Lake level is 705.43 with water temp in the lower 70's in the lower part of the lake.  The mid lake area is pretty clear. White bass action this past week was out of sight.  Whites and small hybrids were schooled on the shallow humps with some nice hybrids  in just a little deeper water near the humps. All caught on my 3/4 oz jigging spoons.  Green and white combo was the best producer followed by Green Chartreuse..Casting with a bouncing retrieve seemed to be the best pattern. Can't say much for crappie fishin this week as I didn't do any.  I saw a few at the cleaning station and the remarks were, hard to find and weed through the little ones.....  This will all change about mid October when the water cools some more. The weather is cooling off and I have a good schedule for October.  Get in on this white bass action. That's about it for  September 30, 2021. Help the other guy when you can and remember your life jacket works

Lake level is 706.18 with water temp in the upper 70's in the lower part of the lake.  The mid lake area is pretty clear. White bass action this past week was out of sight.  Whites and small hybrids were schooled on the shallow humps with some nice hybrids  in just a little deeper water near the humps. Archer is just 5 years old and he, his Dad Tyler, and Matt caught limits on 3/4oz green and white jigging spoons in 15-17 feet of water.  Archer is pictured here with one of his many catches.  The total catch is pictured above with Archer in the right hand corner checking his layout of all the fish.  Needless to say it was an exciting day for Archer.  In the third picture, Scott is showing off his best of the day while Jim was counting the fish.  These whites are in good size schools but really spooky on these bright sunny days, but they don't go far before they settle back down on the bottom. I can't say

Lake level is 705.73  with water temp in the upper 80's in the lower part of the lake.  The mid lake area is pretty clear.  The hybrid fishing was pretty tough as the live shad prevailed over a sassy shad imitation, but we did manage a few.  The white bass are breaking up into "wolf packs" and we have been able to take three to four before they spook.  Currently these fish are in the pound and a half to two and a half pounds. They are going after green 3/4 oz. spoons and also 1 oz green and white spoons.  Most of the fish have been caught in 12 to 17 feet of water. My crappie fishing has been next to nill, as most of the little fish are taking over the bite.  You have to catch 10-12 little fish before you get a keeper.  So I have used my time to go after the whites and hybrids.  Late September and October will see a change in the Crappie fishing as they begin the
