BASS
Live on spawn! Bass up in the shallows and staged of the points. There has been an onslaught of drop shot reports this week with everything from morning dawn to Aaron's Magic being credited as the bait of late. Brush hogs and lizards in watermelon and green pumpkin are great for the carolina. Senkos and Ikas in watermelon or baby bass, made the hot list this week. Swimbaits are catching big weights also. Zplugs, BBZ's, Huddlestons, Triple Trouts, and Lunker Punkers are just a few of the big baits for bass.

TROUT
DVL is all about big trout. Nightcrawlers, mini jigs, and trout worms were the most reported baits. Shore anglers seemed to do better than the boaters. The trout were caught in as little as 10 feet of water so light line is a must.

STRIPER
Striper were MIA this week. Stripers are always on the move, but the most consistent spots have been near the marina or the west dam. Anglers have caught striper on swimbaits, either trolling as deep as 50 feet, or casting near the marina.

CATFISH
The cat bite is back! Most catches are coming from the marina cove and the third cove to the right of the launch ramp. Most cut baits, nightcrawlers, or Hog Wild will catch the cats. Thie biggest cat reported this week weighed 23 pounds.

PANFISH
With surface temps still low the panfish bite has yet to ignite, but in the coming weeks you should be able to get your fill of crappie and bluegill. Live worms, jigs, or a cricket will be the ticket.
