Fishing Report
Tippah County Lake - 4/17/2024 10:40:44 AM| Species | Detail | |
| Largemouth Bass | Bass fishing is good. Jerkbaits and soft plastics are both good options right now as bass are moving shallow for the spawn. | |
| Crappie | Crappie fishing has picked up some recently. Most fish being caught are in the 9-11" range. Jigs, minnows, and vertically jigged blade baits are all good options. | |
| Bream | Bream fishing has been fair, but hasn't really taken off yet. Some quality redear can be caught tightlining worms along primary drop-offs and close to the creek channel. | |
| Catfish | No current reports on catfish. Making long casts out from points with tightlined worms and/or liver will be the best technique to use. | |

In January of 2020 and 2021, MDWFP personnel sank donated Christmas trees in Tippah Lake. The brush piles are a good way to upcycle leftover Christmas trees and create fishing hot spots.
