fished. Crappie are moving into the shallows, around the lily pads, making it easier to catch a mess.
Sarah Johnson reported a limit (25) all going over 2 lbs with one weighing 2lb, 14 oz. using an Ultra Light Spinning outfit or a Fiberglass pole. Crappie are fun to catch and makes great fillets when deep fried with cheese grits, French fries and hushpuppies- a meal fit for anyone. Crappie time is here, so come on down.
Catfishing remains good as reported last week. Reports are coming in from night and day catches using prepared baits and worms.
Bream and shellcracker remain slow, but rest assured, with this weather and warming tempuratures the bream and shellcracker will begin to move and reports of catches will begin to come in. The lake level remains stable, water slightly stained and water temperature at 65 degrees. Get everything together and come on down, the fishing is fine!
Until next week, "Tight lines, Good fishing"
