| 08/05/2007 | I have been fishing daily all year, 7 days a week. The lake level has been dropping rapidly from 12 feet above normal, but lake is still about 8 feet high. One gate of the dam is open and only one ramp on the lake is open. Sand bass excellent, catching limits everyday. Lots of topwater action, lots of fish on slabs. Hybrid bite is the best I've seen all year, catching them up to 12 lbs. Catfish good up to 15 lbs. Black Bass fishing is so-so since lake is dropping rapidly, catching some on spinner baits and texas rig worms. When the lake quits dropping black bass fishing will get as good as we've ever seen. I have been seeing more 2-3 inch new hatch in shallows than I've ever seen. Haven't been crappie fishing in the last two weeks. |

Catching limits of sandbass everyday. Hybrid bite is a little slow right now, catching 5-6 per half day up to 8lbs. Black bass fishing is good on spinner baits and worms up to 4 1/2 lbs. Catfishing has been good for blues up to 10lbs. Crappie fishing is still slow but catching a few. If you want to catch a lot of fish up to 150 fish in a half of a day, sand bass is hard to beat. |
