When fish are found, anglers can load the boat, but finding them is the trick. Best action is coming from midlake and downlake areas, and seems to be centered around the points halfway back in the creeks and in the edges of the flooded cover in the coves.
Spinnerbaits, plastic worms and jig ‘n pig are taking most of the fish, although topwater baits are accounting for some fish early and late in the day.
