Tombigbee State Park - 5/24/2023 3:34:42 PM| Species | Detail | |
| Largemouth Bass | The bass bite is fair. Anglers are targeting shallow cover early and late in the day with topwater lures like buzzbaits and poppers. During the day, anglers are moving a bit deeper and throwing Texas-rigs and crankbaits around structure. | |
| Crappie | The crappie bite is slow. Anglers are targeting cover in 15 – 20 ft of water with both minnows and jigs. | |
| Bream | Bream anglers are targeting the 2 – 5 ft depth range in pockets and coves with both crickets and worms. Any cover near traditional bedding areas is a good bet. Tightlining worms or crickets will usually get some bites. | |
