Boaters fishing Callville Bay and the Overton Arm are catching striped bass and largemouth bass on shad crankbaits and swimbaits. In the Government Wash area, anglers are reeling in stripers, largemouth, catfish and bluegill. Try a topwater bait for a striper hit and rig a drop shot for largemouth. Smallmouth bites are hit and miss on the lake and the fish are showing preference for soft plastics rather than shad lures. Anglers looking for catfish are having the best luck using anchovies just after sunset at Hemenway.
