Now is the time to fish for big bass at Jeff Davis.  The fish are bedding in shallow water and multiple fish over 9 pounds have been caught.  Soft plastic worms and lizards are working well.

Bream

Bream fishing is fair.  Jeff Davis has some healthy Redear Sunfish.  Earthworms fished on the bottom should produce some fish.

Crappie

Currently there are no reports on crappie.  Try fishing jigs tipped with small minnows in 10 to 15 feet of water.

Catfish

Currently there are no reports on catfish. Liver, nightcrawlers, or commercial stinkbaits work well fished on the bottom.

Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks Fisheries Biologists use various sampling methods to assess the fish populations in the State’s waters.   Sampling results for selected water bodies are summarized in Reel Facts Sheets.
