Fishing Report - Updated 08/27/2025
| Species | Detail |
|---|---|
| Largemouth Bass | Bass fishing has been good. Target bass on flats, up creek channels, and in the stumps. Creek channels on the upper end near emergent vegetation are also excellent places to get try. Try fishing crankbaits or spinnerbaits. Fishing slower using soft plastics on either Texas or Carolina rigs may be effective as follow up baits. Bass fishing should start to heat up with the cooler weather we are seeing this week, with a possible topwater bite in the early morning hours. |
| Crappie | Crappie fishing has been good. Look for crappie to be moving out to timber and creek channels, along the dam and around millionaires point. Try to target schools of fish using minnows or jigs. The cooler weather this week should help get crappie moving as well. |
| Bream | Bream fishing has been fair. Bream should be holding in 2 and 6 ft. of water around brush piles or other types of natural structure. Bigger bluegill and redear are holding in deeper water. Try using live baits such as crickets or worms on the bottom or near deep structure. For a challenge try fishing small beetle spins or pick up a fly rod. |
| Catfish | Catfishing has been fair. Catfish can be targeted with trot lines and jugs out in open water. They will most likely still be holding out deep. Tightlining on the bottom with liver, worms or blood baits may be effective. |
