Anglers are finding good fishing for the various species of bass found in the reservoir. Out of Cottonwood Cove, the smallmouth, largemouth and striped bass have been hitting mostly on anchovies. Striped bass can be found in 50 to 60 feet of water while the largemouth and smallmouth are in weed beds at depths of 20 to 30 feet. Catfish are taking night crawlers, anchovies and processed stink baits.
