Sorry I haven't put up a report for a couple weeks but the fishing hasn't been good because of the water being let out of the res and all the catfish and such getting ready to spawn. But in the last few days we have had good reports of the fishing starting to pick up again. So here we are and we will try to let you know all we have been told about what is going on. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Crappie--they are picking up some good crappie at the city lake and at the res. You have to work for them some but they are there to be caught. In fact we have seen a few 14 to 16 inch fish and they sure look good. Most have been caught using minnows around brush and the rocks.--------------------------------------------------------------------- Walleye--most of the walleye that are being caught now are by people drifting the flats. But at the city lake some have been caught around the tower. Minnows and crawlers have been the best to lure this fish to your hook. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Bass----from all the reports we have got, the bass are doing pretty good at the lakes. We have had several bass fisher-people in from many places and they say they are doing good here. Crawlers and some lures are working great to get these bad boys. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Catfish--the way it looks most of the catfish are about done with the spawn now. They are starting to feed again and they are on the thin side as you would imagine. The ones that have been caught show the signs of just getting done. Same goes for the flat heads right now. The numbers being caught are getting better everyday. So far crawlers livers, minnows, shad guts & sides are working great for the channels. The flats are hitting good on perch, koi, and goldfish.
