Anglers are reporting the most consistent bass bite is taking place in the early morning. Smallmouth are hitting topwater lures and crankbaits, while largemouth are closing in on soft plastics. Striper anglers have had success working Rat-L-Traps and other crankbaits near coves. Willow Beach is still offering quality striped bass to anglers. Trout-patterned swimbaits are tempting fish lager than 10 pounds.
