Water levels are low for fall razorback sucker conservation activities, making the boat launch inaccessible to many vessels. Shore anglers and kayakers have had some luck landing striped bass up to 12 pounds. Rainbow trout action is expected to pick up with cooler weather. PowerBait and worms are the go-to baits for trout this time of year. Anglers have reported catching black bass and stripers at the south end of the reservoir. Largemouth are biting soft plastics in the shallows. Smallies are taking walking baits in the early morning. For a striper bite, try locating coves with signs of shad. Crankbaits and topwater lures in shad patterns will attract the fish in those areas.
