The last week has been perfect, and we don’t expect it to end anytime soon. The combination of great fishing, beautiful weather, and a long weekend set us up for the perfect kickoff to summer.
Anglers fishing the lake didn’t have to travel too far to find fish. Slot and trophy sized fish were found swimming in 6 to 14 feet of water in Four Mile Bay, the Lighthouse Gap and the Morris Point Gap. Anchored jigging with chartreuse, pink, white/pink combo and gold tackle tipped with a frozen shiner or live fathead produced some of the largest fish of the week. We expect the excellent fishing on the lake to continue as the water warms and the fish continue to move from the river to the lake.
River fishing has also offered anglers an excellent fishing experience. Like the lake, shallow, anchored jigging is the most productive method of fishing. The current on the river is pretty strong right now, so pack some extra weight for jigging. Gold, chartreuse and pink spinners are the tackle of choice.
