Author: Stripers: Striper fishing is good all over the lake right now. Overcast days are best. Schooling action all over the place. Lots of fish are being caught, but not many keepers. Rattletraps, bucktails, jerkbaits and spoons are all working great right now. Bright, sunny days would be live bait fished on downlines and freelines. Also, bottom bumping spoons also works great.
Largemouth Bass: A lot of bass are being caught right now. Fish in the back of creeks where here is bait present. Shad raps and small crankbaits are working great right now. Secondary points will call for Zoom trick worms fished on shakey heads. Most bass being caught right now are in the one to two pound range.
Shellcrackers: Fishing is great around secondary points, humps, and shallow flats right now. Five to fifteen feet of water is best. Try using redworms and baby nightcrawlers on mini Carolina rigs and split shot rigs. This is not a quantity bite but a quality bite. Most fish being caught are very nice sized.
Catfish: This bite is great right now. You can anchor down in the back of creeks where there is bait and catch really nice sized channel cats on cutbait. Twenty feet or less is great. Or you can drift fish in twenty to thirty feet of water with fresh cut bait also. Catfish are biting really well right now.
White Perch: This is for all you diehard perch jerkers out there. This bite is getting better and better with the colder weather. Perch are feeding heavey right now in the back of the creeks. Twenty five feet of water and less. Half ounce Berry Spoons are working great right now. Also, drop shot rigs catch a lot of fish. The colder it gets, the better this bite will get. Remember there is no limit on white perch. Use the small ones for catfish bait.
He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. Psalm 91:1
