|---|---|---|---|
|
LM Bass |
Fair |
0.5-4 lbs |
Spring electrofishing indicated a high density largemouth bass population. Most fish were under 15 inches, although a few larger fish are available. Try using spinnerbaits fished near fallen trees for largemouth bass. |
|
Bluegill |
Fair |
Up to 0.33 lbs |
Fall test netting indicated a moderate abundance of bluegill. Most fish were under 8 inches, but some larger fish are available to anglers. Livebait under a bobber fished along the jetties can offer good bluegill fishing. |
|
Channel Cat |
Fair |
1-5 lbs |
Insufficient numbers of channel catfish were captured during fall netting to evaluate the channel catfish population. Try using shad sides fished along windswept banks for catfish. |
